Description
150-F43NBR Allen‑Bradley Programmable controller
Product Dimensions:
Allen-Bradley programmable controllers, part of Rockwell Automation’s portfolio, are rugged, industrial-grade Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs) designed for automating complex processes in manufacturing and industrial environments. These controllers replace traditional hardwired relay systems with flexible, software-configurable logic, enabling precise control of machinery, monitoring, and data acquisition. The product line has evolved since the invention of the PLC in 1970 by Odo Josef Struger under Allen-Bradley, and today includes families like ControlLogix, CompactLogix, MicroLogix, and Micro800, catering to applications from small standalone machines to large-scale distributed control systems (DCS). They integrate seamlessly with sensors, drives, HMIs, and safety systems, supporting languages like Ladder Logic, Function Block Diagram, and Structured Text via Studio 5000 Logix Designer software.
Product Parameters
Allen-Bradley controllers vary by family to suit different scales and needs. Below is a summary table of key parameters for major families (specifications based on standard models; exact values depend on configuration and firmware version):

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ControlLogix 5590 | Up to 1,000+ I/O points (modular) | Up to 40 MB (user) | EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet, ControlNet, DH+, USB | <1 ms scan time (high-performance) | Modular chassis (various sizes) | 24V DC, 120/240V AC | IP20 (chassis), -20°C to 60°C |
| CompactLogix 5370/5380 | Up to 160 I/O points (onboard + expansion) | Up to 10 MB (user) | EtherNet/IP, serial (RS-232/485), USB | 0.2–0.5 ms/k instruction | Compact (e.g., 50x90x110 mm) | 24V DC | IP20, -20°C to 60°C |
| Micro850/Micro800 | Up to 132 I/O points (expandable) | Up to 512 KB (program) | EtherNet/IP, Modbus RTU/TCP, serial, PCCC | 0.1–1 ms scan time | Compact (e.g., 75x90x80 mm) | 24V DC or 100-240V AC | IP20, -20°C to 65°C |
| MicroLogix 1100/1400 | Up to 32 I/O points (built-in) | Up to 10K words | DF1, Ethernet (optional), RS-232/485 | 0.2 ms/k instruction | DIN-rail mount (e.g., 75x90x58 mm) | 24V DC | NEMA 1, -20°C to 65°C |
| GuardLogix (Safety) | Up to 256 safety I/O + standard | Up to 1.5 MB (safety) | EtherNet/IP (integrated safety/motion) | SIL 3 certified, <2 ms response | Modular (chassis-based) | 24V DC | IP20, -20°C to 60°C |
These parameters support scalability, with options for integrated motion control (up to 16 axes in Compact GuardLogix) and safety certifications (e.g., SIL 3, PL e).
Product Advantages
Allen-Bradley programmable controllers offer several key benefits that make them a preferred choice in industrial automation:
- Reliability and Durability: Built to endure harsh conditions, including extreme temperatures (-20°C to 65°C), vibrations, dust, and electrical noise, ensuring 99.999% uptime in demanding environments.
- Flexibility and Scalability: Modular designs allow easy expansion from small machines to enterprise-wide systems; single programming environment (Studio 5000) reduces development time by up to 50% through reusable code and data sharing.
- Enhanced Efficiency: Faster scan times (<1 ms) and integrated diagnostics minimize downtime; automation of repetitive tasks reduces human error and boosts production speed by 20-30%.
- Advanced Integration: Supports multiple protocols (e.g., EtherNet/IP, PCCC) for seamless connectivity with legacy and modern devices; integrated safety and motion control eliminate separate networks, simplifying wiring and reducing costs.
- User-Friendly Programming: Intuitive software with trending, remote monitoring, and legacy compatibility (e.g., MicroLogix to Micro800 migration) streamlines workflows and lowers engineering time.
- Cost Savings: Long-term ROI through reduced maintenance, energy-efficient operations, and backward compatibility, avoiding full system overhauls.
Notes and Precautions
When deploying Allen-Bradley programmable controllers, consider the following to ensure safe and optimal performance:
- Installation: Mount on DIN rails in a controlled environment; use proper grounding and shielding to prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI). Avoid exceeding rated temperatures or humidity (typically <95% non-condensing).
- Programming and Configuration: Always back up programs before firmware updates; use certified Studio 5000 versions compatible with your controller family. Test logic thoroughly in simulation mode to avoid runtime errors.
- Safety: For safety-rated models (e.g., GuardLogix), verify SIL/PL compliance and implement dual-channel inputs for critical functions. Never bypass safety interlocks without risk assessment.
- Maintenance: Regularly monitor via built-in diagnostics; clean ports and modules to prevent dust buildup. Firmware updates should be applied per Rockwell’s release notes to address vulnerabilities.
- Compatibility: Check PCDC (Product Compatibility and Download Center) for I/O module pairings; legacy migrations (e.g., PLC-5 to ControlLogix) require protocol adapters.
- General: These controllers are not for life-support applications; consult Rockwell Automation for hazardous location certifications (e.g., Class I Div 2).
Product Applications
Allen-Bradley programmable controllers are versatile and deployed across diverse industries for discrete, process, motion, and safety control:
- Manufacturing and Assembly: Automating conveyor systems, robotic arms, and assembly lines (e.g., automotive welding stations using ControlLogix for high-speed coordination).
- Process Control: Managing batch mixing, chemical dosing, and water treatment in utilities or pharmaceuticals (Micro850 for standalone PID loops).
- Material Handling: Sorting, palletizing, and warehousing with integrated motion (CompactLogix for up to 16-axis servo control).
- Food and Beverage: Hygienic packaging and filling lines, ensuring washdown compatibility (IP69K-rated modules).
- Energy and Oil & Gas: Pump stations, turbine monitoring, and SCADA integration for remote operations.
- Safety-Critical Systems: Emergency shutdowns and guarding in heavy machinery (GuardLogix for SIL 3 compliance).
- Other: HVAC systems, elevators, and renewable energy (e.g., solar tracking with MicroLogix for cost-effective edge control).
