Product Overview

The 1762-L24BXB is a MicroLogix 1200 Programmable Logic Controller from Allen-Bradley. This compact controller integrates 24 inputs and outputs for small-scale automation. It provides ten standard 24VDC inputs and four fast 24VDC inputs. It also offers five relay outputs, four 24VDC FET outputs, and one high-speed FET output. This PLC supports DF1, DH-485, ASCII, and MODBUS protocols via an embedded 8-pin mini-DIN serial port. The controller operates on a 24VDC power supply and is suitable for micro automation tasks.

Application Scenarios

Engineers use this controller for conveyor sorting systems, packaging machines, and simple material handling. Its fast inputs and high-speed output enable precise counting and position monitoring. The 1762-L24BXB works reliably in environments requiring control of relays and FET loads. It interfaces with SCADA and HMI systems for operator interaction.

Technical Specifications

The 1762-L24BXB features a built-in power supply with 24VDC input. Key specs include: 10 standard 24VDC inputs (sink/source), 4 fast 24VDC inputs, 5 relay outputs rated at 24-125VDC or 120-240VAC, 4 FET 24VDC outputs, and 1 high-speed FET output. The power supply output is 400 mA at 5VDC and 350 mA at 24VDC. Important Data: The inrush current is 15A for 20 ms at 24VDC. Power supply usage is 27 Watts. Heat dissipation is 17 Watts. The operating temperature range is 0 to 55 degrees Celsius. The controller supports DIN rail or panel mounting. Dimensions: 90 mm (height) x 160 mm (width) x 87 mm (depth).

Installation & Maintenance Guide

Mount the controller on a DIN rail in an industrial enclosure to reduce electrical interference. Keep it away from AC motor drives, power lines, and relays. Ensure proper grounding and use shielded cables for communication. Routine maintenance includes checking terminal connections for tightness and inspecting the environment for dust or moisture. Replace the unit if the power supply fails.
