Product Description

The Allen-Bradley SLC 500 family (1747 series) is the legendary modular small PLC platform that powered factories worldwide from the 1990s to the 2020s. With processors ranging from the basic SLC 5/01 (DH485 only) to the powerful SLC 5/05 with built-in Ethernet, it offers unmatched flexibility through a vast ecosystem of I/O, communication, and specialty modules. Even though officially obsolete since 2017, millions of SLC 500 systems remain in operation thanks to Rockwell’s long-term support, making it the most enduring small PLC ever built.

Standard Features

  • True modular architecture: Mix any combination of digital, analog, and specialty modules in up to 3 chassis (30 slots total).

  • Rock-solid reliability: Proven in the toughest environments for over 30 years – still running in countless plants today.

  • Universal programming: RSLogix 500 software with ladder, function block, and structured text – same code runs on all processors.

  • Massive installed base: Largest spare parts availability and third-party support of any legacy PLC platform.

  • Future-proof migration path: Direct upgrade to CompactLogix 5380/5370 with 1747-AENTR adapter – keep existing I/O wiring.
