Keterangan
The Allen-Bradley 1746-OBP8 is a high-performance digital output module designed for the SLC 500 programmable logic controller system. Optimized for demanding industrial environments, this module provides eight sourcing output channels configured in two isolated groups of four. It is specifically built to handle high-current loads, making it an ideal choice for driving heavy-duty actuators, large solenoids, and high-wattage indicators that require more power than standard I/O modules can provide.
Features
-
High Current Capacity: Delivers a continuous 2.0 Amps per point across the full operating temperature range (0 to 60 degC) without thermal derating.
-
Integrated Diagnostics: Includes e-fuse LED status indicators for each channel, enabling rapid visual fault detection and maintenance.
-
Isolated Architecture: Outputs are organized into two distinct isolated groups to enhance circuit protection and system flexibility.
-
Robust Power Handling: Capable of managing a total module current of 8.0 Amps, with a surge current capacity of 4.0 Amps per point for 10 ms.
