Why Choose the IMO I3C12Z/13C14-SCHF i3C Intelligent Control Station?

The IMO I3C12Z/13C14-SCHF is a versatile all-in-one PLC, colour touchscreen HMI and I/O controller designed for industrial machinery, process control and automation systems. As part of the IMO i3C Intelligent Control Station series, it combines programmable logic control, operator interface, integrated digital and analogue I/O and industrial communications within a single panel-mounted unit, helping reduce component count, wiring and control-panel complexity.

The controller features a 320 × 240 colour graphical touchscreen display with 32,768 colours and six programmable function keys, providing operators with an intuitive local interface for machine control, process monitoring and alarm handling. Two RS-232 / RS-485 serial communication ports, CAN connectivity, USB and MicroSD™ support provide flexible options for programming, communications and data handling.

With 12 digital inputs, 12 transistor outputs, 2 universal 14-bit analogue inputs and 2 12-bit analogue outputs, the I3C12Z/13C14-SCHF is particularly well suited to applications requiring both discrete machine control and precise analogue process control. Its universal analogue inputs support thermocouple, RTD, voltage and current signals, while the analogue outputs provide voltage or current signals for compatible drives, actuators and process equipment.

Integrated PLC, HMI and Analogue Process Control

All-in-one controllers such as the IMO i3C combine functions traditionally provided by separate PLC, HMI and I/O devices. Integrating these functions into a single control station can simplify panel design and machine wiring while providing operators with direct touchscreen access to process values, machine status, alarms and control functions.

The I3C12Z/13C14-SCHF is particularly suitable for applications involving temperature measurement and analogue process control. Its universal analogue inputs can interface with compatible thermocouples, RTDs, voltage signals and current transmitters, while its analogue outputs can provide proportional voltage or current references to variable frequency drives, actuators and other process-control equipment.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial machinery and machine control systems.
  • PID temperature and process control.
  • Packaging and production machinery.
  • Variable frequency drive control and speed reference applications.
  • Temperature monitoring using thermocouples and RTDs.
  • Pumps, fans and process equipment.
  • Conveyors and material handling systems.
  • OEM machinery and industrial control panels.
  • Automated production and assembly equipment.
