Allen Bradley 5069-L330ER CompactLogix 3MB Enet Controller

The Allen Bradley 5069-L330ER is a CompactLogix 5380 Ethernet controller that combines 3 MB of user memory with integrated EtherNet/IP connectivity for machine and process control applications. The controller supports distributed network architectures through dual 1 Gbps Ethernet ports and provides scalability for local and networked I/O while maintaining compatibility with the Studio 5000 Logix Designer environment.

Controller Architecture

The 5069-L330ER provides 3 MB of user memory for application logic, tag databases, and controller configuration. It belongs to the CompactLogix 5380 platform and is intended for control applications requiring high-speed Ethernet communications and integration with EtherNet/IP devices.

This model is a standard controller and does not include integrated motion control or safety-controller functionality. Applications requiring these capabilities should use appropriately designated motion or safety variants.

Communication Interfaces

The controller includes two integrated 1 Gbps EtherNet/IP ports for industrial network connectivity and one USB port for local configuration and maintenance access.

The EtherNet/IP architecture supports up to 60 network nodes, allowing the controller to communicate with distributed I/O, HMIs, drives, and other EtherNet/IP-compatible devices within the supported system limits.

I/O Capacity and Expansion

The 5069-L330ER supports up to 31 local 5069 I/O modules within the local system configuration. This capacity provides flexibility for combining digital, analog, specialty, and communication modules in CompactLogix control systems.

Selection of local and distributed I/O should be verified according to the overall project architecture, controller loading, and network design requirements.

Power and Configuration Requirements

The controller operates from a module power range of 18 VDC to 32 VDC supplied through the CompactLogix platform infrastructure.

Programming and configuration require Studio 5000 Logix Designer software version 29.00.00 or later. Project compatibility should be verified when replacing existing controllers or migrating applications from earlier Logix platforms.

Storage and Accessory Considerations

The controller supports only Rockwell Automation 1784-SDHC8 and 1784-SDHC32 Secure Digital memory cards for application storage and recovery functions.

Removable Terminal Blocks (RTBs) are not supplied with the controller and must be ordered separately where required. Common options include the 5069-RTB64-SCREW and 5069-RTB64-SPRING terminal block assemblies.

Technical Specifications

Selection Considerations

The 5069-L330ER is intended for applications that require standard CompactLogix control functions with Ethernet networking capability but do not require integrated motion or safety control. When selecting a replacement unit, verify memory capacity, local I/O requirements, firmware compatibility, and Studio 5000 software revision compatibility.

Because RTBs are not included, appropriate terminal block assemblies should be specified separately during system planning and procurement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the 5069-L330ER include integrated motion control?

A: No. The 5069-L330ER is a standard CompactLogix controller and does not provide integrated motion control functionality.

Q: How many EtherNet/IP devices can the controller support?

A: The controller supports up to 60 EtherNet/IP nodes within the specified system architecture and configuration limits.

Q: Are SD memory cards included with the controller?

A: No. Supported SD cards must be ordered separately. This model supports Rockwell Automation 1784-SDHC8 and 1784-SDHC32 memory cards.
