Wago 750-8000 Basic Controller 100

Why Choose the WAGO 750-8000 Basic Controller 100?

The WAGO 750-8000 is a compact programmable logic controller (PLC) designed for distributed automation systems using the WAGO I/O System 750. Known as the Basic Controller 100, it provides reliable control for small to medium automation tasks across industrial, process and building automation environments.

The controller communicates via dual Ethernet interfaces with an integrated switch, enabling straightforward line topology network wiring without additional switches or hubs. It automatically detects all connected I/O modules and creates a local process image containing both digital and analogue signals for real-time control. :contentReference

Designed for flexible PLC programming, the controller supports the IEC 61131-3 programming standard and integrates with the CODESYS development environment. Built-in networking protocols and an integrated web server allow engineers to configure devices, monitor system status and integrate the controller into industrial IT networks. :contentReference
