Eaton easyE4 Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and I/O Systems

The Eaton easyE4 Control Relays offer a powerful and scalable solution for small to medium automation tasks. These compact yet versatile devices provide flexible control options for industrial and commercial applications. Available in AC, DC, and UC voltage variants, easyE4 relays feature built-in Ethernet connectivity, an intuitive display, and multiple programming languages (LD, FBD, ST, EDP) for seamless integration. Whether used for lighting control, HVAC, or machine automation, easyE4 relays enable smart automation with minimal components, making them an ideal alternative to traditional PLCs.

To enhance the connectivity of the easyE4 series, Eaton offers dedicated communication modules. These modules allow easyE4 control relays to seamlessly integrate into industrial networks, enabling machine-to-machine communication and remote monitoring. The EASY-COM-RTU-M1 module facilitates Modbus RTU Server connectivity, providing robust data exchange between devices. These communication solutions make it easy to integrate easyE4 relays into IoT architectures, ensuring real-time monitoring, efficient data transfer, and improved system performance.

For projects requiring additional inputs and outputs, Eaton’s easyE4 I/O Expansion Modules provide a flexible and scalable solution. Designed to integrate seamlessly with easyE4 base units, these modules allow users to expand their systems up to 188 I/O points. Available in AC, DC, and UC voltage types, the expansions offer both digital and analog input/output configurations. Whether adding temperature sensors, digital switches, or relay outputs, these modules ensure that easyE4 controllers can adapt to various automation requirements. With push-in and screw terminal options, installation and wiring adjustments are quick and simple.

To maximise the functionality of the easyE4 series, Eaton provides the easySoft 8 programming software. This user-friendly software allows for intuitive programming, simulation, and visualization of automation tasks. The EASYSOFT-SWLIC license grants access to the full range of software features, enabling engineers and technicians to create efficient control logic. With support for multiple programming languages, customizable visualisations, and real-time system monitoring, easySoft 8 makes programming easyE4 devices efficient and hassle-free.

For those looking to quickly implement automation solutions, Eaton’s easyE4 Starter Kits offer an all-in-one package. These kits include an easyE4 control relay, programming software, and essential accessories such as patch cables for seamless setup. Available in AC, DC, and UC variations, the kits provide everything needed to get started with easyE4-based control systems. Ideal for both beginners and professionals, these starter packages simplify deployment while offering the flexibility to expand as needed.
