Omron’s C500-OA226 is noted for its implementation as a TRIAC output unit, constructed with careful attention to its specifications and operational efficiencies. The module's weight is a manageable 0.6 kg. It has a distinctive C-shape design, allowing for convenient integration in control applications. With a maximum internal current consumption capped at 450 mA and powered by 5 VDC, the C500-OA226 is efficient and reliable.
Power management is facilitated through its dual fuse setup, rated at 5 A and 250 V, with dimensions of 6.35 mm in diameter and 32 mm in length. This provides added protection against overload conditions. In terms of its switching characteristics, the C500-OA226 can handle a maximum switching capacity of 1.2 A at 250 VAC with a frequency range of 50/60 Hz. The module allows for a minimum switching capacity of 100 mA at 10 VAC and scales down to 10 mA at both 100 VAC and 240 VAC, thereby offering great flexibility in operational capacities.
Performance metrics include a leakage current measured at a maximum of 1.5 mA when operating at 120 VAC, while this value increases to 3.0 mA at 240 VAC. The residual voltage levels are also noteworthy, establishing a maximum of 1.5 VAC for loads between 100 to 600 mA and maintaining a maximum of 5.0 VAC for lower loads. For operational timings, the ON response is robust, rated at a maximum of 1 ms, while the OFF response time is determined by half the load frequency plus an additional 1 ms.
Furthermore, this TRIAC output module is designed with 16 discrete points, structured as 8 points common across 2 circuits, which enhances its usability in various industrial applications.
