MODULAR,
EASY TO SERVICE
Low
Maintenance
Unlike an electromechanical limit switch that requires periodic
maintenance and often at places that are hard to reach, the M1020-PLS
requires no maintenance and has no mechanical cams/contacts to
wear out. In addition, the plug-in output relays are easily field
replaceable.
Detachable
operator interface for Program Security and Cost Savings
Once the setpoints are programmed using the front-panel-programming
interface, you can detach it from the main unit, making the
program inaccessible to any unauthorized personnel. While this
feature makes the M1020-PLS tamper-proof, it also saves you money
by using the same programmer to program various other AVG
Automation PLSs in your plant.

Program
Enable Input
The M1020-PLS allows another level of security against
unauthorized programming changes. In addition to the detachable
programmer, you need a contact closure at the back of the M1020 to
enable programming.
Rugged,
Reliable for Hostile Environments
The M1020-PLS combines the ruggedness of a brushless resolver and
the reliability of an advanced solid-state control. The rugged,
heavy-duty, NEMA 13 (IP54)-rated resolver can be mounted on a
machine shaft in hostile environments, such as mechanical shock,
vibration, extreme humidity and temperature changes, oil mist,
coolant sprays, solvents, etc., and the programmable control unit,
M1020-PLS, can be mounted up to 2,500 ft. away in a control panel
The splash-proof, oil-tight front plate permits the unit to be
installed directly on the machine itself, if so required. The
ratiometric converter
used in the M1020-PLS assures high noise immunity and
short-circuit-proof resolver wiring.
Fully
Absolute Position
Unlike some other attempts to replace cam switches with
incremental encoders, and/or counter modules in a PLC, the M1020-PLS
maintains one crucial feature of cam switches ... it is totally
absolute.
The
M1020-PLS will give you reliable limit settings, irrespective of
power outages, machine movement during a power outage, as well as
during severe electrical noise!
A
PLS AT THE COST OF CAM/LIMIT
SWITCHES ($500)*
An
innovative design and AVG Automation's fully automated 100,000
sq.ft. manufacturing facility with the latest in stateof-the-art
surface-mount equipment, have now made it possible to provide you
with a programmable electronic cam/limit switch at the cost of
electromechanical cam/limit switches. At less than $500.00 for
eight cam outputs, the M1020-PLS offers all the advantages of a
solid-state programmable device with the same degree of product
reliability as any other AVG Autotech PLS, and yet at no penalty
cost.
