I/O and Operator Interface Products for the Automation Industry

Replacement PLC-5 Modules Available from Spectrum Controls

Isolated I/O for the 1771 platform

With the obsolescence of Rockwell's 1771-IMD and 1771-OMD modules, Spectrum Controls offers 16 channel modules that make the ideal replacement. With comparable functionality to the Rockwell modules, the Spectrum modules provide the additional benefit of channel-to-channel isolation. Spectrum Controls rounds out its PLC-5 offering with a 32-channel analog input module also.

Attention Systems Integrators
And End Users

Do you use Rockwell Automation's "RAISE" tool to specify equipment?

If so, we would be interested in knowing. "RAISE" is Rockwell Automation's on-line configurator, which draws from a catalog of Rockwell and some Encompass partner products. We are considering adding our I/O products to this tool. Because there is a cost to us for doing this, please contact us at spectrum@spectrumcontrols.com if this is something that you find useful, or if you have any comments about it in general.

Mix or match five input types with each 8-channel, high-density module. Don't forget, Spectrum Controls also offers universal inputs for the ControlLogix and SLC-500 platforms.
