Eaton XV-102-B6-35TQR-1AL-PLC Product Introduction
1. Product Description
The Eaton XV-102-B6-35TQR-1AL-PLC is an ultra-compact 5.7-inch industrial Human-Machine Interface (HMI) belonging to Eaton’s XV100 series, specifically engineered for micro-automation systems and standalone ultra-small machinery. Unlike standard entry-level HMIs, it features tailored integration capabilities with Eaton’s micro-PLCs (e.g., XC-CPU101/102) and third-party compact controllers, making it an ideal solution for scenarios such as miniaturized pumping stations, single-sensor monitoring devices, small-scale material handling units, and auxiliary workshop equipment.
This HMI focuses on “essential functionality with minimal footprint,” enabling real-time display of 5–8 key operational parameters (e.g., flow rate, temperature, motor running status), basic fault alarming, and one-touch execution of simple commands (e.g., start/stop, mode switching). Its ruggedized design—highlighted by an IP65-rated front panel, anti-vibration components, and oil-resistant touch coating—ensures reliable performance in space-constrained, dusty, or moderately humid industrial environments. By supporting Eaton’s proprietary PLC communication protocol, it eliminates the need for additional converters, reducing the overall cost and complexity of micro-automation systems for small businesses and workshop-level applications.

3. Product Specifications
3.1 Hardware Architecture
- Display & Touch Module: Utilizes a 5.7-inch TN (Twisted Nematic) panel with 320×240 QVGA resolution, supporting 256 grayscale display—sufficient for clear visualization of text labels, status indicators (e.g., “Running”/”Fault”), and simple bar graphs for parameter trends. The resistive touchscreen is coated with a 2H pencil-hardness oil-resistant layer, repelling industrial lubricants and enabling reliable operation with gloves (≤3mm thickness). It delivers a touch response time <60ms and positioning accuracy ±3mm, ensuring consistent interaction in greasy or dusty workshop environments.
- Processing Core: Equipped with a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 processor clocked at 60MHz, paired with 32MB DDR3 RAM. This configuration enables smooth rendering of 5–8 simultaneous dynamic variables (refresh interval ≤1.5s) and fast screen switching (<350ms) between 3–5 monitoring pages. The 64MB eMMC Flash provides secure, non-volatile storage for up to 5,000 historical data points (e.g., daily maximum temperature), 30 sets of simplified process parameters, and firmware backups—with built-in cyclic storage to avoid data overflow.
- Interface & Connectivity: The RS485 interface serves as the core communication channel, featuring 2500V AC galvanic isolation to suppress electromagnetic interference (EMI) from nearby small motors or solenoid valves. It natively supports Modbus RTU and Eaton’s proprietary PLC protocol (for XC-CPU101/102), enabling plug-and-play data exchange with sub-100ms latency—eliminating the need for manual protocol configuration. The USB 2.0 Host port facilitates firmware updates, CSV-format data export to small USB drives (≤8GB), and connection of basic peripherals (e.g., mini barcode scanners for parameter preset selection).
3.2 Functional Capabilities
- Basic Monitoring & Control: Compatible with Eaton’s EasyBuilder Micro configuration software, which offers 150+ simplified industrial widgets (e.g., toggle buttons, numeric displays, fault lamps) and supports BMP-format static image import (for equipment layout diagrams). It can monitor up to 8 dynamic variables (e.g., pump pressure, fan speed) and execute 10+ basic commands (e.g., “Start Pump,” “Reset Alarm”)—with built-in interlock logic to prevent erroneous operations (e.g., disabling “Start” if a safety door is open).
- Fault Diagnostics & Alarming: Integrates a 2-tier alarm system (Warning/Fault) with visual alerts—including flashing red icons and timestamped logs (storing up to 300 historical alarms). It automatically detects communication loss with the PLC, power voltage deviations (outside 24V±10%), and touchscreen unresponsiveness, displaying plain-text troubleshooting guides (e.g., “Check RS485 Wiring”) to assist on-site maintenance staff with minimal technical training.
- Data Management & Security: Supports manual or automatic data logging (configurable intervals: 5min–2h) for 3–5 key parameters (e.g., hourly average temperature). Logged data is stored in a compressed CSV format, which can be exported via USB for basic analysis (e.g., weekly operation reports). A simplified parameter lock function allows setting a 4-digit password to prevent unauthorized modification of critical values (e.g., safety temperature limits, motor speed thresholds).
3.3 Environmental & Mechanical Compliance
- Durability: Undergoes targeted environmental testing per IEC 60068-2 standards, including low-frequency vibration testing (10–300Hz, 0.2g acceleration) and light shock testing (5g acceleration, 11ms half-sine pulse)—adapted to the mechanical stress levels of small machinery. The front panel’s IP65 rating protects against low-pressure water splashes (≤1mm nozzle diameter, 5L/min flow rate) and dust ingress, making it suitable for outdoor auxiliary equipment (e.g., small outdoor water pumps) with basic weather protection.
- Power Protection: The power circuit includes three key safeguards: reverse polarity protection (up to 28V DC) to prevent damage from incorrect wiring (a common on-site error), overvoltage protection (triggering at ≥27V DC) to shield against transient power surges, and overcurrent protection (≥0.8A) to avoid component overheating when powering external small sensors (via auxiliary 5V output, max 100mA). These features enhance reliability in unstable low-voltage industrial power supplies.
4. Product Features
4.1 Ultra-Compact Footprint
With dimensions of 148mm×112mm×32mm and a weight of ~180g, this HMI is designed for equipment with extremely limited panel space—such as miniaturized control boxes for single pumps, small conveyor sections, or retrofitted legacy tools. Its slim depth (32mm) allows installation in shallow enclosures, eliminating the need for custom cabinet modifications.
4.2 PLC-Optimized Integration
Unlike generic entry-level HMIs, it supports Eaton’s proprietary PLC protocol, enabling direct, high-speed data exchange with XC series micro-PLCs (communication latency <100ms). This integration eliminates the need for external protocol converters, reducing system complexity and cost by ~15% compared to mixed-brand HMI-PLC setups.
4.3 Industrial-Grade Durability for Micro-Applications
Built with compact industrial-grade components—including wide-temperature-range capacitors (-40°C to +105°C) and shock-resistant terminal blocks—it achieves a mean time between failures (MTBF) of ≥45,000 hours. The 0°C–40°C operating temperature range and IP65 front protection ensure stable performance in small workshops, outdoor auxiliary equipment, or dusty material handling areas.
4.4 Simplified Operation & Low Maintenance
The EasyBuilder Micro software features a wizard-driven configuration interface, allowing technicians with basic electrical knowledge to complete HMI setup in <3 hours—no advanced programming skills required. The HMI also supports automatic self-diagnosis on startup (checking display, touch, and communication functions), reducing troubleshooting time for on-site staff.
