This is the PLC trainer for learning Allen Bradley Controllogix and Compactlogix with everything you need to start your PLC programming career. Designed for both schools and individuals who wish to learn more than the basic trainers and instruction manuals can teach.
NOTE: Lessons are currently being written for this trainer and you will find them in the Allen Bradley RsLogix 5000 PLC Trainer Lessons section when available. In the Lessons section you will find lots of other curriculum to help you including the "Allen Bradley RsLogix 500 PLC Trainer Lessons" which this trainer's lessons will be modeled after and the "Designing And Building Electrical Control Panel Lessons".
The Compactlogix PLC includes 16 discrete 24VDC inputs and 16 discrete 24VDC outputs. Your trainer does not include the Logix Designer (formerly RsLogix 5000). If you need it, see our Allen Bradley Controllogix Compactlogix PLC Trainer with Studio 5000 Logix Designer Mini Edition.
The trainer requires 120VAC and plugs into your typical wall outlet.
In addition to learning PLC programming and troubleshooting, these lessons will teach you how to wire and diagnose control systems. This curriculum will help you gain valuable insight into how industrial control panels are wired and operate. All circuits in these self paced lessons are 24VDC.
Your trainer includes:
- Push Button - Your trainer comes with four push buttons. A green, yellow, and blue momentary push button and a red maintained mushroom button (note image does not show mushroom button). Each button has two normally open (NO) contacts and two normally closed (NC) contacts. The normally open contacts are color coded green and the normally closed contacts are color coded red on the back of the trainer.
- Selector Switch 2 Position - Your trainer has two 2 position selector switches. There is a normally open contact on each selector switch that closes when you turn the switch to the right (clockwise).
- Selector Switch 3 Position - Your trainer has two 3 position selector switches. There is a normally open contact for both the left and right position of the selector switch.
- Lights - Your trainer has four lights colored green, yellow, red, and blue.
- Analog Potentiometer and Gauge - Your trainer has a 10K potentiometer and a 4-20mA analog gauge.
- 24VDC Power Supply - Your trainer comes with a 24VDC 50 watt switching power supply. The trainer is designed for all switches, lights, relay/contactor, and even the heater to be powered by 24VDC making it much safer than 120VAC trainers.
- Terminal blocks - To make your trainer more realistic, we have included terminal blocks for connecting to the 24VDC power supply and the heater. You may add more as you customize your trainer.
These trainers are built to order and typically take 2-4 days to ship.
