The Allen-Bradley 1746-OV8 is a dependable discrete output module designed specifically for the Allen-Bradley SLC 500 modular programmable logic controller platform. As an 8-point current sinking DC output module, it delivers reliable performance for general industrial automation applications requiring direct current switching. Built for demanding factory environments, this module integrates seamlessly into SLC 500 chassis racks to expand control capabilities and interface directly with field actuators, solenoid valves, and indicator lamps.
Engineering features include front-panel LED indicators that display the individual I/O status for rapid troubleshooting and maintenance. The module utilizes robust self-lifting terminal blocks that accommodate up to 14 AWG wire, ensuring secure electrical connections. It is also compatible with pre-wired cables and 1492 interface modules to streamline panel wiring and reduce installation time.

The 1746-OV8 module features a removable terminal block located on the front of the unit, allowing for easy wiring installation and replacement without disturbing field wiring. The terminals use self-lifting pressure plates designed for secure connections with solid or stranded copper wire up to 14 AWG. Additionally, the module supports standard Bulletin 1492 interface cables and connection systems to facilitate quick plug-and-play field wiring.
Always disconnect power to the SLC 500 chassis and external power supplies before installing or removing the 1746-OV8 module to prevent electrical shock or equipment damage. Insert the module into any available I/O slot in the SLC 500 chassis, ensuring that the backplane connectors align properly, and secure it using the upper and lower retaining screws. Connect the DC load common and output devices according to the appropriate wiring diagram for sinking output configurations.
