1756-RM2 ControlLogix redundant module

Description

The 1756-RM2 is a ControlLogix redundant module.
Here are some of the main features and specifications of the 1756-RM2:

1. Cabling and connection: For cabling, the 1756-RM2 supports 1756-RMC1, 1756-RMC3 and 1756-RMC10 cables in lengths of 1, 3 and 10 meters, respectively.
2. Safety and reliability: The redundant module features enhanced safety features and interference-free diagnostics to ensure stable system operation.
3. Redundancy features: The 1756-RM2 redundancy module has enhanced features with speeds up to 1000 Mbps. When paired with the 1756-L7x controller in both cases, it provides the best scanning performance. For cross loads, it uses redundant fiber ports with no single point of failure.
4. Communication capability: This redundant module supports up to seven enhanced ControlNet and EtherNet/IP communication modules. This means it can communicate with multiple devices and systems for efficient data exchange.
5. Power and power consumption: At 5.1V DC, 1756-RM2 consumes 1.16A current; At 24V DC, 3.4 mA of current is consumed. It has a maximum power consumption of 6W and a heat dissipation of 21 BTU/ hour.
6. Compatibility: The redundant module can fit into any slot in the ControlLogix chassis, weighs 0.64 pounds, and has an open housing. In addition, the ControlLogix 5560 and 5570 series controllers both support the 1756-RM2 module.

Overall, the 1756-RM2 is a powerful and highly reliable ControlLogix redundant module for industrial automation and control systems that require high availability, such as power, manufacturing, etc. By implementing a redundant configuration, it can ensure that the system will continue to operate in the event of a system failure, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the system.
