CONTROLEDGE PLC

BETTER CONTROL
GIVES YOU AN EDGE
NEW GENERATION
CONTROLLER
Honeywell’s PLC is part of the ControlEdge™ family, a next-generation
family of controllers providing unprecedented connectivity through
all levels of process and business operations. The result is optimized
operations and maintenance efficiencies that liberate personnel from
manual processes. ControlEdge PLC is one of our first controllers
supporting Honeywell’s IIoT-ready initiative.

ControlEdge PLC dramatically reduces HOW IS CONTROLEDGE PLC command function blocks in the PLC
