Information About 1747-KE
The 1747-KE is part of the SLC 500 series and functions as a compact interface module enabling protocol bridging between DH-485 devices and RS-232-based equipment. Its single-slot design installs directly into an SLC chassis, using isolated ports to ensure safe communication between networks and the backplane. The module supports DF1 and DH-485 protocols, accommodating multiple RS-232 variants for connection flexibility. Typical applications include legacy PLC communication, industrial data exchange, and integration of monitoring or supervisory systems within Allen-Bradley SLC architectures.
Key Features:
- DH-485 and RS-232C Interface: Provides three communication ports for mixed-network connectivity.
- Protocol Support: Compatible with DH-485 and DF1 for versatile integration.
- Port Isolation: 500 VDC isolation between ports for improved safety and noise protection.
- Flexible Transmission Speeds: Operates from 300 to 19,200 bps.
- Compact Single-Slot Module: Installs easily into any SLC 500 chassis slot.
- Wide Environmental Ratings: Operates from 0 to 60°C with high humidity tolerance.
- Certified for Hazardous Locations: UL/C-UL Class I, Div. 2, CE, and C-Tick compliant.
- Phoenix Connector Interface: Uses a 6-pin Phoenix connector for DH-485 cabling.
The 1747-KE delivers the reliability and precision required for communication bridging in SLC-based industrial automation systems.
