Designed for small standalone machines and simple automation tasks, this compact unit integrates 12 discrete DC inputs and 8 robust relay outputs directly into its chassis. It provides an ideal solution for replacing complex hardwired relay logic, delivering reliable control for applications ranging from conveyor systems and packaging equipment to building automation and lighting control. We supply this item as a 100% Brand New, factory-sealed unit.

Technical Specifications

Engineering Advantages

Robust Relay Output Versatility
The 2080-LC20-20QWB features 8 integrated relay outputs, each rated for 2 Amps at both 240V AC and 24V DC. This dual-voltage capability allows you to directly control a diverse mix of AC and DC loads—such as motor starters, solenoid valves, and indicator lights—without the need for external interface relays, significantly simplifying your control panel wiring and reducing overall hardware costs.

Compact and Expandable Architecture
Weighing just 0.28 kg, this controller is engineered for space-constrained installations. Despite its compact footprint, it offers exceptional expandability. The built-in 10V auxiliary power supply supports connected sensors or thermistors, and the controller readily accepts Micro800 plug-in modules, allowing you to add analog I/O, high-speed counters, or communication ports as your machine requirements evolve.

Efficient 24V DC Power Integration
Designed for standard industrial control environments, the unit operates on a regulated 24V DC power supply (20.4 to 26.4V DC). With a highly efficient base power consumption of only 5.62 Watts, it minimizes heat generation inside your control cabinet, ensuring stable performance and prolonging the lifespan of surrounding electronic components.

FAQs
