It is directly installed to the enclosure subpanel via the provided mounting tabs located on top and bottom of the chassis. Install this chassis at a temperature range of 0…60 °C (32…140 °F) for Series A and B chassis and -25…+60 °C (-13…+140 °F) for Series C chassis. It has operating vibration rating of 2 g @ 10…500 Hz and operating shock rating of 30 g. This chassis may be used with the Logix 5560, 5570 and 5580 product families.

The 1756-A13 has backplane current consumption of 1.5 A @ 1.2VDC; 4A/4A @ 3.3 VDC; 15 A/6 A @ 15 A/6 A and 2.8 A/2.8 A @ 24VDC. It has power dissipation of 5.4 Watts with an open type enclosure rating.
