MX220/2G | Bachmann | 2-Module Width PLC CPU with PSU

Product Overview

The MX220/2G (Model: MX220/2G) is a high-performance, compact processor module belonging to the Bachmann MX200 series. Designed for the M1 automation system, this unit combines a powerful CPU with an integrated power supply unit capable of powering both the controller logic and connected I/O modules. The MX220/2G (Part Number: MX220/2G) is engineered for exceptional environmental robustness, featuring a fanless design and specialized conformal coating that allows for stable operation in extreme temperatures ranging from -30 °C to +60 °C.

This platform is optimized for small to medium-sized applications requiring deterministic real-time multitasking. Whether managing machine control, basic motion sequences, or complex condition monitoring, the MX220/2G (Order Number: MX220/2G) provides sufficient CPU headroom and versatile communication interfaces within a space-saving two-module width. Its scalable programming model ensures that applications developed for this unit can be easily migrated to more powerful M1 CPU models if performance requirements increase.
