JZ20-R16 Unitronics JAZZ OPLC,Disp2X16,10/6IO,AN,USB

Why Choose the Unitronics JZ20-R16 Jazz PLC with Integrated HMI?

The Unitronics JZ20-R16 is a compact micro PLC with integrated textual HMI designed for small automation systems and OEM machine control. As part of the reliable Unitronics Jazz™ series, this all-in-one controller combines programmable logic control, operator interface and built-in I/O in a single panel-mounted device, helping reduce system cost and wiring complexity.

The controller includes a 2 × 16 character LCD display and a 16-key membrane keypad with programmable function keys. Operators can monitor machine status, alarms and process parameters directly on the controller without the need for a separate HMI panel.

The JZ20-R16 provides a versatile built-in I/O configuration including 6 digital inputs, 2 configurable digital/analogue inputs, 2 analogue inputs and 6 relay outputs. Two of the digital inputs can operate as high-speed counters for applications such as encoders or fast sensors.

The controller operates on a 24 V DC power supply and is programmed using the free Unitronics U90 Ladder development software, which combines ladder logic programming with HMI configuration in one environment.
