Eaton - Maximum functionality on a minimal footprint: new generation of XC204 modular PLCs
For small and medium-sized applications
Eaton's new generation of XC204 modular PLCs offers maximum functionality on a minimal footprint of 104 x 29 x 80 mm. The PLC is a flexible solution for standard automation tasks such as control and regulation functions. It comes into its own perfectly in small to medium-sized applications in serial machine and system construction. Different versions of the XC204 ensure that every machine or process automation engineer is assured of a suitable solution for his or her specific challenge.
Key specifications:
- Programmable with CODESYS 3
- 100 Mbit/s Ethernet interfaces with own network adapter, standard serial interfaces, USB host, 2 digital inputs/outputs
- Modbus TCP client/server, OPC-UA server, Ethernet IP, EtherCAT, CANopen, Modbus RTU, RS485
- Remote web visualisation thanks to HTML5 standard
- Pluggable connections (Push-in & Plug-in)
- Compact design, tool-free mounting
The local I/O of the XC-204 can be expanded up to 16 I/O modules of the modular XN300 system. Separate Ethernet interfaces and additional standard serial interfaces allow use in different system architectures. As a result, the XC200 acts as the universal control and communication point within a networked system. External I/O units (XN300) and third-party devices can be easily integrated.
The XC204 is designed according to Eaton's 'secure-by-design' concept. Eaton implements the latest technology standards in communication and security.

Sekisui AlveoRead moreFoam producer Sekisui Alveo has a large factory in Roermond. To support production and maintenance, warehouses and distribution points with thousands of different items are spread across the various halls. Think spare parts, personal protection equipment and consumables. The company cooperates intensively with itsme for management, such as recently with the step-by-step introduction of vendor managed inventory (VMI) for the grab stock of mechanical items.
-
IECRead moreTo control the expansion of a silo park, engineering & construction company IEC called on Breemes. Being involved in the engineering from the beginning, the electrical service provider was able to make smart proposals for both the low-voltage part and the PLC control. ‘We have always been able to find each other well and when changes occurred, we were quickly on the same page with Breemes.’
-
Heliox - Charged for DeliveryRead moreHeliox, a developer and manufacturer of charging systems for electric buses and trucks, was already working with itsme when production still took place in the Netherlands. Today, production has shifted to Slovakia, Portugal, and Moldova, and is also happening in the US. itsme remains the “irreplaceable” partner for the supply of electrical components and cable harnesses.
-
BLOK System SupplyRead moreBlok System Supply and itsme have maintained an intensive relationship for many years. Early last year, this was further deepened with electronic data exchange via the Smart Connected Supplier Network. ‘It saves an enormous amount of time and reduces errors. We always have real-time information automatically.’ However, time for personal contact is not saved. ‘That is precisely what makes itsme a very nice party to work with.’
