Modicon M241 Micro PLC
Schneider Electric Modicon M241 Nano PLCs are designed for advanced machine automation applications that require higher performance, expanded communication capabilities, and flexible I/O integration. These controllers combine hardwired I/O with automation bus and communication support, making them suitable for machines that incorporate drives, motion control, HMIs, and remote I/O. RSP Supply carries a wide selection of Modicon M241 PLC hardware and accessories to support scalable automation system designs.
The Modicon M241 features five embedded communication ports, including Ethernet, CANopen, USB for programming, and two serial interfaces. This connectivity enables seamless integration with field devices and simplifies access to machine data. The controllers are available with either 24 or 40 onboard I/O points and can be expanded using TM3 I/O modules to support applications requiring hundreds of I/O points. Embedded Ethernet access allows users to view machine status and diagnostics through web visualization pages stored directly on the PLC.
As part of Schneider Electric’s EcoStruxure™ Machine architecture, the Modicon M241 supports connected machine applications and digital services. The controller integrates with EcoStruxure Machine Advisor, enabling asset monitoring and predictive maintenance to improve machine availability and performance. With its compact design, robust communication options, and scalable I/O architecture, the M241 Nano PLC is well suited for packaging, material handling, and complex automation systems.
