EZRackPLC Industrial Modular Rack PLC Features:

Highest Reliability and Noise Immunity in industry.

EZRackPLC has been designed to meet the HALT/HASS standards that are used for electronic products used in the space program for shuttle launch, which means high shock and vibration along with thermal shock. In addition the EZRackPLC has a very high immunity to noise.

Easiest Drag-n-Drop FREE programming software with Advanced math, PID, and Function blocks

Programming software is extremely powerful yet simple. It is intuitive, and has already been used by tens of thousands of engineers without ever attending a class. Buy a Starter Kit and experience it yourself.

2 EZRackPLC's ($308) for the cost of 1 Automationdirect Do-More PLC.

PLCDirect before it became AutomationDirect in 2000 made its name by offering 2 for 1, that is two of their PLCs for one of Allen Bradley. In every bench mark, now you can get two of EZRackPLC's for one of Do-More/BRX PLCs, and ours are Designed and Made in America, but shipped to you Factory Direct to save you the 50+% of mark-up of the national importer. For more details check the comparisons. For example, you can configure an EZRackPLC with 44 I/O: 16 DCI, 16 DCO, 8 AI and 4 AO for $645. Equivalent Do-More prices out at $1114. EZRackPLC has a number of features not available in Do-More, such as built-in IIoT MQTT with Spark Plug B support, EtherNet/IP Scanner, Adapter, Explicit/Implicit messaging, Break-point debugging, Virtual PLC Simulation without PLC hardware, USB program upload with out software and OEM Packager.

IIOT ready EZRackPLC with MQTT for data-logging & Ethernet IP Scanner with both implicit and explicit I/O messaging

EZRackPLC is our latest entry in the PLC world. It is exceptionally innovative with its IIOT ready MQTT with Ignition Sparkplug B protocol, a very tough mechanical design for IO retention, variety of 16 Point IO modules, Built in Ethernet, USB ports for programming and local data logging, Micro SD, and two serial ports. Its Ethernet IP Scanner allows it to control the entire network of Rockwell and compatible devices. It has both explicit and implicit I/O messaging. It comes in 3, 5, and 7 module bases not counting the CPU. It also has 16 bit Analog IO. It is the most advanced PLC in EZAutomation offering and a great value.

Most advanced Programming Software of EZRackPLC with Project Simulation and Debug.

EZRackPLC programming software is the most advanced software in our offering. It has additional features of Break-point debug, Project Simulation and advanced Function blocks. IO assignment is automatic wherever you decide to put your IO modules.

EZRackPLC I/O with patent pending design to avoid tab broken tabs.

Automationdirect DL205 series was for sure 2 for 1 of AB, but it had a nagging problem and still has one. The IO modules get locked into the rack but the tabs break, constantly. EZAutomation designed its rack so that its modules fit both in EZ and DL racks. In the process, our mechanical engineers solved the problem of broken tabs and a lock-in without the tabs, both is ADC and EZ racks.

Modular Expandable to 112 I/O in one package

EZRackPLC is availble in 3, 5 and 7 slots each capable of handling 16 I/O points for a total of 112.

Status LED for each I/O in every model.

We have served the Automation industry since 1968. In fact, one of the AVG divisions, Uticor is the inventor of PLCs themselves. We have been around the block and totally understand the value of maintenance and down time in a manufacturing plant. We always make troubleshooting as convenient and EZ as possible. That is why, all our IO points have an LED right next to the output terminal and the terminal block is always Ezily removable and plug-in.

EZRack DC Input I/O has another innovative unique feature in that there is a RED/GREEN bi-color LED for each input indicating if it is sourcing input or sinking input.

Program Upload through USB flash drive.

EZRackPLC program can be uploaded to its CPU thru the USB port without the need of laptop, cable and a software.

USBs for local data-logging.

If you need massive amount of data to be logged from a PLC, EZRackPLC is the best choice. It has a local USB port and of course it’s built-in IIOT compatibility allows the PLC/Process data to be stored at convenience for years.
