Installation Guidelines
- Ensure the ControlLogix chassis is powered down before inserting or removing the 1756-IT6I module to prevent electrical damage.
- Use properly shielded thermocouple extension wire to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI).
- Verify that the removable terminal block (RTB) is securely locked into the module housing before applying power.
- Maintain adequate clearance around the chassis for proper airflow and cooling, as the module dissipates heat during operation.
- Ground the shield of the thermocouple cables at the sensor end or the module end according to your specific facility grounding standards to prevent ground loops.
