Information About 1746-NI4

The 1746-NI4 is part of the SLC 500 product family, designed to expand controller functionality with high-resolution analog inputs. It features four non-isolated differential input channels that can be configured for either –20 to +20 mA current loops or –10 to +10 VDC voltage signals. Using Delta-Sigma modulation, the module provides data ranges of –16,384 to +16,384 (current) or –32,768 to +32,767 (voltage), ensuring precise digital conversion. It achieves typical accuracy of ±0.284% full scale at 25 °C, with drift compensation across operating temperatures. Current input impedance is 250 Ω, while voltage input impedance is 1 MΩ, with built-in overvoltage protection up to 220 V DC or AC RMS. The module requires 25 mA at 5 VDC and 85 mA at 24 VDC from the backplane. It includes LED indicators for channel and module diagnostics, improving troubleshooting and reducing downtime. Compatible with both fixed and modular SLC 500 controllers, the 1746-NI4 supports scalable control architectures across diverse industries.

Key Features:

  • Design: Analog input module for SLC 500 systems with four differential channels.
  • Signal Ranges: Selectable per channel – ±20 mA current or ±10 VDC voltage.
  • Resolution: 16-bit digital conversion with Delta-Sigma modulation.
  • Accuracy: ±0.284% of full scale at 25 °C; ±0.504% at 60 °C.
  • Impedance: 250 Ω for current inputs; 1 MΩ for voltage inputs.
  • Protection: Continuous overvoltage protection up to 220 V AC/DC.
  • Backplane Current: 25 mA at 5 VDC and 85 mA at 24 VDC.
  • Diagnostics: Channel and module status LEDs with controller diagnostic reporting.
  • Integration: Compatible with both fixed and modular SLC 500 controllers.
  • Applications: Suitable for monitoring process variables in manufacturing, utilities, and industrial automation.

The 1746-NI4 provides precise and flexible analog measurement capability, making it a reliable choice for integrating process signals in SLC 500 control systems.

Frequently Asked Questions about 1746-NI4
Question: What is the 1746-NI4 module?
Date Update:28/05/2025
Answer:

The 1746-NI4 is a 4-channel analog input module from the SLC 500 series by Allen-Bradley. It is designed to provide analog input capability to SLC 500 PLCs. This module can measure and convert analog signals from sensors or other devices (such as temperature sensors, pressure transducers, and flow meters) into digital values that the SLC 500 controller can process.

Question: What types of signals can the 1746-NI4 module accept?
Date Update:28/05/2025
Answer:

The 1746-NI4 module accepts 4-20 mA and 0-10 V analog input signals. These are standard analog signal ranges commonly used in industrial control systems for monitoring and controlling various process parameters.

Question: How many input channels does the 1746-NI4 have?
Date Update:28/05/2025
Answer:

The 1746-NI4 module provides 4 input channels, each of which can accept either a 4-20 mA or 0-10 V analog signal. This allows the module to monitor up to four analog devices simultaneously.

Question: How is the 1746-NI4 configured?
Date Update:28/05/2025
Answer:

The 1746-NI4 module is configured using RSLogix 500 software. The configuration involves setting the input type (voltage or current), scaling the input values to match the required units (e.g., degrees Celsius, PSI, etc.), and assigning the module’s input channels to the appropriate locations in your project. After configuration, the module communicates with the SLC 500 PLC and transfers the processed analog data.

Question: What is the accuracy of the 1746-NI4 module?
Date Update:28/05/2025
Answer:

The 1746-NI4 module has a typical 0.1% accuracy for both current and voltage inputs. This means that the module can convert the analog signal to a digital value with a relatively small margin of error, ensuring reliable measurements for control and monitoring applications.
