Description
Product Name: 1492-DR2 Allen Bradley Processor module
Product details:
The Allen-Bradley 1492-DR2 is a Terminal Block Mounting Rail, commonly known as a DIN Rail.
- Function: Its primary purpose is to provide a standardized mechanical support structure for mounting various electrical and electronic components within an industrial control panel or enclosure. These components typically include:
- Terminal Blocks (Allen-Bradley 1492 series, etc.)
- Circuit Breakers
- Relays
- Power Supplies
- I/O Modules
- Type: It is a symmetrical DIN rail (often referred to as a TS 35 or Top-Hat Rail), which is the most widely used standard profile globally.
- Material: It is often constructed from steel for strength, but aluminum versions are also available in the 1492 family (e.g., 1492-DR5).
2. Product Specifications (Typical)
While specifications can vary slightly, the 1492-DR2 often refers to a standard size and material configuration:
| Specification | Value/Detail |
| Part Number | 1492-DR2 |
| Category | Panel Accessories / DIN Rail and Track |
| Profile Type | Symmetrical DIN Rail (TS 35) |
| Length | Typically 1 meter (1m) |
| Height | Usually 7.5 mm or 15 mm (Often 15 mm for the ‘Hi-Rise’ version or similar heavier duty rail, though the 1492-DR2 specifically refers to a standard, non-perforated steel 1m rail.) |
| Material | Steel |
| Perforation | Often unperforated (solid), but perforated versions are also common in the 1492 series. |
3. Product Advantages (General DIN Rail Benefits)
- Standardization: The DIN rail is an internationally recognized standard (IEC 60715, EN 50022), ensuring broad compatibility with components from many manufacturers.
- Installation Speed: Components simply snap onto the rail, which dramatically reduces installation and wiring time compared to screw-down mounting methods.
- Flexibility and Modularity: Components can be easily added, removed, or rearranged on the rail, allowing for simple system expansion, maintenance, and modification.
- Space Saving: By vertically organizing components, DIN rails help optimize space utilization inside control enclosures.
- Professional Look: They contribute to a clean, organized, and professional layout within the control cabinet, which aids in troubleshooting.
4. Important Considerations
- End Barriers and Anchors: Terminal blocks and other components must be secured on the rail using end anchors (like the 1492-ERL35 or similar) and end barriers (like the 1492-EBP2) to prevent them from sliding out of position due to vibration or wiring forces.
- Compatibility: Ensure the rail profile matches the mounting mechanism of the components you intend to use. The symmetrical profile (DR2) is the most common.
- Material Choice: Steel offers high strength and is suitable for heavier components. Aluminum (e.g., 1492-DR5) is lighter and corrosion-resistant but may not support as much weight.
- Grounding: The DIN rail can sometimes be used as a ground bus, but proper grounding procedures (using specific grounding terminals and connections) must be followed according to local electrical codes.
5. Product Applications
The 1492-DR2 DIN Rail is a foundational element in almost any modern industrial application that uses control panels.
- Control Cabinets/Panels: The primary use is in standard industrial electrical enclosures to mount all control circuitry.
- Machine Control Systems: Used in the panels for machinery (e.g., CNC machines, packaging lines, assembly robots).
- Process Control: In panels for systems controlling fluid flow, temperature, and pressure (e.g., water treatment plants, refineries).
- Building Automation: In centralized panels managing HVAC, lighting, and security systems.
- OEM Equipment: Used by Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to standardize and simplify the internal wiring of their products.
