Allen-Bradley ControlLogix L73 and L75 PACs

Click2Contact

Rockwell Automation has made two additions to its Allen-Bradley ControlLogix family of controllers, both leveraging the single design environment and networking protocol within the company’s Integrated Architecture system. The ControlLogix L73 and L75 programmable automation controllers (PACs) provide advanced memory, speed and processing capabilities for a wide range of control demands, from high-performance logic and motion to information-intensive process applications.

For complex, high-performance motion applications, the ControlLogix L73 and L75 PACs link seamlessly with motion drives through EtherNet/IP and SERCOS network interfaces. The controllers are capable of supporting up to 100 axes, simplifying synchronisation of complex motion applications.

The 1 GB secure digital card that ships with each controller provides improved data integrity, and faster reads and writes than previous CompactFlash technology. The ControlLogix L73 and L75 PACs offer 16 and 32 MB of memory.

Energy storage modules that ship with each controller are designed to eliminate the need for lithium batteries, helping users avoid the maintenance and environmental issues associated with the transportation and disposal of batteries. A USB port provides faster uploads and downloads, firmware upgrades and online edits. The controllers feature an onboard display to provide enhanced controller diagnostics and run-time information.
