Features and Beneffts
The CompactLogix 5370 L3 controllers
deliver scalable, affordable control
ideal for applications from small standalone
equipment to high performance
indexing tables, process skids, case
packers and erectors, and packaging.
Machine builders and end users can
take advantage of the cost-saving
features of these controllers:
• Support for Integrated Motion
on EtherNet/IP
• Support for Device Level Ring (DLR)
network topologies
• Built-in energy storage eliminates
the need for lithium batteries
• Support reuse of existing 1769 I/O
• Removable 1GB secure digital (SD)
card improves data integrity
• Flexible memory options up to 3MB
• Added features for hazardous
environments (NSE version)
• Support for Kinematics eliminates
the need for additional robot
controllers and software
• Open socket capability allows
support for Modbus TCP as well as
devices such as printers, barcode
readers and servers
Integrated Motion on EtherNet/IP
The CompactLogix 5370 L3 controller provides a strong motion solution
for customers looking for performance and cost competitiveness.
• Supports up to 16 axes of integrated motion
• Together with the Kinetix 350, offers cost-effective, scalable
motion solution
Network Capabilities
With dual Ethernet ports and an integrated Ethernet switch, these controllers
now support Device Level Ring (DLR) network topologies, simplifying
integration of components in your control system and reducing system cost:
• Provides resiliency from loss of one network connection
• Allows replacement of devices one at a time without stopping production
• Reduces the number of Ethernet switches in the control system
Features for Hazardous Environments
The No Stored Energy (NSE) version of the CompactLogix 5370 L3 offers
additional features for hazardous environments found in industries such
as mining and oil and gas.
• Allows safe transport of controller in and out of mining areas
• Powered down controller has less than 200uJ of residual energy
stored in each component
• No consequences of arc or spark to cause an explosion in
gaseous environment
