Allen-Bradley 1746-OV16

The Allen-Bradley 1746-OV16 discrete output module is engineered for the SLC 500 system, offering 16 sinking output channels in a compact design. With a voltage range of 10-50VDC, this module excels at driving DC-operated loads like relay coils and annunciators, requiring a minimum operational voltage of 24VDC. It boasts impressively low backplane current consumption of just 0.270 Amperes at 5VDC, ensuring energy efficiency while handling surge currents of 3.0A for up to 10 milliseconds. Signal transitions are precise, with delays as brief as 0.1ms for ON-to-OFF and 1.0ms for OFF-to-ON switching. The one-slot width design seamlessly integrates with Modular style SLC 500 hardware, while a removable terminal block simplifies wiring and maintenance, making the 1746-OV16 an ideal choice for robust automation applications.
