Hey All,
Just looking for some opinions on expected battery life in a PLC
I've had to change batteries from time to time over the years in different PLCs,
but I have one in particular that goes through a battery every 8 - 10 months.
This is a Logix5000 5560M03SE Processor and Sercos unit,
and it's the only system like this that I have here, so I have no comparison as to whether this
is typical battery life for this unit, or do I have some underlying problem.
I'm certainly not going to swap out a $7500 processor over a $80 battery every year (yeah, AB is proud of them batteries).
So, just wondering if anyone else has battery life issues with these units, or is it just an anomaly I have??
Regards
JohnR
