Product details
What this PLC is and what it delivers
The CP1E-N60DR-D is a 24 VDC-powered PLC from Omron's CP1E series, packing 36 digital inputs and 24 relay outputs into a single chassis. It's expandable up to 40 modules across 3 racks, so you can scale I/O without swapping the CPU. The relay outputs handle inductive loads like contactors and small motors directly — no external interposing relays needed for most panel applications. Communications are via RS-232C out of the box, with option cards available for fieldbus or serial expansion. The 8K word memory and CX-One software support give you enough headroom for medium-complexity machine control.
Lifecycle reality — discontinued, source via surplus
This part is discontinued per Omron's product lifecycle. There is no official direct replacement listed in the evidence. Sourcing is through surplus or broker channels — expect to work with a distributor who can locate NOS or used units. The CP1E series is still supported in CX-One, so programming and documentation remain available.
The CP1E-N60DT-A is the closest functional peer — same I/O count (36 in, 24 out), same expandability, same memory. The critical difference: the DT-A runs on 100~240 VAC and uses solid-state (transistor) outputs instead of relays. If your panel is wired for 24 VDC and you need relay outputs for switching AC loads, the DR-D is your part. If you have AC power available and need faster switching or longer output life, the DT-A is the better fit. They are not drop-in interchangeable — supply voltage and output type require a wiring change.
The unit weighs 1.9 lbs (861.8 g) — plan for adequate rail support if mounting in a vertical orientation. Battery backup is included for retaining program and real-time clock data during power loss. No display on the unit; all configuration is done via CX-One over the RS-232C port.
