The Omron CP1W-20EDT1 PLC Expansion I/O Unit extends a compatible Programmable Logic Controller system with additional digital connections for controlling field devices in industrial machinery. Its output section includes 8 sourcing transistor outputs, providing electronic switching for automation applications where transistor-based output control is required. The module has a current consumption of 130 mA at 5 V and integrates with the CP1W expansion architecture to increase the I/O capability of the connected controller. This allows additional output points to be incorporated as machine control requirements grow while retaining the existing PLC platform. The CP1W-20EDT1 is part of the CP1W Series and connects with the wider transistor output PLC range available from Omron industrial automation.
