Allen-Bradley 1747-M13 Memory Module for SLC 500
Description
Overview
The Allen-Bradley 1747-M13 Memory Module is an EEPROM memory module from the SLC 500 family, used for program and data table storage on SLC 5/03, 5/04 and 5/05 processors. With 64K of memory capacity, the module gives maintenance teams a reliable way to back up the processor program and protect the control logic of a machine or process. For plants running Allen-Bradley SLC 500 controllers, the Allen-Bradley 1747-M13 is a genuine OEM spare that belongs in every control-room spares cabinet.
Engineering Design
The Allen-Bradley 1747-M13 installs into the memory module slot of a SLC 500 processor, where it holds a copy of the processor program and data table. Because the memory content is stored in EEPROM, it is retained without battery backup, which means the program survives power loss and can be restored quickly after a processor failure or a memory error. The module is designed for the SLC 5/03, 5/04 and 5/05 processors, and it is used both as a working program carrier and as an offline backup medium when processors are swapped during maintenance.

FAQ
What is the Allen-Bradley 1747-M13?
The Allen-Bradley 1747-M13 is an EEPROM memory module from the SLC 500 family, used for program and data table storage on SLC 5/03, 5/04 and 5/05 processors.
How much memory does the 1747-M13 provide?
The module provides 64K of memory capacity for program and data table storage.
Which processors work with the 1747-M13?
The module is designed for the SLC 5/03, SLC 5/04 and SLC 5/05 processors.
Does the 1747-M13 need a battery?
No. Because the memory content is stored in EEPROM, it is retained without battery backup, so the program survives power loss.
How can I order the 1747-M13 from Seven Star LLC?
Send your request through our inquiry page with the catalog number 1747-M13 and your processor model. Our team confirms availability and compatibility before delivery.
Compatibility & Integration
The 1747-M13 is designed for the SLC 5/03, SLC 5/04 and SLC 5/05 processors of the Allen-Bradley SLC 500 family. The module is used with the same engineering tools and procedures that already exist in plants running these processors, so a replacement module can be put into service by the plant maintenance team without additional engineering support.
Because the module stores the program and data table in EEPROM, it is a practical tool for protecting control logic across processor change-outs and for keeping a second copy of the program outside the processor itself. Plants that standardise on the 1747-M13 for backup quickly build a library of stored programs for each machine, which shortens downtime when a processor must be replaced.
Confirming the Right Module
Before ordering, check the catalog number printed on the module label and confirm the processor it will be used with. The Allen-Bradley 1747-M13 is intended for the SLC 5/03, 5/04 and 5/05 processors listed above; older SLC processors use different memory modules. Also check the processor series and firmware revision on its label, and whether the program you want to store fits within the module capacity.
- Read the catalog number from the module and processor labels.
- Check the program size in the programming software against the module capacity.
- Keep a copy of every program on a PC as well as on the module.
Installation and Program Transfer
Always power down the chassis before fitting or removing the memory module, and handle it with antistatic precautions, as the contacts are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Seat the module firmly in the processor socket. With the processor online through the programming software, the program can be stored from the processor to the module, and the processor can be configured to load from the module on power-up or on a memory error, depending on the load options chosen in the program. Test these options on a spare processor or during a planned stop, so that operators know exactly how the system will behave after a power cycle.
Good Practice and Troubleshooting
- Label each module with the machine name, program name and date of the last save.
- After any program change, update both the PC archive and the module copy.
- If a transfer fails, check that the processor is in the correct mode and that the module is supported by its firmware.
- If the processor faults after loading, compare the stored program with the latest archive before restarting the machine.
Supporting Legacy SLC 500 Systems in Oman
Many packaged units, water facilities and production lines in Oman and the GCC still run on SLC 500 controllers. A tested memory module holding the current program is a simple way to protect against a lost program, and it gives site teams a fast recovery path while longer-term migration plans are prepared.
Ordering Information
To order the Allen-Bradley 1747-M13 from Seven Star LLC, quote the catalog number 1747-M13 and the processor model of your SLC 500 system. Our team confirms availability and delivery to your site in Oman or anywhere in the GCC, and we check the module against your processor before dispatch.

About brand
Catalog numbers beginning 1756, 1734, 1746 or 5069 are read at a glance by anyone who maintains Allen-Bradley control panels. The brand, the control hardware name of Rockwell Automation, dates back to 1903 in Milwaukee, USA. Seven Star LLC sources and supplies Allen-Bradley PLC and I/O modules, communication adapters and PowerFlex drives for plants in Oman, matching catalog number, series letter and firmware against the manufacturer's documentation.
Allen-Bradley product families listed here
Current controller platforms on this page are ControlLogix, with the 1756-L85E ControlLogix 5580 controller and the 1756-PA72 chassis power supply, and CompactLogix 5380, with the 5069-L320ER and 5069-L340ERM. Distributed I/O is represented by POINT I/O: the 1734-AENTR dual-port EtherNet/IP adapter and the 1734-IB8 digital input module. Allen-Bradley drives listed include the PowerFlex 525 and PowerFlex 755. For installed systems there are SLC 500 parts: the 1746-A10 chassis, 1746-NI16I analog input module, 1747-ASB remote I/O adapter, 1747-KE interface and 1747-M13 memory module.
Where Allen-Bradley hardware is used
ControlLogix and CompactLogix controllers run packaged equipment and plant utilities: compressor and pump skids, water and wastewater plants, power distribution, material handling and packaging lines. PowerFlex drives control pumps, fans and conveyors. Many SLC 500 racks are still in service.
Ordering Allen-Bradley modules and drives: what we need
Send the full catalog number, the series letter and, for controllers and communication modules, the firmware revision printed on the side label. Compatibility with an existing project depends on these. For PowerFlex drives, give the complete catalog string, which encodes voltage, current rating, enclosure and options, plus the motor nameplate data. For SLC 500 parts, tell us the rack size and processor so that we can check slot and power supply loading in the manufacturer's manuals. A label photo avoids most mistakes.
