Product Description:
The ECPE42-2 is a B & R compact embedded controller suited for industrial automation applications. It functions as a versatile programmable logic controller and motion controller, facilitating centralized coordination of complex machine processes. This controller supports high-speed logic execution, precise motion sequencing and scalable application programming.
The ECPE42-2 runs B&R’s Automation Runtime software, supporting IEC 61131-3 PLC programming languages. This software environment allows developers to work in familiar programming languages such as Ladder Diagram (LD), Structured Text (ST) and Function Block Diagram (FBD). This compatibility ensures that users can implement complex control strategies using industry-standard tools, accelerating development while minimizing learning curves. The integration of B&R’s Automation Runtime also ensures long-term software support and compatibility with other B&R components, enhancing adaptability across diverse automation environments.
The ECPE42-2 includes a CANopen interface for device networking. This allows it to efficiently manage a decentralized architecture, reducing wiring complexity and facilitating modular system design. It also features serial interfaces (RS232/485) for compatibility with legacy devices. These interfaces ensure that older equipment can be integrated into newer automation systems without needing costly upgrades or replacements. The controller comes equipped with a USB port for configuration and diagnostics. This interface provides convenient access to the controller for diagnostics and software updates, enhancing usability. This unit is designed for fanless operation and supports a wide operating temperature range, typically from 0°C to 60°C. The controller is designed with high electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) immunity, ensuring data integrity, even in electrically noisy conditions. This product is available from Wake Industrial with a 1-year warranty. This product is also eligible for same day, worldwide shipping.
