Modular, low-cost micro PLC
with outstanding communication features

The EH-150 Series is considered a true power pack. At the heart of this PLC is a 32 bit microprocessor, which enables the user to individually adapt the CPU and various I/O modules to a specific application. Various extensions allow the system to be expanded to 1024 I/Os. As part of a network, the extension potential is virtually limitless. Outstanding CPU performance features include: integrated PID-commands, floating point arithmetic, two serial interfaces as standard, one of which can be used as software-modem-interface. Flexibility and modularity of the EH-150 Series are enhanced by extensive network abilities, especially with regards open fieldbus systems. No matter whether food packaging machines need to be automated or high-speed controls of a production line: The Hitachi EH-150 Series PLC is "open" for any type of application.

APOLOGY: (Yes, we know this is more than just a PLC, but this thing is so cool we just had to show it here.)

Large H Series

Large PLC for Plant Engineering

The H Series is designed for plant engineering, featuring a high-performance CPU that is considered the ultimate of its class. Remarkable processing speeds of up to 0.05 ms/command allow the automation of all those tasks which a smaller PLC cannot handle. Also, functionality, flexibility and user-friendliness put the H-Series in a class of its own. Numerous special modules are available. The hardware can be expanded to 4096 I/Os (virtually limitless expansion via network), making this series the preferred system for automating medium to highly complex processes.

H Series Processors & Memory

S10V

These are the High-End Systems is used in Refineries, Steel Mills, and Factories around the globe.

The S10V executes flowchart language and C language simultaneously.
The S10V is the latest evolution of the legendary S10 Systems with many exciting new features.

EH RIO

New Remote I/O modules for precise distribution of I/O and easy installation.

EH-RIO allow you to distribute the exact number of needed I/O in your application - right where they have to be, close to the sensors and actuators. This series is designed for users who place a high priority on cost efficiency. A highly granular, super-slim design; comfortable "no tools" handling, make for user-friendly maintenance. Just what you need to make your application a success!

EC Series

Small, compact, powerful!

These were central aspects in the development of the Hitachi EC Series, a micro PLC feature "all-in-one housing technology". Applying the latest development and manufacturing technologies, Hitachi minimized the area needed for installing 20/28/40/60 I/Os to only 170 X 80 mm. In addition, the same series also offers modules for analog input. The makes the EC Series one of the most compact PLCs in the world! It excels wherever maximum automation has to be achieved with minimum means: in power control and supply systems, in food and packaging industries, and for HVAC systems.

EMII Series

A 20 Year Phenenomen!

The EM-II series comes fully equipped with high processing speed of 1.5�s per basic instruction and large program capacity of 3,9976 words, giving it the ability to handle the next generation of Factory Automation.

An EIA232C (RS232C) communications port is provided with the CPM-E3 type CPU for direct connection with a personal computer, and a real time clock is incorporated as well.

Various efficient functions are incorporated to permit controlling sophisticated numerical operations, and mounting analog I/O modules applicable to temperature or flow control, etc.

The EM-II Series is an up-to-date controller most applicable to small to medium scale factory automation.

RELIANCE ELECTRIC : Shark X, Shark XL, Shark XLII

Reliance Electric was purchased by Rockwell Automation in 1994. Reliance became part of the Rockwell family, taking direction from Allen-Bradley, which Rockwell had acquired in 1985. Reliance manufactured the AutoMax® and AutoMate® systems. However, the Shark X, Shark XL, and SharkXLII were actually Hitachi E-Series, EM-Series, and EMII series (respectively).

The Shark X (Hitachi-E) was a "fixed I/O" (sometimes referred to as a "brick") PLC. The Hitachi E was replaced by the "EB", and then by the "EC" (see the "EC" on this page). The program running in your Shark X will work in the Hitachi EC. Contact our Tech Support for assistance if you need to upgrade.

Many of the Shark XL and XLII series (Hitachi EM and EMII) components are still made today. You can contact our Tech Support for help in crossing this over, or just visit our Cross-Reference table!

High-speed, modular PLC, suited for high-end machine tool industry.

The H-200/250/252 Series is the result of many years of industrial application. A CPU processing speed of up to 0.2 ms/command, extensive program capacity and a large set of application commands make the H-200/250/252 Series especially suited for high-end machine tool manufacturing. Various communication options for virtually all network levels round off the impressive performance range. By adding individual modules, designed for specific applications, up to 928 I/Os are available (via network, extensions are virtually limitless).

FURNAS ELECTRIC : 96H, 96J, 96K, and 96M Series PLCs

Up until Furnas Electric was purchased by Siemens Automation, their PLCs were "brand labeled". If your Furnas PLC Model Number started with 96H, 96J, or 96K, then they were actually Mitsubishi PLCs. If your Furnas PLC Model started with 96M, then it was actually a Hitachi PLC.

Replacements are available for some of these, but not all. In most cases you will have to upgrade to a more current model, which means you will need to somehow retrieve the program from the old unit. We may be able to help you with that, too, whether the old unit was a Mitsubishi or Hitachi. Contact our Technical Support Specialists for assistance (including quotations).
