Product Description
The Allen-Bradley 1775-MEFA Series A is a 256K memory module for the PLC-3 3/10 programmable controller, providing program data storage and backup. It occupies a single slot in the processor chassis, using a non-rechargeable lithium battery for up to 75 days of memory retention during power outages. The module features volatile, low-power Static CMOS RAM with Error Detection and Correction (EDC), drawing 1.9A at 5V DC and 0.15A at 15V DC from the chassis power supply. Installation involves removing power, inserting the module into the designated slot, securing it with the chassis latch, setting the thumbwheel switch, and restoring power. The module monitors its own status, correcting single-bit memory errors without system interruption, and operates between 32-140F with 5-95% humidity, and can be stored between -40-185F.
Is Your Device Showing These Signs?
The Allen Bradley 1775-MEFA commonly experiences issues such as backplane communication failures due to corroded connector pins, requiring thorough cleaning or replacement. Memory corruption within the module leads to PLC faults and program instability, necessitating memory module replacement or firmware reflashing. Power supply degradation causes intermittent operation and system crashes; replace the power supply to ensure stable voltage levels. Resolve I/O module communication errors by verifying proper addressing and configuration settings within the PLC program. Address software compatibility problems by updating the PLC firmware to the latest revision.
