The class 400 programmable logic controllers provide optimum control for demanding automation tasks. For example, in control processes or as the central controller in large systems.
You can therefore automate complex networks efficiently, such as painting lines in the automotive industry or wind farms.
Standard-compliant charging – configurable and communicative EV Charge Control
The following control and monitoring functions are defined for charging electric vehicles on the AC mains according to IEC 61851-1/Mode 3:
- Control Pilot evaluation and control
- PE contact monitoring
- Evaluation of the proximity
- Control of the charge contactor and locking actuators
EV Charge Control also offers the following options:
- The device can be configured quickly and easily via DIP switches for a wide range of applications
- Adjustable charging current limitation from 6 to 80 A
- Automatic rejection of charging cables with low current carrying capacity – parameterizable
- Integration into your charging infrastructure via Ethernet interface with Modbus/TCP
- Charging process enabling, status requests, and dynamic load management via remote access
- Free assignment of the outputs via the web server
- Secure plug release in case of mains failure with the optional lock release extension module
From a simple wall box to complex installations consisting of individual or networked charging stations.
With EV Charge Control, you can easily implement wall boxes, e.g., for private locations, without any
significant additional outlay.
- A key switch is used for enabling, for example.
- No additional control is required for the contactor which acts as a switching element.
EV Charge Control also offers all the key functions for use in charging stations for public locations.
- The charging plug is securely locked in place.
- Central computers can access the devices via Modbus/TCP communication.
Axiocontrol – fast, robust, easy
The controllers in the Axiocontrol range (AXC) are the ideal solution when it comes to high demands on performance and robustness. Together with the Axioline F I/O system from
Phoenix Contact, Axiocontrol controllers offer maximum speed thanks to direct bus connection.
- Choose the AXC 1050 for small to medium-sized automation tasks and benefit from the Axioline F local bus, PROFINET, Modbus/TCP, and an integrated UPS, for example.
- The AXC 3050 is the ideal controller for medium-sized to complex applications in which networking options as well as a particularly short processing and response speed are required.
Inline controllers – proven flexibility
Inline controllers (ILC) are the proven standard in Phoenix Contact's PLC portfolio. The controllers support all common communication paths, such as Ethernet or mobile phone.
In addition, they can be easily extended with Inline I/O modules and offer an integrated web server.
- Class 100 Inline controllers are at the heart of the Easy Automation system. This means intuitive programming with free PC WORX EXPRESS software, flexible expansion with Inline I/O modules,
and high function density at a fair price.
- Class 300 Inline controllers meet high demands in terms of data throughput and networking. You can therefore reliably control medium-sized to large applications,
such as those based on PROFINET.
ME versions – perfect for machine building
The ME versions of our ILC controllers have been specifically developed for the requirements of machine building. For example, for addressing drives via step motor drivers or
frequency inverters.
The controllers offer all the functions of ILC class 100 and come with pre-installed functions for machine building.
This means that various drive types can be controlled and sensors can be connected without any additional external modules.
Depending on the version, analog or incremental input channels can be used for position detection.
Easy Automation – automation with the modular class 100 controllers
Modular class 100 small-scale controllers are at the heart of the Easy Automation system from Phoenix Contact. As the interface between the control center and I/O level,
they efficiently control the data flow within your system.
With class 100, easy automation includes: intuitive programming with free PC WORX EXPRESS software, flexible expansion with Inline I/O modules, and high function
density at a fair price.
Powerful and stable – the Valueline industrial PC as a PLC
The PC WORX RT BASIC software PLC from Phoenix Contact is a cost-effective alternative to a conventional PLC.
The software PLC transforms your industrial PC into a combined control unit, operator interface, and visualization unit
in your automation system.
Stable operation, thanks to separate operating system extension
- PC WORX RT BASIC enables you to control your system in realtime.
System operation is particularly stable, as a realtime extension is installed in addition to the standard Windows operating system.
- This realtime extension, INtime from TenAsys, can shield the realtime control part from the Windows environment. The integrity and deterministic behavior of the controller is therefore protected.
Reduce product costs
Reduce your automation costs.
This can be achieved in the wiring by connecting sensors and actuators to the control level.
You can reduce the costs associated with planning, assembly, startup, and documentation.
Fast, error free and uniform
VARIOFACE system cabling from Phoenix Contact reduces product costs – thanks to quick, error-free, and uniform system wiring.
Three components – one systemThe system configuration consists of three components:
- Front adapter
- System cable
- Termination board
Individually adapted to the application
The individual function of each channel can be adapted to your application.
This is achieved using a PLC relay combined with a V8 adapter or a termination board.
V8 adapters are available in various versions:
- With 6.2 or 14 mm design width for 8 PLC-INTERFACE
- "IN" version for input cards
- "Out" version for output cards
- Standard connection for positive switching cards
- "M" version for negative switching cards
