CP1E-N30DR-A Omron New Original Plc Programming module Industrial Automation Controller

2. Key Selling Points

1. Compact 30-Point I/O with Relay Outputs & PNP Inputs: Provides a balanced total of 30 digital I/O points (typically 18 inputs and 12 outputs) in a compact design. Features 12 mechanical relay outputs and sourcing (PNP-compatible) inputs (indicated by the "-A" suffix), making it ideal for systems using common PNP sensors and requiring flexible switching of AC/DC loads.

2. Versatile Relay Output Capability: The 12 relay outputs can switch both AC and DC loads and handle high inrush currents (e.g., for lamps, solenoids, contactors, or alarms). This flexibility allows direct control of diverse field devices without needing additional interface relays, simplifying system design.

3. High-Speed Counter and Pulse Output Functions: Supports high-speed counting up to 200 kHz on dedicated inputs (X0, X1), enabling precise encoder-based feedback for speed, length, or positioning tasks. It also provides high-speed pulse output (up to 100 kHz) on Y0 and Y1, allowing direct integration with stepper or servo drives for basic motion control.

4. Dual Built-in Communication Ports: Equipped with both a USB (Type B) port for easy programming and HMI connectivity, and an RS-232C serial port for connecting to HMIs, barcode readers, printers, or other serial devices—providing robust, module-free communication options for various applications.

5. Optimized for PNP Sensor Integration: The sourcing (PNP) input configuration (-A model) is designed to work seamlessly with PNP-type sensors, commonly used in European and global machinery, ensuring straightforward wiring and reliable signal reception.

6. Expandable and Easy to Program: Despite its compact size, it supports expansion with CP1W-series function units (e.g., analog, temperature, communication) for future scalability. It is fully programmable using Omron’s CX-Programmer or Sysmac Studio software, supporting all IEC 61131-3 programming languages for flexible and efficient development.
