The Allen-Bradley 1746-NO8I Analog Output module is designed for the SLC 500 controller platform, providing robust current outputs ranging from 0 to 21.5 mA with exceptional resolution due to its 16-bit D/A converter. Ideal for both compact and larger applications, this module can be installed in modular or fixed hardware systems, with flexibility in local, expansion, or remote I/O racks, though certain slot restrictions apply. Notably efficient in handling environmental factors, it features a thermal dissipation of 6.6 Watts and requires mindful placement to avoid electrical noise, while offering precise control for connected actuators with a responsive signal output time of just 1 millisecond.
