Allen-Bradley MicroLogix 1500 / 1200 / 1000 — Replacement & Cross-Reference

The Allen-Bradley MicroLogix 1500 (1764), 1200 (1762), and 1000 (1761) are discontinued micro-PLCs. The modern path is the Micro800 family sized to the controller: Micro850 for 1500/1200-class, Micro810/820 for small 1000-class. To keep a machine on its existing program, Edmundson Industrial sources new-surplus, used-tested, and reconditioned units across all three families.

Key Specs

Is the MicroLogix 1500 / 1200 / 1000 still made?

No. The entire MicroLogix line is retired, the 1500, 1200, and 1000 included. These small controllers run countless OEM machines and packaging lines, so surplus keeps them alive long after production ended. Keep a like-for-like spare on the shelf, and migrate to Micro800 at a planned rebuild.

FAQ

Are the MicroLogix 1500, 1200, and 1000 discontinued?
Yes — the whole MicroLogix family is discontinued. New-surplus, used-tested, and reconditioned units remain available through Edmundson Industrial.
What replaces a MicroLogix 1500, 1200, or 1000?
The Micro800 family by size: Micro850 for 1500/1200-class, Micro810/820 for small 1000-class. All require converting the program to Connected Components Workbench.
Can I still buy these controllers?
Yes — new-surplus and used-tested units are available. We source 1764, 1762, and 1761 controllers and 1762 expansion I/O.
Do I have to rewrite the program?
Yes — moving to Micro800 means converting from RSLogix 500/Micro to CCW. Many plants keep a surplus controller to defer that work until a planned upgrade.
What do you need to quote one?
The catalog number (1764-, 1762-, or 1761-…) or a nameplate photo, acceptable condition, and your need-by date.
