The Micro870? PLC is a high-performance solution for controlling large standalone machines. With a robust memory of 280 KB (up to 128 KB user data and 20,000 program steps), it offers flexibility and scalability for complex control tasks. It supports up to three Micro800 plug-in modules and eight expansion I/O modules, facilitating a maximum of 304 I/O points. Additionally, the controller is equipped with embedded communication ports, including USB, serial (RS-232/RS-485), and Ethernet, enabling seamless integration with modern automation systems.

The Micro870 PLC is ideal for applications requiring fast and reliable communication, including those with Ethernet/IP and secure DNP3 protocols. It is also designed to be compatible with Connected Components Workbench? software, providing a familiar user interface and easy integration with existing control systems like MicroLogix? controllers. The system offers superior connectivity with Class 1 implicit messaging, better performance in I/O response and code execution, and simplified integration with PowerFlex? 520 series and Kinetix? 5100 drives.

The controller also supports microSD? cards for program transfer, datalogging, and recipe management. With a temperature operating range of -20 to +65 ?C, the Micro870? is durable and suited for a wide range of industrial environments.
