I have a project I want to get a L73 ControlLogix CPU for. I have a rack, power supply and a few cards, so I need a CPU, EN2T & some cards.
This is a budget build in-house so eBay is the supplier of choice.
When looking for the L73 they start at $1200, but the GuardLogix -L73S CPU's start at $600 - half the cost.
This isn't a safety project, but I was wondering if the GuardLogix can be used here for the $600 savings - just not program in any safety features.
Also wondering why the GuardLogix's are half the cost if they are supposedly a better CPU? Or are they not usable as a standard CPU?
