Allen-Bradley 1762-L24BWA MicroLogix 1200 PLC Controller
Product Procurement & Buyer Guide
The 1762-L24BWA MicroLogix 1200 controller provides a highly cost-effective solution for small-scale industrial automation.
It features 14 24VDC inputs with sinking or sourcing wiring configuration for flexible sensor integration.
This controller also includes 10 relay outputs rated for 24-125VDC or 120-240VAC loads up to 10 amperes.
The unit accepts an input power range of 120 to 240 Volts AC and dissipates only 15.7 watts.
Its integrated RS232 port supports DH485, DF1, Modbus Master/Slave, and ASCII protocols for diverse network architectures.

The compact dimensions (90mm height, 110mm width, 87mm depth) allow easy mounting in tight control panels.
Operating temperature ranges from 0 to 55 degrees Celsius, ensuring reliable performance in typical factory environments.
Relay contacts endure 20,000,000 mechanical cycles, reducing maintenance frequency and total ownership costs.
Step-by-Step Installation Guide
Begin installation by mounting the 1762-L24BWA on a DIN rail or directly to a panel using the provided slots.

Always disconnect all power before wiring any input, output, or communication connections to prevent electrical arcing.
Connect the AC power supply to the designated L1 and L2 terminals, observing the inrush current limits of 25A at 120V.
Wire your 24VDC sensors to the fourteen inputs following the sink or source configuration as required by your field devices.
Connect your relay outputs to the loads using appropriate wiring for DC or AC voltages within the rated contact specifications.
Use the Master Control Relay to implement an emergency machine shutdown circuit for operator safety.

Configure the RS232 communication port by selecting the appropriate protocol in your programming software for your network topology.
For DH485 peer-to-peer networking or Modbus networked architecture, set the port parameters accordingly in the controller configuration.
