Description
Product Name: 1745-E101/B Allen Braley Programmable controller
Product details:
The 1745-E101/B is designed to expand the Input/Output (I/O) capability of an Allen-Bradley SLC 100 or SLC 150 processor unit.
-
Product Type: Discrete Expansion Unit
-
PLC Platform: SLC 100 / SLC 150 (Discontinued)
-
Function: Provides additional discrete I/O points (digital inputs and relay outputs) to the base PLC controller.
-
Construction: Has the same physical construction as the SLC 100 processor unit.
-
Connection: Connects to the base processor unit via a communication cable (e.g., 1745-C2).
-
Identification: Features a hinged cover with color-coding and write-on areas for easy identification of external circuits.

✅ Product Advantages (Contextual)
When the SLC 100 platform was active, the 1745-E101 offered key benefits:
-
I/O Expansion: It was the primary way to significantly increase the number of I/O points for the compact SLC 100/150 controller, allowing for control of more complex processes (up to a maximum of 112 I/O points for the total system).
-
Relay Outputs: The relay outputs provide isolated switching of AC or DC loads with different voltage levels, offering versatility in connecting to various external devices like solenoids, contactors, and pilot lights.
-
Ease of Use: The SLC 100 platform was known for its simplicity, ease of installation, and minimal maintenance requirements.
-
Compact Design: It integrated seamlessly with the small footprint of the SLC 100/150 system.
⚠️ Important Precautions
Given this is a discontinued and legacy component, several precautions must be considered:
-
Obsolete Status: The product is discontinued and is no longer manufactured or fully supported by Allen-Bradley. Replacement parts and factory support are extremely limited.
-
Cooling and Spacing: Ensure recommended minimum spacing is maintained in the enclosure to allow for convection cooling and keep the operating temperature within the $0^\circ \text{C}$ to $60^\circ \text{C}$ range.
-
Grounding: The entire unit must be properly grounded during installation to protect both the device and personnel.
-
Series Compatibility: Ensure the Series B unit is compatible with any existing hardware and the application’s required functionality. Differences may exist between Series A and Series B versions (e.g., Hold-In Rungs in programming).
-
Licensing: If the system requires software/firmware updates or programming, ensure you have the proper licensing for the legacy programming software (e.g., the original DOS-based software).
🏭 Product Applications
The 1745-E101 expansion unit was used in various industrial control and monitoring applications where a small, cost-effective PLC was needed, typically for small-to-medium-scale control.
-
Small Machine Control: Controlling simple, discrete-event machines like packaging equipment, conveyor systems, or assembly stations.
-
Process Monitoring: Basic monitoring and control loops in smaller processes.
-
Building Automation: Simple control of HVAC, lighting, or access systems.
-
Legacy Systems: Its primary application now is as a replacement part to maintain and repair existing, operational SLC 100/150 control systems that are still in use in factories worldwide.
