The Omron CP1L-M40DR-A is a compact, high-performing PLC CPU unit from the CP1L series, designed for industrial automation and machine control applications. This unit features an AC power supply operating at 100-240 VAC and provides 40 total I/O points: 24 digital inputs (24 VDC) and 16 relay outputs (2 A, NO contact type). It offers a program capacity of 10,000 steps and 32,000 words of data memory, supporting Ladder Diagram and Structured Text programming languages. The controller includes a standard peripheral USB port for programming and communication, 4 high-speed counters (up to 100 kHz, single-phase), 2 pulse outputs for positioning control, 6 interrupt inputs, and an optional expansion capability up to 160 I/O points using CP1W series expansion units. Designed for DIN rail mounting with a compact footprint (110 x 150 x 85 mm), it is suitable for a wide range of industrial machinery and automation applications requiring reliable control with embedded connectivity.
