TW Controls - Allen Bradley Micro850 PLC Trainer with Analog, AC Drive, Motor, HMI
SKU: TRN-ICP-MICRO850-HMI
Our trainers are designed with all of the common control components that you will see on industrial equipment to give you a solid foundation to build your skills on.
Automation equipment can be found in every manufacturing plant in your community, commercial buildings, stoplights, and even amusement park rides.
This is the most comprehensive PLC trainer covering most aspects that you will see in an industrial control panel including:
Allen Bradley Micro850 PLC . Uses the free Connected Components Workbench software.
Discrete includes 14 discrete 24VDC inputs and 10 discrete 24VDC outputs.
Analog includes 2 analog inputs capable of 4-20mA / 0-10VDC and 2 analog outputs capable of 4-20mA / 0-10VDC.
Allen Bradley Powerflex 525 Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is 120VAC wall powered and outputs 230VAC power to the 3 phase motor. Controls can be hardwired or over Ethernet/IP.
Panelview 800 HMI touchscreen which uses the free Connected Components Workbench software to program your operator interface.
Siemens Scalance Layer 2 Industrial Managed Ethernet Switch supports advanced networking features including cyber security, Ethernet/IP, Profinet IO, VLAN, and redundancy.
