Allen-Bradley Controllers

Allen-Bradley control solutions set the standards - from the invention of the programmable controller nearly 30 years ago to todays open and highly integrated control platforms. The reason? A-B control solutions move you forward while protecting the control investment you made in the past. So examine the platforms below to find the one that fits your requirements today. And rest assured we'll provide you with a path to where you'll want to go tomorrow.

This includes Universal Remote I/O and DeviceNet I/O. This does not include DeviceNet I/O. This type of I/O in this control system requires a seperate I/O scanner installed in an I/O module slot. These are not on-board ports. They are available only thru an interface. Only some have on-board EtherNet/IP ports. But all have the capability to have an EtherNet/IP port added thru an interface.
