1746-OV8
Product Description
The Allen – Bradley 1746 – OV8 is a discrete output module designed specifically for the SLC 500 series of controllers. It plays a crucial role in industrial control systems by providing a reliable means of outputting digital signals to control various external devices.
This module features eight (8) 24 – volt DC sinking output channels grouped together. The sinking output configuration allows it to effectively interface with devices that require a common – ground connection for operation. It is a single – slot module, which can be directly installed into any SLC 500 chassis, enabling seamless integration within the control system.
In industrial applications, the 1746 – OV8 module can be used to control a wide range of equipment. For example, in a manufacturing plant, it can be used to drive solenoid valves that control the flow of fluids in a production process, or to operate relays that switch electrical power to motors or other machinery. Its reliable performance ensures that the control signals are accurately transmitted, contributing to the smooth operation of the overall industrial process.
Product Parameters
- Electrical Parameters
- Operating Voltage: 10 – 50 VDC (sink). This wide voltage range allows the module to be compatible with different power supply setups in industrial environments.
- Backplane Current Consumption: 0.135 A at 5 VDC. It has no current consumption at 24 VDC, which helps in efficient power utilization within the SLC 500 syst
