Allen-Bradley 1756-A5XT 5-slot ControlLogix-XT chassis

The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 1756-A5XT 5-slot ControlLogix-XT chassis is the backbone of an industrial ControlLogix system. The 1756-A5XT 5-slot chassis is designed only for horizontal back-panel mounting, but any module can be placed into any slot for flexible mounting. The chassis backplane provides a high-speed communication path between the ControlLogix modules installed in the chassis. The 1756-A5XT chassis is conformally coated and it can be used in ISA G3 rated environments. The operating temperature range for the 1756-A5XT chassis is from -25 to 70 degrees Celsius. The non-operating temperature range is from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius. The relative humidity (non-condensing) around the installed chassis should be between 5 and 95%. The operational vibration rating for the chassis is 2 G at 10 to 500 Hertz.
