The 1756-OA8E-CC series, also known as the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix 1756 I/O chassis, is a modular industrial control system manufactured by Rockwell Automation. It is part of the ControlLogix 5570 series and is designed for medium to large control applications.
Main features:
Modular design: The chassis has a modular design that allows you to expand its I/O capacity by adding I/O modules as needed.
High I/O count: It supports a variety of I/O modules and can achieve a high I/O count to meet various control requirements.
Hot swap: I/O modules can be replaced or added while the system is running (hot swap) without interrupting the control process, thus extending system uptime.
Backplane communication: The chassis provides a high-speed backplane communication network that enables efficient data exchange between the I/O module and the controller.
Rugged construction: The case is designed for industrial environments and can withstand harsh conditions such as dust, vibration and extreme temperatures.
Applications:
The 1756-OA8E-CC series is suitable for a wide range of industrial automation applications, including:
Discrete manufacturing: Control of production lines, assembly machines and robotic systems.
Process control: Regulating and monitoring industrial processes in the oil and gas, chemical, food and beverage industries.
Machine control: Manage complex machinery such as CNC machine tools, conveyors and pumps.
Facility automation: Control building systems, HVAC and lighting to improve energy efficiency and comfort.
Compatibility:
The 1756-OA8E-CC series is compatible with a variety of ControlLogix controllers, including:
ControlLogix 5570 Controller: The flagship controller of the ControlLogix 5570 series, offering high processing power and memory capacity.
ControlLogix 5571 Controller: Compact controller with small size and low cost for space-constrained applications.
ControlLogix 5572 Controller: Rugged controller designed for harsh environments, ideal for extreme industrial applications.
