Wide operating temperature range

The sturdy electronics design of the iE 650 PLC gives it a design lifetime of 10 years at

40 °C ambient temperature, and the ability to operate from -40 to 70 °C. As a result,

you can use the iE 650 PLC all over the world. It can start from -40 °C and can be stored from -40 to 85 °C.

It will operate at a relative humidity from 5 to 97% (condensing at 55 °C).

This contributes to lower service costs, and the long lifetime ensures high value for

your investment and minimises electronic waste.

Robust and well protected

The iE 650 PLC is designed for robustness based on the proven AWC 500 design.

The base-mounted rack design makes the iE 650 PLC resistant to bumps (25 g),

shocks (50 g), and vibrations, even during transportation.

The backplane interconnection of the I/O modules ensures reliable communication in harsh

environments, avoiding long-term damage often seen with slide-in contacts.

The flanges ensure improved grounding to increase protection against EMC, and its built-in

protection circuits safeguard the controller from surges and fast transients up to 4kV, electrostatic

discharge up to 6kV.
