Controllers and software

Back to System overview

PROFINET technology forms the communication basis between Phoenix Contact controllers and the peripheral components in your machine or system.

The Phoenix Contact controller range contains many products which support PROFINET technology, from small-scale and compact controllers, to industrial PCs, right through to high-performance and safety controllers.

The PC Worx software is designed for the configuration and diagnosis of your PROFINET network and for programming according to IEC 61131-3.

Modular controllers

We offer you modular controllers for your PROFINET system in different performance classes. The design of the Inline and Axioline controllers enables the highly modular expansion of the I/O level.
