IDEC Corporation has expanded its MicroSmart FC6A All-in-One PLC family with three 12 VDC CPUs, giving end users, designers and OEMs more options for automating battery-backed equipment.
Many applications require 12 VDC power. Smaller smart relays may support too few I/O points and lack enough programmability, while more full-featured PLCs are too expensive and don’t provide the necessary I/O voltages. The 16 I/O FC6A All-in-One CPUs with 12 VDC enable these PLCs to handle over 100 I/O points in an economical and expandable form factor.
Still included are all of the standard FC6A All-in-One features, including Ethernet, USB and serial connectivity; SD memory slot; replaceable battery; HMI module; up to three I/O expansion modules with removable terminal blocks; and easy expansion of communication ports.
The rugged form factor can with withstand -25 to 65°C operating temperatures and Class I Div 2 environments. Users can configure and monitor the PLC using the WindEdit app for iOS and Android over Bluetooth and Ethernet. The popular Modbus TCP and RTU industrial protocols are built in, as are data logging and web server functions.
The updated modules available for the FC6A All-in-One 12 VDC CPUs are the FC6A-C16R1DE 16-point 12 VDC relay output module; the FC6A-C16K1DE 16-point 12 VDC transistor sink output module; and the FC6A-C16P1DE 16-point 12 VDC transistor source output module.
