Product Description:
The leading supplier B&R Automation engineered the HCM01-A which is compact controller device and belongs to renowned HCM Maestro PLC Modules lineup. This commercial unit accepts a 24 VDC power supply to keep power rails stable under industrial loads. Digital and analog inputs support versatile data acquisition for mixed‑signal processes. Such mixed‑signal capability enables a single unit to monitor disparate sensors that drive efficient control loops. Moreover, the module also delivers digital and analog outputs that permit direct actuation of relays and proportional valves.
PROFINET and <
Onboard IEC 61131‑3 ladder and function block diagram programming languages of HCM01-A enable engineers to deploy familiar code structures. Featuring 128 KB program memory, this advanced device can handle moderate logic loads. Weighing just 250 g, the module adds minimal mass to rail assemblies. Additional characteristics include a response time of 5 ms, thus ensuring swift signal reactions and uphold process integrity under rapid cycling. Screw terminal connectors afford secure wiring that resists vibration‑induced loosening. CE, UKCA and UL certifications confirm compliance with international safety standards. Offering a storage temperature range of -20°C to +70°C, it makes the module withstand off‑line transit and harsh storage conditions.
