Schneider Electric 8020-SCP-312 PLC CPU Processor Module

Schneider Electric’s Square D SY/MAX Class 8020-SCP-312 CPU processor module (Model 300) serves as the central processing unit for legacy SY/MAX PLC systems, executing control logic and coordinating automation sequences within the 8020 family. It runs on 5 V DC input, draws 1.5 A, and is rated for operation up to 60°C, making it suitable for compact control panels in industrial environments. For modernization, Schneider Electric indicates the SCP-312 can be replaced by the higher‑performance 8020SCP401 SY/MAX controller, providing a clear upgrade path while preserving compatibility with the 8020 SY/MAX ecosystem.
