The new control panels with Windows CE from Phoenix Contact combine controller and operating unit in one device. They are available as models CP 306, CP 310, and CP 312. The functionally identical panels differ only in the dimensions of the colour touch displays (6", 10", 12") and the number of function buttons.
Four digital inputs and outputs, respectively, and a serial interface are provided on the back of the device. In addition, the Interbus master and the Ethernet interface that are both integrated into the device offer unlimited expansion capabilities.
Mechanical and plant engineering solutions for controlling, operating, and monitoring can be economically and efficiently created with these controllers. They are programmed using the PC Worx automation software from Phoenix Contact in the five languages of IEC 61131. The applications for controlling, operating, and monitoring are stored on a compact flash card.
The design of the front to protection Category IP 65 and the compact housing make the control panels suited to use in control boxes directly at the machine or system.
