WAGO PFC300 Controller (Item no. 750-8302)

Multi-Protocol Controller with Cloud Integration & Advanced Cybersecurity

This controller supports multiple fieldbus protocols including EtherNet/IP Adapter and Scanner, EtherCAT master, PROFINET, MODBUS TCP, and MODBUS RTU. IIOT protocols including OPCua and MQTT can also be enabled for connection to Cloud servers.

By using the controller’s Web Based Management System and programmed with CODESYS 3.5 software, system configuration is easy. The USB-C service port provides direct access for programming, configuration, and firmware updates. It also comes TLS encryption, VPN capabilities, and a built-in Firewall for ultimate cybersecurity.

The PFC300 comes equipped with an advanced dual-core, 64-bit processor and extensive 2 GB of RAM memory, making it an optimal choice for complex applications.

Product Features

The PFC300 Controller is a compact PLC for the modular WAGO I/O System. Besides network and fieldbus interfaces, the controller supports all digital, analog and specialty modules found within the 750/753 Series.

Two ETHERNET interfaces and an integrated switch enable line topology wiring.

An integrated Webserver provides user configuration options, while displaying PFC300 status information.

Besides the processing industry and building automation, typical applications for the PFC300 include standard machinery and equipment control (e.g., packaging, bottling and manufacturing systems, as well as textile, metal and wood processing machines).
