The OMRON CP1E-E40DR-A is a compact, cost-effective, all-in-one programmable logic controller from OMRON’s popular CP1E series. It’s designed as a versatile workhorse for basic to intermediate automation tasks, replacing traditional relay panels and offering advanced features in a small footprint.
The “LOT SEO PRODUCT” designation typically indicates that the unit is being sold as part of a lot or surplus inventory (“LOT”) and may be “New Other” or used, but is in good, functional condition (“SEO” often stands for “Sealed / Excellent / Original”).
Key Features & Breakdown of the Model Number: CP1E-E40DR-A
Let’s decode the model number to understand its capabilities:
-
CP1E: The series name. This is OMRON’s “Compact,” “Economy,” and “Easy” line of PLCs, aimed at providing essential control at a competitive price.
-
E40: Specifies the I/O (Input/Output) configuration.
-
40Â Total I/O Points:
-
24 Digital Inputs (sinking or sourcing)
-
16 Relay Outputs
-
-
-
D: Indicates the power supply type.
-
DÂ = 24 VDC Power Supply. The PLC itself requires a 24V DC source to operate.
-
-
R: Indicates the output type.
-
RÂ =Â Relay Outputs. Relay outputs are versatile, allowing them to switch AC or DC loads. They are ideal for controlling devices like contactors, solenoid valves, small motors, and indicator lamps. Key specifications:
-
Max Switching Capacity:Â 2A per point @ 250V AC / 24V DC.
-
Advantage:Â Voltage-independent (can switch AC or DC).
-
Disadvantage:Â Mechanical lifespan (number of cycles) and slower switching speed compared to transistor outputs.
-
-
-
A: Denotes the product version or revision. The “A” version is a common and well-supported iteration of the CP1E series.
