WAGO’s New PFC300 Controller

April 23, 2025

WAGO’s PFC300 Controller

WAGO’s new configurable, high-performance PFC300 controller is safe, reliable, and designed for complex automation applications.

The PFC300 Controller is a compact PLC for the modular WAGO I/O System. Besides network and fieldbus interfaces, the controller supports all digital, analog and specialty modules found within the 750/753 Series.

Two ETHERNET interfaces and an integrated switch enable line topology wiring.

An integrated Webserver provides user configuration options, while displaying PFC300 status information.

Besides the processing industry and building automation, typical applications for the PFC300 include standard machinery and equipment control (e.g., packaging, bottling and manufacturing systems, as well as textile, metal and wood processing machines).

Advantages:

  • Programmable per IEC 61131-3
  • Programmable via CODESYS V3.5
  • Direct connection of WAGO I/O Modules
  • 2 x ETHERNET (configurable), RS-485
  • Linux operating system with RT‐Preempt patch
  • Configuration via CODESYS or Web-Based Management user interface
  • Maintenance-free
