Safety Considerations
ATTENTION
Vertical mounting of the controller is not
recommended due to heat build-up considerations.
ATTENTION
Be careful of metal chips when drilling mounting
holes for your controller or other equipment within
the enclosure or panel. Drilled fragments that fall
into the controller or I/O modules could cause
damage. Do not drill holes above a mounted
controller if the protective debris shields are
removed or the processor is installed.
Safety considerations are an important element of proper system
installation. Actively thinking about the safety of yourself and others,
as well as the condition of your equipment, is of primary importance.
We recommend reviewing the following safety considerations.

WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Do not replace components or disconnect equipment
unless power has been switched off.
The main power disconnect switch should be located where operators
and maintenance personnel have quick and easy access to it. In
addition to disconnecting electrical power, all other sources of power
(pneumatic and hydraulic) should be de-energized before working on
a machine or process controlled by a controller.
Safety Circuits
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Do not connect or disconnect connectors while
circuit is live.
Publication 1762-UM001E-EN-P - February 2006
Circuits installed on the machine for safety reasons, like overtravel
limit switches, stop push buttons, and interlocks, should always be
hard-wired directly to the master control relay. These devices must be
wired in series so that when any one device opens, the master control
relay is de-energized, thereby removing power to the machine. Never
alter these circuits to defeat their function. Serious injury or machine
damage could result.
Install Your Controller 2-5
Power Distribution
There are some points about power distribution that you should
know:
• The master control relay must be able to inhibit all machine
motion by removing power to the machine I/O devices when
the relay is de-energized. It is recommended that the controller
remain powered even when the master control relay is
de-energized.
• If you are using a dc power supply, interrupt the load side rather
than the ac line power. This avoids the additional delay of
power supply turn-off. The dc power supply should be powered
directly from the fused secondary of the transformer. Power to
the dc input and output circuits should be connected through a
set of master control relay contacts.
Power Considerations
Periodic Tests of Master Control Relay Circuit
Any part can fail, including the switches in a master control relay
circuit. The failure of one of these switches would most likely cause
an open circuit, which would be a safe power-off failure. However, if
one of these switches shorts out, it no longer provides any safety
protection. These switches should be tested periodically to assure they
will stop machine motion when needed.
The following explains power considerations for the micro controllers.
Isolation Transformers
You may want to use an isolation transformer in the ac line to the
controller. This type of transformer provides isolation from your
power distribution system to reduce the electrical noise that enters the
controller and is often used as a step-down transformer to reduce line
voltage. Any transformer used with the controller must have a
sufficient power rating for its load. The power rating is expressed in
volt-amperes (VA).
Publication 1762-UM001E-EN-P - February 2006
2-6 Install Your Controller
Power Supply Inrush
During power-up, the MicroLogix 1200 power supply allows a brief
inrush current to charge internal capacitors. Many power lines and
control transformers can supply inrush current for a brief time. If the
power source cannot supply this inrush current, the source voltage
may sag momentarily.
The only effect of limited inrush current and voltage sag on the
MicroLogix 1200 is that the power supply capacitors charge more
slowly. However, the effect of a voltage sag on other equipment
should be considered. For example, a deep voltage sag may reset a
computer connected to the same power source. The following
considerations determine whether the power source must be required
to supply high inrush current:
• The power-up sequence of devices in a system.
• The amount of the power source voltage sag if the inrush
current cannot be supplied.
• The effect of voltage sag on other equipment in the system.
If the entire system is powered-up at the same time, a brief sag in the
power source voltage typically will not affect any equipment.
Loss of Power Source
The power supply is designed to withstand brief power losses without
affecting the operation of the system. The time the system is
operational during power loss is called ‘program scan hold-up time
after loss of power’. The duration of the power supply hold-up time
depends on the type and state of the I/O, but is typically between 10
milliseconds and 3 seconds. When the duration of power loss reaches
this limit, the power supply signals the processor that it can no longer
provide adequate dc power to the system. This is referred to as a
power supply shutdown. The processor then performs an orderly
shutdown of the controller.
Publication 1762-UM001E-EN-P - February 2006
Install Your Controller 2-7
Input States on Power Down
The power supply hold-up time as described above is generally
longer than the turn-on and turn-off times of the inputs. Because of
this, the input state change from ‘On’ to ‘Off’ that occurs when power
is removed may be recorded by the processor before the power
supply shuts down the system. Understanding this concept is
important. The user program should be written to take this effect into
account.
Other Types of Line Conditions
Occasionally the power source to the system can be temporarily
interrupted. It is also possible that the voltage level may drop
substantially below the normal line voltage range for a period of time.
Both of these conditions are considered to be a loss of power for the
system.
Prevent Excessive Heat
For most applications, normal convective cooling keeps the controller
within the specified operating range. Ensure that the specified
temperature range is maintained. Proper spacing of components
within an enclosure is usually sufficient for heat dissipation.
In some applications, a substantial amount of heat is produced by
other equipment inside or outside the enclosure. In this case, place
blower fans inside the enclosure to assist in air circulation and to
reduce “hot spots” near the controller.
Additional cooling provisions might be necessary when high ambient
temperatures are encountered.
TIP
Do not bring in unfiltered outside air. Place the
controller in an enclosure to protect it from a
corrosive atmosphere. Harmful contaminants or dirt
could cause improper operation or damage to
components. In extreme cases, you may need to use
air conditioning to protect against heat build-up
within the enclosure.
Publication 1762-UM001E-EN-P - February 2006
2-8 Install Your Controller
Master Control Relay
A hard-wired master control relay (MCR) provides a reliable means for
emergency machine shutdown. Since the master control relay allows
the placement of several emergency-stop switches in different
locations, its installation is important from a safety standpoint.
Overtravel limit switches or mushroom-head push buttons are wired
in series so that when any of them opens, the master control relay is
de-energized. This removes power to input and output device circuits.
Refer to the figures on pages 2-10 and 2-11.
ATTENTION
Never alter these circuits to defeat their function
since serious injury and/or machine damage could
result.
TIP
If you are using an external dc power supply,
interrupt the dc output side rather than the ac line
side of the supply to avoid the additional delay of
power supply turn-off.
The ac line of the dc output power supply should be
fused.
Connect a set of master control relays in series with
the dc power supplying the input and output
circuits.
Place the main power disconnect switch where operators and
maintenance personnel have quick and easy access to it. If you mount
a disconnect switch inside the controller enclosure, place the switch
operating handle on the outside of the enclosure, so that you can
disconnect power without opening the enclosure.
Whenever any of the emergency-stop switches are opened, power to
input and output devices should be removed.
When you use the master control relay to remove power from the
external I/O circuits, power continues to be provided to the
controller’s power supply so that diagnostic indicators on the
processor can still be observed.
The master control relay is not a substitute for a disconnect to the
controller. It is intended for any situation where the operator must
quickly de-energize I/O devices only. When inspecting or installing
terminal connections, replacing output fuses, or working on
equipment within the enclosure, use the disconnect to shut off power
to the rest of the system.
Publication 1762-UM001E-EN-P - February 2006
Install Your Controller 2-9
TIP
Do not control the master control relay with the
controller. Provide the operator with the safety of a
direct connection between an emergency-stop
switch and the master control relay.
Use Emergency-Stop Switches
When using emergency-stop switches, adhere to the following points:
• Do not program emergency-stop switches in the controller
program. Any emergency-stop switch should turn off all
machine power by turning off the master control relay.
• Observe all applicable local codes concerning the placement
and labeling of emergency-stop switches.
• Install emergency-stop switches and the master control relay in
your system. Make certain that relay contacts have a sufficient
rating for your application. Emergency-stop switches must be
easy to reach.
• In the following illustration, input and output circuits are shown
with MCR protection. However, in most applications, only
output circuits require MCR protection.
The following illustrations show the Master Control Relay wired in a
grounded system.
TIP
In most applications input circuits do not require
MCR protection; however, if you need to remove
power from all field devices, you must include MCR
contacts in series with input power wiring.

The controller mounts horizontally, with the expansion I/O extending
to the right of the controller. Allow 50 mm (2 in.) of space on all sides
of the controller system for adequate ventilation. Maintain spacing
from enclosure walls, wireways, and adjacent equipment, as shown
below.

ATTENTION
Electrostatic discharge can damage semiconductor
devices inside the controller. Do not touch the
connector pins or other sensitive areas.
TIP
For environments with greater vibration and shock
concerns, use the panel mounting method described
on page 2-16, rather than DIN rail mounting.
(1) Pollution Degree 2 is an environment where, normally, only non-conductive pollution occurs except that
occasionally a temporary conductivity caused by condensation shall be expected.
(2) Over Voltage Category II is the load level section of the electrical distribution system. At this level transient
voltages are controlled and do not exceed the impulse voltage capability of the product’s insulation.
(3) Pollution Degree 2 and Over Voltage Category II are International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)
designations.
