The Allen-Bradley SLC 500: 1747/1746 series is a mid-range Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) system from Rockwell Automation. Here's a breakdown to help understand it better:
SLC 500 System: The SLC 500 is a popular PLC platform known for its affordability, user-friendliness, and reliability. It's well-suited for various industrial automation applications that don't require extremely high processing power or complex control logic.
1746/1747 Breakdown:
-
1746 Chassis: This serves as the physical housing for the SLC 500 system, containing core components like the power supply (often 1746-P1 or -P2) and mounting slots for other modules.
-
1747 Modules: These are various I/O modules that snap into the chassis, providing connection points for sensors, actuators, and other devices in your system. Common modules include digital input/output (DIO), analog input/output (AIO), and communication modules.
Applications: The SLC 500 with 1746/1747 modules finds use in diverse industrial settings such as:
-
Machine control: Starting, stopping, and monitoring machines.
-
Material handling: Conveyor systems, pick-and-place robots.
-
Building automation: HVAC control, lighting control.
-
Data acquisition: Collecting and logging data from sensors.
