AC500 - ECO
ABB's AC500-eCo is a cost-effective scalable compact PLC series for modern industrial automation applications where small and flexible PLC solutions often represent the ideal solution.
Scalability
Save money by starting small; The flexibility of the AC500 platform allows you to scale up as needs dictate.
- ABB's AC500-eCo is designed to integrate seamlessly into the wider AC500 family, giving you the decisive benefit of having a fully scalable and modular system.
- The AC500-eCo allows the creation of individually customized solutions for small applications using the S500 and S500-eCo I/O modules.
- The already numerous onboard I/Os in AC500-eCo V3 PLCs can be expanded using up to three option boards that add more digital or analog channels or isolated or non-isolated serial interfaces.
- Therefore, it will be easier to meet customer and application-specific requirements, reduce the footprint and save money.
- Available for the entire AC500 PLC series, the Automation Builder engineering suite will save you time with easy configuration and many libraries and function blocks for a wide range of customer-specific requirements.
Easy use and flexibility
- The user program can be downloaded via memory card without the need for programming tools.
- CPUs with integrated I/Os are available for small to large applications.
- Motion I/Os allow you to perform simple point-to-point movement in up to 4 axes.
- Pre-wiring is possible using plug-in terminal blocks.
- The modules can be mounted on the DIN rail with an easy-to-use snap-on mechanism.
- The AC500-eCo is approved for customer use by accredited certification bodies worldwide. This means the entire range is safe, reliable and can be used globally.
