Allen Bradley 1766 Series PLC I/O Module for Use with MicroLogix 1400 Series, Digital, Relay, 24 V dc

Send commands to your machinery with this MicroLogix 1400 series programmable logic controller (PLC) from Rockwell Automation's Allen Bradley range. It's a basic computer designed to increase workplace efficiency in industrial automation setups, such as manufacturing lines. It gives straightforward instructions to machinery and monitors processes, notifying you quickly of faults that occur. The device has 20 digital inputs and 12 outputs, so you can build a comprehensive, multifaceted setup. 12 of the digital inputs and 3 of the digital outputs operate for high-speed transmissions, giving you greater flexibility of use.

• Mounts to a DIN rail for secure installation and easy access• Broad operating range of -20°C to +60°C for use in harsh environments• Embedded real-time clock for setting program timers

• UL (Underwriters' Laboratories)• ACMA (Australian Communications and Media Authority)• CE (Conformité Européenne)• EN (European Norm)• IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission)

- Programmable Logic Controller
PLC’s are complex computers which automate control processes by using programs to communicate electronic signals to machines and devices. In simplified terms, they are usually comprised of three components: A CPU (Central Processing Unit), which is the brain or processor of the system, Inputs, and Outputs. An input module detects signals from things like switches, sensors, and buttons. This is processed by the CPU, which leads to an output relaying the CPU’s instructions to a machine or device. PLC system functions can be expanded by adding extra I/O modules. These devices are widely used in modern industrial automation for controlling machinery, in industries such as packaging, food and beverage production, pharmaceutical, and printing.

Rockwell Automation is a global leader in industrial automation and digital transformation, and brings smart manufacturing to life. With a long legacy of creating Allen-Bradley® integrated control and information solutions, we help make you as productive as possible. Our portfolio of sensing, safety and motor control products can support your move towards smart machine applications. Allen-Bradley® IO-Link sensors are data-enabled and communicate with all field buses, providing diagnostic and health information about the device before a machine stops, and enabling quick production changeovers through fast parameter downloads from PLCs into the device. This reduces machine downtime and increases manufacturing OEE. For safety components, products with built-in diagnostics simplify the set-up of the smart device, and reduce maintenance, leading to a more efficient, machine data-driven approach.
