Installation Guidelines
- Ensure the ControlLogix chassis is powered down before inserting or removing the 1756-CFM module to prevent electrical damage.
- Use appropriate 1756-TBNH or 1756-TBSH terminal blocks for secure signal termination.
- Properly ground the chassis according to Allen-Bradley installation standards to minimize noise interference on sensitive flow signals.
- Maintain adequate ventilation within the cabinet, as the module dissipates up to 6 Watts of power at elevated temperatures.
- Route signal cables away from high-voltage AC lines and heavy motor drives to ensure signal integrity.
