UV exposure controller PLC2000

Product Overview
The OmniCure PLC2000 programmable external controller complements OmniCure AC Series UV LED curing heads by providing centralized management, monitoring and control. It enables dynamic output intensity adjustment, timed exposures and pulsed operation while reporting system status and errors for industrial integration.

Applications
The compact, portable PLC2000 supports local or remote operation and is suitable for production lines, quality control stations, laboratories and R&D environments where precise control of UV LED curing is required.

Features

• Digital intensity control in 1% increments and exposure timer for repeatable curing cycles
• Pulsed operation with adjustable frequency or duty cycle for process flexibility
• LCD display showing temperature, LED hours and system information for quick diagnostics
• Local control (LED On/Off, intensity, timer, pulse mode) and remote programmability via PLC commands
• Connectivity via RS-485 or RS-232 supporting point-to-point or daisy-chain topologies
• PLC fault indicators and alarm reporting (temperature, drive current continuity)
• Powered from the connected UV LED head — no separate power supply required
• Plug-and-play auto detection and calibration with OmniCure AC Series UV LED curing systems
