Micro850 Programmable Logic Controller (2080-LC50-24QBB)

The 2080-LC50-24QBB is a Micro850 programmable logic controller from Allen-Bradley, with 24 embedded I/O points consisting of 14 digital inputs and 10 transistor sink outputs, and 24 V DC power. It belongs to the Micro800 family, which is aimed at stand-alone machine control with a simple software environment, Connected Components Workbench. The controller provides an embedded EtherNet/IP port, a USB programming port and a non-isolated serial port, with plug-in modules adding extra communications, analog I/O or memory. Expansion I/O modules can be added to extend the system up to a larger number of points. The controller supports motion functions with pulse train outputs, high speed counters, and PID loops, and programs can be written in ladder logic, function block diagram and structured text. Typical applications are small to mid-size machines such as packaging equipment, material handling, pumping stations, and simple process systems, where cost and ease of use are the priority.
