Allen-Bradley 1746-A2 Expansion Module
The AB 1746-A2 is an expansion module designed for the Allen-Bradley SLC 500 series of programmable logic controllers (PLCs) by Rockwell Automation. It's no longer in production, but you might find surplus stock from some vendors. Function:The primary function of the AB 1746-A2 is to increase the number of available I/O (Input/Output) points for your SLC 500 system. By adding this module, you can connect more sensors and actuators to your PLC for expanded control capabilities.Specifications:I/O Type: While specific details are scarce, the AB 1746-A2 likely offers additional digital I/O points. This means it can handle connections to digital sensors (inputs) and control digital devices like relays or solenoids (outputs).Number of I/O Points: Unfortunately, pinpointing the exact number of I/O points offered by the 1746-A2 is challenging without an official datasheet. It could be 8, 16, or even more depending on the module design.Compatibility: The 1746-A2 is designed to work seamlessly w
