The Allen-Bradley 1769-SM1 CompactLogix module, part of the compact I/O-to-DPI/SCANport series, enhances expandability for MicroLogix 1500 and CompactLogix controllers by offering automatic detection and baud rate matching with connected DPI or SCANport hosts. Known for its compatibility with Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 7-Class drives, the 1769-SM1 operates efficiently with a module consumption of 280 mA at 5V DC and channel consumption of 60 mA at 12V DC, all while maintaining a sleek form factor of 118 mm x 87 mm x 35 mm and a weight of 142g. Designed for flexibility, it supports specific cable lengths ranging up to 100 meters and functions within a temperature range of -10 to 50 °C, although it must be operated in environments free from corrosive or volatile substances.
