WAGO Compact Controller 100 – Maximum Performance in a Minimum Space

With the Compact Controller 100, WAGO now offers a smaller controller with integrated I/Os specifically designed for compact control applications. The new controller also allows WAGO to solidify its automation portfolio downstream of the proven PFC Series.

Designed as a DIN-rail mount device, the new controller can also be mounted on small distribution boards. The I/O unit is housed together with the controller in a compact enclosure and therefore requires no additional space.

The wiring level is pluggable – providing installation advantages and facilitating device replacement.

WAGO’s compact controller uses a real-time Linux operating system and supports standard fieldbus protocols. The Compact Controller 100 can be freely programmed according to IEC 61131.
