Why Choose the Unitronics UIS-WCB2 Wide Mixed I/O Expansion Module?
The Unitronics UIS-WCB2 is a highly versatile Uni-I/O Wide mixed input/output expansion module designed for the Unitronics UniStream PLC platform. Engineered for advanced industrial automation, machine control and process applications, the module combines digital, analogue and temperature I/O with high-speed functionality in a single compact expansion device.
As part of the powerful Uni-I/O Wide Series, the UIS-WCB2 provides significantly greater I/O density than standard Uni-I/O modules, allowing automation engineers to increase system capability while reducing control panel space requirements. The module integrates seamlessly with UniStream Built-in, Modular and Virtual PLC systems and can be mounted directly onto a UniStream HMI or installed remotely using a Local Expansion Kit.
Featuring 10 digital inputs, 2 analogue inputs, 2 temperature inputs, 10 transistor outputs and 2 analogue outputs, the UIS-WCB2 delivers exceptional flexibility for monitoring, control and process automation applications. Integrated high-speed counter inputs and PWM outputs further enhance its suitability for demanding industrial systems.
