LUCON® 4C-20A-V

High precision modular light controller with integraded voltage regulation

The latest development in the LUCON® controller series: our LUCON® 4C-20A-V. Four independent channels, up to 20 A per channel and integrated voltage regulation up to 60 V allow flexible use in almost any machine vision application. As you would expect from our LUCON® controller series, the newest member also has an Ethernet interface and thus an integrated web server. This means that everything can be conveniently configured via a graphical user interface.

Description

Easy and quick configuration

Whether you prefer a graphical user interface or command-based communication for configuration, with LUCON® 4C-20A-V you get both! For command-based communication, an Ethernet interface with UDP protocol is available. The graphical user interface requires only an Ethernet connection and an Internet browser - no other software is needed.

 

Flexibility and scalability through modular design

The modular design was already convincing with LUCON® and LUCON® 2. We have therefore included this option in the new LUCON® 4C-20A-V. This requires a separately available bus connector. This is inserted between the DIN rail and the lighting controller. It is then possible to configure all connected controllers with just one network connection.

 

Various operating modes for every application

Each channel can be operated completely independently. Whether it be current, voltage and mode. Every channel has its own configuration. For example, it is possible to drive a single LED with 20 mA / 3,3 V on channel 1, while a large illumination with 20.000 mA / 60 V is used on channel 2. The LUCON is designed so that the optimum operating point of the LED can always be used.

 

Backwards compatible with the predecessor

LUCON® 4C-20A-V is backwards compatible with LUCON® and LUCON® 2. Due to the different enclosure design, some rewiring is required. However, the commands for configuration and use remain the same. Only new commands have been added so that all features can be used.

The final specifications will be added gradually.
