Product Description

The body of the 8AC140.60-1 industry controller is said to have been optimized for operation in the most aggressive and even normal environments. The unit has an x86 based CPU running at a frequency of 100 MHz clipped to the Intel CPU family. The device has an onboard DRAM of 8MB in addition of 32kB of SRAM, which adequately satisfies the requirements for operation. In addition, compact flash has been adopted for the application memory storage or program storage. Thus, installing new software is simplified through the use of a removable Compact Flash.

There is one CAN port, one Profibus-DP slave port and one RS232 port available on the module for connecting to automation networks and these interfaces are defined as the I/O interfaces of the module. Also, for the advantage of the system's design approach, there is an option of configuring the program memory in a different way.

The 8AC140.60-1 module weighs 4.0 kilogrammes, with dimensions of 70.5 millimetres in width, 375 millimetres in length, and 235.5 millimetres in depth. Moreover, it weighs 70.5 millimeters. This module incorporates a power supply rated at 24 volts direct current (VDC), with a maximum current capacity of 2.5 amperes. Furthermore, there is also a hold-brake motor which draws additional current. The module was designed with an overall covering of IP20, which entails that it safeguards against liquid the only but also shields against foreign substances larger than twelve millimetres. Regarding temperatures for the apparatus used during operation, the range is between Zero and Fifty degrees Celsius, while that of storage is between Minus Twenty-five and Plus Fifty-five degrees Celsius. This means that the 8AC140.60-1 is not limited to a particular operational zone only.
