Information About 45C46

The 45C46 module was originally manufactured by Reliance Electric and has since been sold under the Baldor Reliance and ABB brands. While it has been discontinued, it is still available as a surplus or refurbished component from select suppliers. This module is part of a range of I/O modules that utilize optical isolation to protect against false signals, ensuring accurate and secure signal processing.

Key Features:

• Dual Voltage Comparator: Compares two analog voltage signals for precise monitoring and control.

• High Threshold Circuit Design: Reduces false signal activation by requiring a defined voltage threshold to trigger.

• INCR Reference and INCR Dead Band Dials: Allows for fine-tuned adjustments for voltage comparison.

• LED Indicators: Provides visual status feedback with ODD-HI and EVEN-HI indicators.

• Optically Isolated Design: Ensures electrical isolation from field signals for enhanced reliability.

• 10 VDC Maximum Input: Suitable for standard industrial voltage ranges.

• Compact L-Shaped Design: Facilitates easy installation in limited spaces.

The Reliance Electric 45C46 Dual Voltage Comparator Input Module is an ideal solution for systems requiring precise voltage comparison in AutoMate series installations.
