Automation SLC 500 Controllers and SLC I/O Modules
Oct 15, 2022
The SLC 500 is a small chassis-based family of programmable controllers, discrete, analog, and specialty I/O, and peripheral devices. The SLC 500 family delivers power and flexibility with a wide range of communication configurations, features, and memory options. The RSLogix 500 ladder logic programming package provides flexible editors, point-and-click I/O configuration, and a powerful database editor, as well as diagnostic and troubleshooting tools to help you save project development time and maximize productivity. Digital I/O modules are available with 4, 8, 16, or 32 channels and in a wide variety of I/O voltages (including AC, DC, and TTL). Combination modules with 2 inputs/2 outputs, 4 inputs/4 outputs, and 6 inputs/6 outputs are also available. Terminals on the 4, 8, 12, and 16-channel modules have self-lifting pressure plates that accept two 14 AWG (2 mm2) wires. LED indicators on the front of each module display the status of each I/O point. 32-channel I/O modules are equipped with a 40-pin, MIL-C-83503 type header and a removable wiring connector (1746-N3). The connector can be assembled with the wire type and length of your choice. Output modules are available with solid-state AC, solid-state DC, and relay contact type outputs. High current solid-state output modules, catalog numbers 1746-OBP16, 1746- OVP16, and 1746-OAP12, have fused commons with a blown fuse LED indication. The Step 1 - Select: • I/O modules – available in a variety of densities and voltage options. Some modules have diagnostic features, individually isolated inputs/outputs or electronic protection. • interface modules (IFMs) or prewired cables (optional) Publication 1747-SG001E-EN-E - February 2013 1746-OB16E, 1746-OB6EI, and 1746-OB32E modules provide electronic protection from short circuit and overload conditions. Wiring of 16 and 32-channel modules can also be accomplished with a bulletin 1492 interface module and pre-wired cable. All 16-channel I/O modules and catalog numbers 1746-OX8, 1746-OBP8, 1746-OAP12, 1746-IO12 are equipped with color-coded removable terminal block
