Request a... Price & Availability It features a built-in power supply, 40 digital I/O points (20 AC inputs and 16 relay outputs), and 2 analog inputs, making it a versatile solution for controlling machines, conveyors, and process equipment. The controller supports both RS-232 and RS-485 communication ports, as well as an Ethernet port for networking and remote monitoring. This PLC operates on 120/240 VAC input power and provides a fast scan time of 0.5 ms per 1K of user program, ensuring responsive control. It includes a real-time clock, a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port, and supports the DF1, Modbus RTU, and EtherNet/IP protocols. The 1762-L40BXBR is programmed using Rockwell Automation's RSLogix 500 or Studio 5000 software, offering a familiar ladder logic environment for easy programming and troubleshooting. With its robust construction and wide operating temperature range (-20°C to 65°C), the 1762-L40BXBR is suitable for harsh industrial environments. It is part of the MicroLogix 1400 family, which is known for its reliability and cost-effectiveness. The controller is ideal for applications such as packaging, material handling, and HVAC control, providing a scalable and flexible solution for OEMs and end-users alike. The Allen-Bradley 1762-L40BXBR is a compact programmable logic controller (PLC) from the MicroLogix 1400 series, designed for small to medium-scale industrial automation applications. Basic Product Information Built-in Ethernet port for networking and remote I/O Supports RS-232 and RS-485 serial communication Real-time clock and battery-backed memory Fast scan time: 0.5 ms per 1K of user program Operating temperature range: -20°C to 65°C 40 digital I/O: 20 AC inputs, 16 relay outputs, 2 analog inputs Technical Specifications Version & Model Difference The 1762-L40BXBR is a specific variant of the MicroLogix 1400 series. Compared to the 1762-L40BXB (which has 24 VDC inputs), the BXBR model features AC inputs, making it suitable for applications where AC sensors or switches are used. The 'R' suffix indicates relay outputs, which provide isolation and can handle higher currents (up to 2 A) compared to solid-state outputs. Other models in the series include the 1762-L24BWA (24 I/O, AC inputs, relay outputs) and 1762-L40AWAR (40 I/O, AC inputs, relay outputs, but with fewer analog channels). The 1762-L40BXBR offers a balanced mix of digital and analog I/O, making it a popular choice for general-purpose control. Application Scenarios Can the 1762-L40BXBR be programmed with Studio 5000? Yes, the MicroLogix 1400 series can be programmed using RSLogix 500 (version 8.10 or later) or Studio 5000 Logix Designer with the appropriate add-on profile. However, RSLogix 500 is the traditional software for MicroLogix controllers, while Studio 5000 is more commonly used for ControlLogix/CompactLogix. Both are supported. What is the maximum number of expansion modules that can be connected to the 1762-L40BXBR? The MicroLogix 1400 base controller can support up to 7 expansion I/O modules when using a 1762-ECR (right-end cap) and a 1762-EXP (expansion cable). The total I/O can be expanded to a maximum of 144 discrete I/O and 6 analog channels, depending on the modules used. Does the 1762-L40BXBR have a real-time clock and battery backup? Yes, the MicroLogix 1400 series includes a real-time clock (RTC) with a battery-backed memory. The battery maintains the RTC and user program/data memory when power is removed. The battery life is typically 5-10 years, and it is replaceable (part number 1763-BAT). What is the difference between the 1762-L40BXBR and the 1762-L40BXB? The 1762-L40BXBR has AC inputs (120/240 VAC) and relay outputs, while the 1762-L40BXB has DC inputs (24 VDC) and relay outputs. The 'R' in the model number indicates relay outputs, but both have relay outputs. The main difference is the input type: AC vs DC. Choose based on your sensor/switch voltage.
