LPU100H
Product Name
LPU100HHitachi High-Performance Industrial Control Card
Model Interpretation:
- “LPU”: Denotes “Logic Processing Unit,” aligning with Hitachi’s naming convention for industrial control modules focused on real-time logic execution.
- “100H”: Series identifier signifying the 100-series high-tier variant—distinguished by enhanced processing speed, expanded I/O capacity, and rugged environmental tolerance compared to entry-level LPU models.
- The designation confirms its positioning as a mid-range control core for complex automation tasks, bridging basic I/O control and advanced DCS integration.
2. Product Description
The LPU100H is an industrial-grade control card engineered by Hitachi for precision real-time control, data processing, and system integration in manufacturing and process automation—ideal for applications like assembly lines, material handling, and equipment monitoring. As a versatile processing core, its core functions include:
- Executing control logic (e.g., sequential control, interlock protection) via a high-performance microcontroller (up to 10 MHz), ensuring sub-millisecond response times for time-critical tasks.
- Managing 24 digital inputs (for sensor signals) and 16 digital outputs (for actuators/relays), enabling direct control of machinery without external I/O expansion modules.
- Facilitating seamless connectivity with PLCs, HMIs, and edge devices through multi-protocol support (Modbus TCP, CANopen, Ethernet), supporting both legacy RS-485 and modern IP-based communication.
- Operating reliably in harsh industrial environments via a rugged design that withstand
