Hilscher NFX8M Series Gateway Server for Use with IIoT

This gateway server connects industrial networks to IIoT ecosystems, enabling protocol translation and edge-level data handling in non-hazardous environments. Designed for factory and plant-floor use, it provides a compact, rack-friendly Interface that integrates with automation and electrical systems while conforming to recognised international approvals.

• IP20 enclosure protects internal electronics while permitting cabinet mounting
• Supports IIoT deployments to enable local data aggregation
• Complies with UKCA, CE, RoHS and FCC standards for regulatory interoperability
• Designed for non-hazardous area installation to fit standard plant zones
• Offers protocol gateway capability to bridge diverse industrial networks

• Suitable for connecting PLCs to Cloud platforms in manufacturing plants
• Ideal for edge data collection in automation cabinets
• Used for integrating sensors and actuators into IIoT frameworks
• Can be used for protocol conversion between legacy and modern systems

The unit carries an IP20 rating, meaning it is intended for installation inside control enclosures or protected cabinets rather than exposed or wet locations.

It holds UKCA, CE, RoHS and FCC recognitions, supporting deployment across regions that require those standards.

No, it is specified for non-hazardous areas and should not be used where intrinsic safety or explosion-proof certification is required.

It acts as an IIoT gateway, aggregating device-level data and translating protocols to facilitate edge-to-cloud and local control interactions.
