Product Description P/N: 1762-RTC
Description
The Allen-Bradley 1762-RTC is a Real-Time Clock (RTC) module designed for MicroLogix 1200 controllers. It provides accurate date and time values for time-dependent automation processes, enabling advanced scheduling and monitoring. This compact module installs directly into the controller’s memory module slot and supports remove/insert under power operation.
Technical Specification
Condition | New / Never Used Surplus |
Brand | Allen-Bradley |
Series | MicroLogix 1200 |
Part Number | 1762-RTC |
Manufacturer | Rockwell Automation |
Product Type | Real-Time Clock |
Information About 1762-RTC
The 1762-RTC belongs to the MicroLogix 1200 family as an optional accessory module that enhances controllers with real-time clock functionality. It provides parameters such as year, month, day, day of week, hour, minute, and seconds for use in control logic. Applications include HVAC scheduling, machine runtime management, and pump distribution in water and wastewater systems. The module creates an RTC file with predefined addresses for easy integration into user programs, and valid values can be updated directly from the controller or programming software. Accuracy varies with temperature, ranging from +34/–70 seconds per month at 0 °C to –133/–237 seconds per month at 55 °C. The built-in lithium battery powers the clock for up to 5 years under normal operating conditions (0…40 °C). Battery status can be monitored via system flags, and a low-battery warning is provided approximately 14 days before failure. Designed for storage temperatures of –40…60 °C, the module must be installed within six months of manufacture to protect battery life.
Key Features:
- Design: Real-Time Clock module for MicroLogix 1200 PLCs.
- Clock Functions: Provides year, month, day, day of week, hour, minute, and seconds.
- Integration: Installs directly in the controller memory slot; creates an RTC file for programming use.
- Accuracy: Varies by temperature, e.g., ±34/–70 seconds/month at 0 °C, up to –133/–237 seconds/month at 55 °C.
- Battery: Internal lithium battery with up to 5 years life at 0…40 °C operation.
- Monitoring: Low-battery warning available through system status file.
- Operation: Supports remove/insert under power without damage to the controller.
- Environmental Ratings: Operating range 0…40 °C; storage range –40…60 °C.
- Applications: Ideal for time-dependent scheduling in HVAC, manufacturing, and water/wastewater control systems.
- Status: Discontinued by manufacturer (August 2021).
The 1762-RTC provides reliable timekeeping and scheduling capability, enhancing the flexibility and functionality of MicroLogix 1200 automation systems.
