Written by Galco | Aug 21, 2025
Eaton's ELC Series of modular PLCs focus on compact size, powerful features, and affordability. ELCs provide a solution to numerous application demands, including standalone control, distributed control networks control systems, or using centralized control with distributed inputs and outputs. Eaton's ELC Series of modular PLC's are available at Galco.com! The unit pictured here is item number Elc-PA10AADR. While the ELCs are perfectly suited for a diverse mix of small applications of less than 40 I/Os, they can also expand to hundreds of I/O points when needed. These controllers are modular, with a wide range of digital, analog, thermocouple, RTD, and even motion expansion modules. Despite the small footprint—which can be as little as one inch, these controllers can perform like much larger PLCs. With online editing, high-speed processing, multiple high speed inputs/outputs, and multiple independent master communication channels, these controllers exceed the baseline where only the largest PLCs could go only a few years ago. With high speed processing, basic instructions can be as fast as 0.24 microseconds. It features a High speed pulse capture and high speed pulse output of up to 200 kilohertz. The ELC modular programmable logic controller is available in a base, Clock/Calendar, High speed, analog, and advanced models.
