1794 FLEX I/O
| Introduction | Product Design | Typical Configurations | Specifications | I/O Communication Adapters | Digital I/O Modules |
| Analog, Thermocouple, and RTD I/O Modules | Specialty I/O Modules | HART Smart Instrumentation | Terminal Bases and Accessories | Power Supplies | Encompass Partner Products |
The FLEX I/O module plugs into the terminal base, connecting to the I/O bus and field devices. Since there is no direct wiring to the I/O module, you can remove and insert modules under power, enabling you to change modules without disturbing field wiring, other I/O modules, or system power. This eliminates costly downtime and the inefficiencies of restarting a system.
Features
- Modules are available in densities ranging from 8 to 32 points.
- Digital I/O modules cover a wide electrical range:
- 120V AC: input, output and isolated input, output modules; 8 and 16 point
- 220V AC: input and output modules; 8 and 16 point
- 5V DC: TTL input and output modules, 16 point
- 24V DC: input, output, and combination modules; sink or source; protected; electronically fused; diagnostic; 8, 16, and 32 point
- 48V DC: sink input, source output modules; 16 point
- 125V DC: sink input module; 16 point
- Relay: sink/source, 8 point
- 120V AC: input, output and isolated input, output modules; 8 and 16 point
- Isolated inputs and outputs can be used in applications such as motor control centers, where individual control transformers are used.
- Protected (P) outputs have electronic protection, which acts to shut the module down in reaction to a short circuit, overload, or over-temperature condition. Recovery from shutdown is automatic upon removal of the output fault. No fault status is provided to the processor.
- Electronic fused (EP) module acts to open the output when a fault occurs. The "fuse" can be reset by operating a pushbutton, via software, or by cycling the input power. Fault status is provided to the processor.
- Diagnostic (D) modules detect, indicate, and report the following faults:
- open input or output field devices or wiring
- shorted output field devices
- shorted input or output wiring
- reverse polarity of user supply wiring
- open input or output field devices or wiring
- Selectable input filter times from <1…60 ms.
- LED for each channel indicating status of:
- corresponding input device
- output signal
- corresponding input device
- Conformal coated (K) versions of standard modules.
- Extreme environment (XT) versions of standard modules.
