The ABB AC500 PLC Range
AC500-eCo
The eCo range is designed for smaller and simpler automation tasks. These PLCs are compact, cost-effective and often include inputs and outputs built directly into the CPU. They are a good fit for standalone machines, basic process control and applications where space and budget are both important.
AC500 PLCs
This is the standard AC500 range and covers the widest set of applications. These PLCs are modular, meaning you can add expansion modules as your system grows. They suit general-purpose industrial automation, from machine control to building and infrastructure systems.
AC500-S
The S stands for safety. AC500-S PLCs are used when safety functions are required, such as emergency stops, safety doors or light curtains. They are designed to meet recognised functional safety standards and are commonly used in environments where protecting people and equipment is critical.
AC500-XC
XC stands for eXtreme Conditions. These PLCs are built for harsh environments where temperatures, vibration, humidity or electrical noise might be a problem. AC500-XC controllers are ideal for outdoor installations, heavy industry and demanding applications where reliability is essential.
Built for Modern Connectivity
One of the biggest strengths of the ABB PLC platform is its extensive communication capability. The AC500 range supports a wide variety of industrial protocols allowing ABB PLCs to connect easily with drives, HMIs, SCADA systems, cloud platforms and existing plant equipment.
Ready for Industry 4.0
As digital transformation continues across industry, ABB PLCs are designed to support modern data-driven operations. Features such as MQTT communication, OPC UA connectivity, HTML5 web visualisation and secure remote communications make it easier to integrate automation systems with cloud services and business intelligence platforms.
Simplified Engineering with Automation Builder
ABB's Automation Builder software provides a single environment for PLC programming, safety applications, HMI development, motion control and commissioning. Supporting IEC 61131-3 programming languages, it helps engineers reduce development time while maintaining consistency across projects.
