Compliance for varied circuit protection
Building machines for use throughout the world can be a very big challenge. The Bulletin 1489 circuit breaker line is listed for branch circuit applications in the United States and Canada and approved as a miniature circuit breaker for IEC applications.
The Bulletin 1489 meets North American UL 489 and CSA 22.2 No. 5.1 standards for branch circuit protection as well as IEC 60 947-2 requirements for miniature circuit breakers used in international industrial applications. To address the needs of equipment protection that are installed in electrical control panels, the new device helps with the equipment protection circuit formally only associated with UL 1077. It provides users with circuit protection from 0.5 amps to 40 amps and up to 480 volts. This versatility can reduce engineering costs, save time for OEMs, panel builders and end users and can help meet safety standards.
As circuit protection standards evolve to meet application demands, Bulletin 1489 gives users a safer, reliable option that protects personnel, equipment and facilities from electrical hazards.
High visibility push button enclosures
To meet the global needs of our customers, Rockwell Automation has added yellow 30.5 mm push button plastic enclosures to the Allen-Bradley® definite-purpose style enclosures line. These push button enclosures are suitable for applications requiring e-stop with a yellow background and/or applications requiring higher visibility of the push button station.
Reduce installation time and organize your panels with the 1492 In-Panel Wiring Systems for Base I/O of all MicroLogix™ 1500 & 40 I/O Versions of MicroLogix 1200 Packaged Controllers
The interface capability of the Bulletin 1492 in-panel wiring system has been enhanced to include the base I/O of the MicroLogix 1500 and embedded I/O of the 40 I/O versions of the MicroLogix 1200 controllers in addition to the modular I/O of 1746, 1756, 1769, and 1771 PLCs. The 1492 wiring system provides an alternative to individual point-to-point wiring from the base/embedded I/O of the MicroLogix 1500 or the MicroLogix 1200 controllers to terminal blocks inside a control cabinet. The advantage of this wiring system is reduced installation time and more organized cleaner looking panel.
Reduce system downtime with the 1492 In-Panel Wiring systems with Removable Terminal Blocks
The field wiring capability of the Bulletin 1492 in-panel wiring system has been enhanced by the addition of a “select” group of modules that have Removable Terminal Blocks (RTBs). Removable versus fixed terminal blocks, can provide the wiring system installer added installation ease and speed, especially in small control panels, or generally where wiring space is limited. They also speed replacement of a physically damaged or defective module, thereby reducing system down time. RTB type modules also allow the use of termination styles other than screw style adding to the flexibility of design benefit offered by a standard wiring system.
Seamless deployment of motor starters onto the Integrated Architecture using the E1 Plus with DeviceNet™ Communications Module
The E1 Plus Overload Relay family has expanded its functionality by now offering a DeviceNet Communication Module. The DeviceNet Communication Module allows you to network motor starters using the cost-effective self-powered E1 Plus. The module offers two discreet inputs and one output relay for monitoring and control of motor starter related I/O.

- four-channel isolated analog output module – current, 1769-OF4CI
- four-channel analog input module – voltage, 1769-OF4VI
- 24V dc single-wide, 32-point digital input module, 1769-IQ32T
- two-channel Serial ASCII module to connect to bar code scanners, printers, displays, and RFID.
Compact I/O is optimized to meet your Allen-Bradley CompactLogix™ and MicroLogix controller systems.
Minimize installation costs with a robust machine mounted motor controller
This innovative new product line is targeted for solid-state motor control applications where it is desired to mount motor controllers near the motor. The Bulletin 283 ArmorStart® distributed Motor Controller is an integrated, pre-engineered, Distributed Motor Controller for solid-state motor control applications. The ArmorStart with SMC-3 technology offers a starting solution where the requirements of variable speed motor control is not required and to minimize mechanical damage resulting from full-voltage starting.
HVAC transmitters & switches that meet the rugged demands of industrial HVAC applications
Designed for commercial and industrial HVAC and Air Handler applications, the Allen-Bradley HVAC Transmitters and Switches can help reduce your energy costs by implementing HVAC control. HVAC transmitters are 4-20 mA current loop transmitters, and are offered with temperature, humidity, or pressure sensors, for a variety of application uses, including space, duct, water immersion, and outside air. HVAC switches are offered for air flow, current, and low-limiting temperature.
Fast & easy solution to your circuit identification needs
A perfect accessory for terminal identification, the Allen-Bradley Marking System configures your terminal block markers with an easy-to-use Windows™ based software system. WinABMS software is included as part of the Marking System package and is designed to create marker card data files. The files retain input for printing on the multiple marker cards. The software runs in five different languages: English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish. WinABMS also offers flexibility in font size and orientation.
