WAGO PFC200 G2 with Native BACnet/IP (750-8212/000-100)
The WAGO 750-8212/000-100 is the BACnet/IP variant of the PFC200 2nd Generation Controller — a compact PLC purpose-configured for building automation, HVAC plant, energy management, and process applications where BACnet/IP is the primary fieldbus. It implements the full B-BC (BACnet Building Controller) device profile per ISO 16484-5, BACnet revision 14, with native protocol support that does not require an additional license — the BACnet stack and the WAGO BACnet Configurator tool ship with the controller.
Underneath the BACnet stack, the 750-8212/000-100 is a full-featured PFC200 G2 PLC: an ARM Cortex-A8 1 GHz CPU with 512 MB RAM and 4 GB internal flash, real-time Linux operating system (PREEMPT_RT patch), and IEC 61131-3 programming in CODESYS V3.5 (firmware release 23 and higher) or legacy e!COCKPIT (up to firmware release 22). It runs Modbus TCP/UDP/RTU master and slave, EtherNet/IP™ adapter and scanner, EtherCAT® master, OPC UA server/client, OPC UA Pub/Sub, MQTT, and supports IEC 60870, IEC 61850, and DNP3 telecontrol via license — all alongside BACnet on the same controller.
The 750-8212/000-100 carries an unusually broad set of approvals for a building controller: UL Hazardous Locations (E198726), ATEX, IECEx, UKEx, CCCEx, and INMETRO for Zone 2 hazardous gas atmospheres, plus BSH, DNV, and PRS for marine and shipboard installations — making it a strong fit not just for commercial HVAC, but for chemical plant utilities, refinery building services, water/wastewater plant rooms, and shipboard HVAC where BACnet integration is required.
FOR BAS / HVAC ENGINEERS
A Real BACnet Controller, Not a Gateway
Most "BACnet-capable" PLCs are gateway-style retrofits. The 750-8212/000-100 implements the full B-BC profile natively, presenting BACnet objects directly from the controller program. Use the included WAGO BACnet Configurator to map AI/AO/BI/BO/AV/BV objects, schedules, calendars, trend logs, and notification classes — then commission directly with any BACnet/IP supervisory tool. A dedicated BT (BACnet) status LED gives you protocol-level diagnostics at a glance.
FOR PROCESS & MARINE ENGINEERS
Building Control Where Other PLCs Can’t Go
Need BACnet-aware HVAC, lighting, or utility control inside a Class I Division 2 / Zone 2 area, or on a classed vessel? Most building controllers can’t be specified there. The 750-8212/000-100 carries UL HazLoc, ATEX, IECEx, UKEx, CCCEx, INMETRO Zone 2 approvals plus BSH, DNV, and PRS marine certifications — while still running the same BACnet, Modbus, and OPC UA stacks as a standard plant controller.
When to Specify 750-8212/000-100 vs. Standard 750-8212
The standard WAGO 750-8212 can run BACnet/IP via a separately licensed runtime, but the 750-8212/000-100 ships with BACnet/IP active out of the box, includes the dedicated B-BC firmware build, and adds the hazardous-area and marine approvals that the base SKU does not carry. If your specification calls out BACnet/IP — or your installation is in a Zone 2 hazardous area or on a classed vessel — this is the right SKU.
| Specification | Standard 750-8212 | 750-8212/000-100 (BACnet/IP) |
|---|---|---|

The 750-8212/000-100 doesn’t make BACnet your only option — it adds BACnet on top of the full PFC200 G2 protocol stack. This is what makes it useful as a unified building/process controller: the same device that talks BACnet to your HVAC and lighting can also speak Modbus to your water meters, EtherNet/IP to your packaged chillers, and OPC UA to the plant historian.

| Accessory | WAGO Item No. | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| SD Memory Card (2 GB SLC NAND) | 758-879/000-001 | −40 to +90 °C industrial-grade card; required for guaranteed properties |

Note: Use only WAGO-recommended SD cards. External overcurrent protection (max. 2 A slow-blow on system supply, max. 10 A on field supply) is required per the WAGO 750/753 system manual. Hazardous-area installations must follow the conditions of the relevant ATEX, IECEx, UKEx, CCCEx, INMETRO or UL HazLoc certificate; consult the certificate text and local authority having jurisdiction.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the WAGO 750-8212/000-100?
The WAGO 750-8212/000-100 is the BACnet/IP variant of the PFC200 2nd Generation Controller. It is a compact PLC that runs native BACnet/IP per the B-BC (BACnet Building Controller) device profile, BACnet revision 14, alongside Modbus, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, OPC UA, and MQTT. The controller is built on an ARM Cortex-A8 1 GHz CPU with 512 MB RAM and 4 GB flash, runs real-time Linux with the PREEMPT_RT patch, and is programmed in CODESYS V3.5 (firmware release 23 and later) or e!COCKPIT (up to firmware release 22).
How is the 750-8212/000-100 different from the standard 750-8212?
The standard 750-8212 supports BACnet/IP via a separately licensed runtime, while the 750-8212/000-100 ships with the native B-BC BACnet stack and the WAGO BACnet Configurator out of the box. The /000-100 also adds a dedicated BT (BACnet) status LED for protocol-level diagnostics, plus a broader approvals package — UL Hazardous Locations (E198726), ATEX, IECEx, UKEx, CCCEx, INMETRO Zone 2, plus marine BSH, DNV, and PRS — that the standard 750-8212 does not carry.
What BACnet device profile does the controller support?
The 750-8212/000-100 implements the B-BC (BACnet Building Controller) profile per ISO 16484-5, BACnet revision 14. B-BC is the highest-functionality general-purpose BACnet controller profile and supports analog and binary input/output/value objects, multi-state objects, schedules, calendars, notification classes, event enrollment, and trend logs. Full BACnet PICS documentation is available from WAGO for spec compliance review.
Is the WAGO BACnet Configurator included?
Yes. The WAGO BACnet Configurator is the engineering tool used to define and map BACnet objects, schedules, calendars, trend logs, and notification classes from the controller program out to the BAS network. It is provided by WAGO at no additional cost for the 750-8212/000-100. The WAGO Solution Builder, with HVAC BACnet macro libraries, is also available to accelerate typical AHU and chiller programming.
Can I install this controller in a Class I, Division 2 / Zone 2 hazardous area?
Yes. The 750-8212/000-100 carries UL HazLoc certification (UL 121201 / E198726) for North American Class I Division 2 installations, plus ATEX (II 3 G Ex ec IIC T4 Gc), IECEx, UKEx, CCCEx, and INMETRO certifications for Zone 2 hazardous gas atmospheres internationally. Always consult the certificate text and your local authority having jurisdiction regarding enclosure selection, wiring methods, and any conditions of the certificate.
Is this controller approved for marine and shipboard installations?
Yes. The 750-8212/000-100 holds three classification society approvals: BSH (Bundesamt fuer Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie), DNV (TAA0000194 per DNV-CG-0339, August 2021), and PRS (Polski Rejestr Statków). These approvals support shipboard accommodation HVAC, engine-room ventilation, ballast/bilge ancillary control, and offshore platform building services where BACnet integration is required.
Do I have to use BACnet, or can I use other protocols too?
Both. The /000-100 firmware adds BACnet/IP on top of the full PFC200 G2 protocol stack. The same controller can run BACnet to the BMS supervisory layer, Modbus TCP/RTU to meters and submeter panels, EtherNet/IP to packaged HVAC equipment, OPC UA to the plant historian or sustainability platform, and MQTT to a cloud broker — all simultaneously. This is the central reason to specify it as a unified building/plant controller rather than a single-protocol device.
Should I program in CODESYS V3.5 or e!COCKPIT?
For new projects, use CODESYS V3.5 with firmware release 23 or higher — this is the active development path for the PFC200 G2 family. e!COCKPIT (also based on CODESYS V3) is supported up to firmware release 22 and remains a valid environment for legacy projects, but new functionality is shipped on the CODESYS V3.5 path. WAGO publishes a Migration Guide for moving e!COCKPIT projects forward to CODESYS V3.5.
How many WAGO I/O modules can I connect?
Up to 250 modules per node total. Without a bus extension, you can connect up to 64 modules. The full WAGO 750/753 Series I/O catalog is supported — digital, analog, specialty, and serial communication modules — making the 750-8212/000-100 a drop-in upgrade path for existing 750/753 designs that need to add native BACnet capability.
