Allen-Bradley 1756-BATM Battery Module
The Allen-Bradley 1756-BATM is no longer available, as it was discontinued by Rockwell Automation on July 18, 2017. Therefore, it's important to be aware of this before considering its use in any new projects. However, if you're working with an existing system that includes the 1756-BATM, here's an overview of its features and applications:Overview:Discontinued Battery Module: Part of the ControlLogix family, provided backup power for the controller in case of mains power failure.Lithium Battery: Offered 3.6V nominal voltage and 17,000mAh capacity.Module Protection: Included reverse polarity, over-voltage, and short-circuit protection.Features:Maintained real-time clock: Ensured accurate timekeeping during power outages.Non-volatile memory backup: Preserved critical controller data during power loss.Hot-swappable: Allowed module replacement without powering down the controller (in compatible systems).Applications:Industrial automation systems: Provided backup power for critical control
