1746-OB16E Ser B

The 1746-OB16E Series B digital DC output module is an Allen-Bradley output module from the SLC 500 series. This output module comes with 16 outputs that it can use for making connections to other devices and its module current rating is 8 Amps. The 1746-OB16E Series B digital DC output module is made to be used with high-powered industrial applications. It runs on 10 to 30 Volts DC source voltage. This output module has met the North American Hazardous Location Approval ratings, which means that it can be used safely in certain kinds of hazardous locations as long as it is installed and protected properly. One type of protection that the 1746-OB16E Series B digital DC output module comes with is electronic protection from short circuits and overcurrents. Note that this protection feature does not replace fuses or circuit breakers, which may still be desirable or mandatory protective features in certain applications or environments.

The Allen-Bradley 1746-OB16E Series B digital DC output module is an efficient DC output module that only dissipates a small amount of its energy as heat. Its dissipation ratings are 0.675 Watts of heat dissipation minimum, 3.07 Watts of heat dissipation maximum, and 0.15 Watts of heat dissipation per output point. The maximum off-state current leakage rating of this output module is just 1 milliamp. The continuous current rating per point on the 1746-OB16E Series B digital DC output module is 1 Amp at 86 degrees Fahrenheit and it is 0.5 Amps at 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
