Banner Engineering’s R50C MDR Controller helps keep control of conveyors and other equipment in one system and gives system designers more efficient control of motor driven rollers using a PLC. Modbus® communication, two configurable I/O channels, and a 0–18 volt analog output provide precision MDR control for a variety of conveyor systems, as the R50C is compatible with many different types of MDRs with integrated controls. Standard A-coded M12 connectors for sharing signals, and L-coded M12 pass-through connections for daisy chaining up to 16 amps of motor power, simplify installation of multiple motor driven roller controllers on a conveyor. With its compact sealed housing and connectors, the R50C can be used in refrigerated, wet, and other challenging environments without needing an additional protective enclosure. Additionally, photoelectric sensors can be easily integrated to create a complete conveyor control system, detecting the leading edge of a package and enabling zone control.
FEATURES:
- 0–18 volt analog output provides precise speed control for both regular and high-speed motor-driven roller systems.
- L-coded M12 pass-through connections handle up to 16 amps of power that can be shared among all controllers in series to satisfy higher-current demands of motor-driven rollers.
- Motor power and device controls are on separate circuits, maintaining communication with the R50C while a connected safety controller can cut power in stop conditions.
- Can be used in refrigerated, wet, and other challenging environments with IP67-rated fully sealed housing and -40° C to 70° C operating range.
