Need help finding a chassis for Compact Logix controller

[kandymann]

Hello

I am building a PLC trainer at my office and I am a newbie.

I need help finding a chassis online for my CompactLogix 1769-L32E Controller and I/O.

I cannot find one anywhere. I was hoping you all had some other suggestions or recommendations for my search.

Thanks guys and gals

There is no chassis for CompactLogix. The modules connect to each other and mount on DIN rail.

For a trainer, which I'm sure will have some "portability", I recommend panel mount over DIN rail.

DO NOT mount on DIN rail AND screw the modules to the backplate, you will cause damage to the retaining clips.
