Alternative to IDX MX8

[APW]

MX8s are on backorder everywhere. Anyone know an alternative?

You could use a Programmable Logic Relay....and program it to do what you need.

I used a Moeller Easy Relay.

I have 3 self service bays.

When any of the bays selects Foam Brush, an air solenoid opens on my foam brush pump.

Likewise for Tire Cleaner, and PreSoak soap.

I used 9 inputs to control 3 pumps.

Programming was relatively easy. I didn't even need the cable/computer to do it. I just used the LCD screen and pushbuttons on the PLC.

I like Rudy's idea but for a really cheap and simple alternative is just a bank of relays. Of course they would not have a delay like the MX8 has.

I got the MX8 yesterday that had been on backorder for three months.
