PWM Prop valve driver for ControlLogix

I have an application with several proportional valves that require a PWM signal and up to 2.3A. I am new to the PLC field and was wondering if there was a module I could purchase for the PLC or if I need a separate driver?

Typically you would use a driver card matched to the valve from the valve manufacturer.

Thanks, I was wondering if there were other options, but I think I will take your advice and use the valve manufacturer's driver card.

Depending on just what you are trying to do, there are low cost plc's out there that have PWM build right in. Triangle Research is one, I have used them for Prop valve drivers in the past. But most amp cards make it simple with just a analogue input required.
