Information About 1756-A4
The 1756-A4 is part of the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix chassis family, developed to support modular system expansion with high reliability and performance. It offers four slots for installing ControlLogix processors, I/O, communication, specialty, and partner modules, with the backplane delivering up to 10 A at 5 VDC and 2.8 A at 24 VDC. The chassis supports Removal and Insertion Under Power (RIUP), allowing maintenance without shutting down the system, and uses electronic keying to prevent installation errors. Designed for horizontal panel mounting in an open enclosure, it combines compact size with efficient power distribution and high-speed communication, making it suitable for demanding automation environments.
Key Features:
- Slot Capacity: Four (4) slots to accommodate ControlLogix processors, I/O modules, and communication adapters.
- Backplane Power: Provides 10 A at 5 VDC and 2.8 A at 24 VDC to distribute power effectively to all installed modules.
- Power Dissipation: Operates with a maximum dissipation of 4 W, ensuring stable and efficient system performance.
- Dimensions: Measures 20 x 20 x 8 in (50.8 x 50.8 x 20.3 cm) with a weight of 1.7 lbs (0.75 kg), allowing compact installation.
- Communication: Backplane bus provides high-speed data transfer between modules for synchronized operations.
- Mounting: Supports horizontal panel mounting with an open enclosure for flexible integration in control cabinets.
- Safety and Reliability: Equipped with electronic keying to prevent configuration errors and protect system integrity.
- Maintenance: RIUP capability allows modules to be replaced or inserted while the chassis remains powered, reducing downtime.
The 1756-A4 delivers the reliability and precision required for ControlLogix automation systems in demanding industrial environments.
