Ease of Control
A 4 button keypad and large alpha-numeric display make it easier to quickly navigate through an extensive range of software functions.
Fully Configurable
The PL/X is fully configurable by the user and comes equipped, as standard, with a comprehensive suite of application blocks.
Fully Controllable
Centre winding macros, spindle orientation and a fully controllable field allow you to control DC motors in a wide range of industrial applications. The PL/X also includes PL Pilot, a windows based, configuration and monitoring software package.
Motor Protection
The extensive range of motor protection features improves your productivity by reducing your downtime. And the unique configuration checker quickly detects any conflicts in your own user-generated configurations.
Simple Integration
To make it easier for you to integrate the PL/X into your control system, the drives are fully isolated and have a small footprint. The PL/X has a number of fieldbus communications options, including: Profibus, DeviceNet, CC-Link, EtherNet/IP, Modbus and CANopen.
Powerful Ethernet
All PL/X models are compatible with drive.web. The drive.web distributed control technology uses Ethernet and powerful graphical tools to provide robust Programmable Peer Control (PPC) for drives and systems.
