Information About 1771-QB
The Allen-Bradley 1771-QB is a PLC-5 specialty I/O module engineered for high-performance closed-loop hydraulic motion control. It supports two independent servo axes with a rapid 2 ms update rate, allowing precise real-time adjustments of position, velocity, and acceleration. Designed for direct interface with magnetostrictive displacement transducers and servo valves, the module provides PID and feed-forward control while offering velocity smoothing to extend mechanical life. All external connections are electrically isolated, supporting robust operation in electrically noisy environments. Built-in diagnostics, simulation modes, and flexible external power options further enhance system reliability, making the 1771-QB a proven solution for hydraulic servo applications requiring accuracy and durability.
Key Features:
- Dual-axis closed-loop control: independent, high-speed hydraulic servo control with a 2 ms update rate for precise real-time adjustments in demanding motion systems.
- Advanced PID + feed-forward control: supports proportional, integral, derivative, and feed-forward algorithms for highly accurate and responsive control behavior.
- Direct connection to linear transducers: interfaces directly with Temposonics II, Balluff, or Norstat magnetostrictive transducers with lengths up to 180 inches and resolution exceeding ±0.002 inches.
- Servo valve and drive output support: includes 12-bit resolution analog outputs for direct control of servo valves or motor controllers.
- Fully isolated external connections: 1500 V RMS isolation ensures noise immunity and safe operation across hydraulic, transducer, and control circuits.
- On-the-fly motion modification: allows position, velocity, and acceleration changes during operation, enabling adaptive and dynamic motion control.
- Built-in diagnostics and simulation: supports troubleshooting and off-site testing without connecting live hydraulic equipment.
- Flexible external power requirements: individual power inputs for transducer, analog, and discrete sections allow isolated or shared supplies depending on noise-immunity needs.
- High environmental resilience: operates from 0–60°C with wide humidity tolerance and supports industrial-grade wiring via 1771-WN terminal arm.
The 1771-QB delivers the reliability and precision required for closed-loop hydraulic servo positioning across a wide range of industrial automation environments.
