High performance PLC
10 March 2014
New from Panasonic Electric Works, the FP7 Series range of high performance modular Programmable Logic Controllers has been designed with no constraints from previous generations of Panasonic PLCs.

Compact and powerful, three CPUs have been introduced that are distinguished by memory capacity and Ethernet communications capability. All CPUs can be expanded with up to 64 expansion units and additional RS232C, RS485 Communication modules. Powerful Ethernet communications can be realised with a built in 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T Ethernet port and future expansion cassettes.
I/O expansion of the system can be realised with various modules including digital I/O in 16, 32 and 64 point density and relay/PNP/NPN output modules, and analogue I/O of 4 channel density supporting multiple voltage and current ranges.
