Allen-Bradley 1746-OV16 SLC 500 Digital DC Output Module, 16 Points, 24V DC Sink
Allen-Bradley 1746-OV16 is a 16-point digital DC output module for the SLC 500 family, wired for current-sinking DC loads..
Overview
The module provides 16 current-sinking transistor outputs in one group, switching 10-50V DC loads. Each point carries 0.5 A continuously at 30°C (0.25 A at 60°C) with 8 A per module, the backplane draws 0.27 A at 5V DC, and signal delay is 0.1 ms on / 1.0 ms off. Heat dissipation totals 7.6 W (0.388 W per point). A removable terminal block is included.
