The Allen-Bradley 1756-L83EK processor module is a ControlLogix 5580 processor module with 10 MB of user memory. The letter "K" at the end of the processor module ordering code indicates that it is a special edition processor whose internal components and panels are coated with special films that enable it to operate in environments with harsh vapors, large, abrasive mechanical particles, and consistently high temperature and relative humidity levels. The 1756-L83EK ControlLogix 5580 processor module is a scalable controller solution that accepts multiple inputs and outputs in the same rack. It can be placed anywhere on the ControlLogix I/O chassis. The controller receives data from the I/O module through the backplane or its Ethernet/IP ports, which can reach the distributed I/O system. The capacity of the Ethernet node controller is 250. The controller also has 1 USB 2.0 port available.
The Allen-Bradley 1756-L83EK processor module can cover 32 tasks, each with 1,000 programs. For applications requiring integrated motion, the 1756-L83EK processor module has solutions that work with EtherNet/IP networks, SERCOS interfaces, and simulation options such as LDT (linear displacement sensor), encoder input, and SSI (serial synchronous input). The programs entered by the user to control the operation of the machine or system are stored in non-volatile memory.
The product offers high immunity to electrical noise, shock and vibration. The processor module can operate at temperatures below 60 degrees Celsius. When the device is working normally, the "OK" and "RUN" LED indicators on the front of the module light up green.
