Product Description

The Allen-Bradley Central Control Module, a core component of Rockwell Automation’s industrial control systems, serves as the primary processing unit within Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) or Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs). It manages critical tasks such as logic execution, data processing, communication, and system coordination, acting as the “brain” of the automation system. The most prominent families include ControlLogix, CompactLogix, and MicroLogix, each designed for varying scales of industrial applications.

Product Specifications

The specifications of Allen-Bradley control modules vary by model but include the following general parameters:

• Input Voltage: 100-120V AC, 24V DC, or 200-240V AC.

• Maximum Input Power: Ranges from 27 VA to 82 VA, depending on the model.

• Communication Options: EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet, DH-485, ControlNet (Ethernet/IP is the most viable in 2025).

• Memory: Scalable memory modules for program and data backup, supporting uploads and downloads.

• I/O Capabilities: Up to 128,000 digital and 4,000 analog I/O for ControlLogix; 24 or 40 built-in I/O with expansion up to 96 I/O for others.

• Processing Speed: ControlLogix L7 and L8 models offer double the processing speed of earlier L6 models.

• Special Features:

  • Real-time clock (RTC) for time-scheduling.

  • Four interrupt and latching inputs.

  • 20k Hz high-speed counter and Pulse Train Output (PTO) or Pulse Width Modulation (PWM).

  • Hot-swappable I/O modules (RIUP) for ControlLogix.
