Allen-Bradley 1746-OVP16 SLC 500 Digital DC Output Module

Product Overview

The Allen-Bradley 1746-OVP16 is a digital DC output module for the SLC 500 system. It provides 16 sinking outputs with a voltage range of 20.4 to 26.4 volts DC. This module handles high-current applications with ease. Each output can deliver 1.5 amps continuously at 30 degrees Celsius. The entire module supports a total current of 6.4 amps. It draws only 250 milliamps from the 5-volt backplane. This makes it an efficient choice for your control panel.

Application Scenarios

This module works well in many industrial settings. Use it for controlling solenoids, motor starters, and indicator lights. It is ideal for high-current loads that need reliable switching. The 1746-OVP16 fits into SLC 500 chassis for seamless integration. Factories and process plants often use it for discrete control tasks. Its fast step response of 60 milliseconds on and 2.5 milliseconds off suits rapid cycles.

Technical Specifications

Operating voltage is 20.4 to 26.4V DC sink. The module has 16 outputs with 16 common points. Backplane current consumption is 250 mA at 5V DC and 0 mA at 24V DC. Maximum signal delay is 0.1 ms in On-state and 1 ms in Off-state. Continuous current per output is 1.5A at 30 degrees Celsius. Maximum off-state leakage is 1 mA. Maximum thermal dissipation is 6.26 W. Maximum on-state voltage drop is 1V at 1A. Maximum surge current per point is 4A for 10 ms. It includes color-coded removable terminal blocks (RTBs) and LED indicators for each point. Operating temperature range is 0 to 60 degrees Celsius. It withstands 30g operating shock. Radiated RF immunity is 10 V/m with 1 kHz sine-wave 80% AM from 30-2000 MHz and 1 V/m with 1 kHz sine wave 80% AM from 2000-2700 MHz.

Installation & Maintenance Guide

Install the module into any slot of an SLC 500 chassis. Ensure the backplane power is off before insertion. Secure the module with the locking mechanism. Connect field wiring to the removable terminal blocks. Use proper wire sizes for the current load. Check LED indicators for output status during operation. Keep the module clean and free from debris. Periodically verify terminal block connections for tightness. Replace the module only with the same model for consistent performance.
