PLC controller LS Electric XEC-DR60SU

Compact PLC controller LS Electric XEC-DR60SU – reliability and versatility in automation

The XEC-DR60SU PLC controller is an advanced device from the XBC/XEC series, designed for a wide range of applications in industrial automation. It is characterized by high performance, flexibility and ease of programming. It is a solid solution for both professional installers and end-users looking for a reliable control system.

Functionality and expandability

This model offers 36 digital inputs (DI) and 24 relay outputs (DO), allowing you to handle a variety of signals and devices. It also has 16 PID channels for precise process control and 8 HSC (High-Speed Counter) channels for fast pulse counting. The built-in RTC (Real Time Clock) enables time-based functions without the need for additional modules. The controller supports pulse positioning for two axes, reaching a speed of 94 ns/step, which is crucial in applications requiring precise movement.

The program memory with a capacity of 200 kB provides sufficient space for complex applications. Communication is via RS-232, RS-485 and USB ports. The ability to expand the system with 7 optional modules allows you to tailor the controller to the specific needs of a given project. A power supply in the range of 110-240 VAC ensures compatibility with different voltage standards.
