PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The Allen-Bradley 1746-OX8 SLC 500 Output Module provides discrete control for industrial automation systems. It features eight individually isolated relay outputs. Each point provides electrical isolation across separate load circuits. The hardware supports operating voltages across diverse AC and DC control circuits. It accommodates 5 to 125V DC at 5 volts and 5 to 265V at 24 volts.
The module integrates a removable terminal block to simplify wiring and field servicing. Each relay output delivers a maximum signal delay of 10 milliseconds. The hardware withstands a maximum operating shock rating of 10 G. Total thermal dissipation reaches 8.6 Watts, with 0.825 Watts generated per output point. Minimum heat dissipation equals 2.59 Watts.
