1746-IM16 Allen-Bradley SLC 500 16-Point 240V AC Input Module — 100% Original Spare Parts

As a procurement manager sourcing critical spare parts for industrial automation systems, you need components that are verified, traceable, and ready to deploy. The 1746-IM16 is a factory-sealed, 100% Brand New and Factory Sealed AC input module manufactured by Allen-Bradley, designed specifically for integration into SLC 500 PLC system architectures. It provides 16 isolated input channels capable of reading 200-240V AC field signals with high precision and noise immunity — making it an indispensable Control Module for demanding plant environments.

Aging infrastructure and end-of-life (EOL) legacy systems create serious operational risk. The 1746-IM16 directly addresses this challenge by offering a 100% Original and Brand New replacement solution for facilities running Allen-Bradley SLC 500 platforms across Oil & Gas, Power Plants, Water Treatment, and discrete manufacturing. Whether you’re managing a planned upgrade or an emergency breakdown, this Original New module ships fast and integrates without configuration overhead.

Backed by a 1-Year Warranty and supported by our global logistics network, this is the spare part your maintenance team can rely on. Contact us today for pricing, lead time, and datasheet access.

Typical Application Scenarios

The 1746-IM16 delivers proven value across multiple high-stakes industrial sectors:

• ✅ Oil & Gas Facilities: Monitors high-voltage AC signals from wellhead sensors, valve actuators, and safety shutdown devices — where signal integrity is non-negotiable.
• Power Plants: Interfaces with generator protection relays, breaker status contacts, and turbine control panels operating on 240V AC industrial power.
• ✅ Water & Wastewater Treatment: Tracks pump run/fault status, level switch inputs, and chemical dosing system feedback in corrosive, high-humidity environments.
• ✅ Automotive Assembly Lines: Detects emergency stop conditions, safety gate interlocks, and conveyor limit switches in high-cycle production environments.
• ✅ Food & Beverage Packaging: Interfaces with AC proximity sensors and photoelectric switches on high-speed packaging and filling lines.

Core Features & Technical Advantages

1. Robust 16-Channel Isolated Input Array: Each of the 16 channels is optically isolated at 1500V AC, protecting the PLC System backplane from field-side voltage transients and electrical noise.
2. Precision Voltage Sensing (200-240V AC): On-state threshold of 165-264V AC ensures reliable detection across global power standards including 208V and 230V systems.
3. Heavy-duty Industrial Design: Rated for 0°C to 60°C continuous operation; built to withstand vibration, humidity, and EMI common in plant-floor environments.
4. Per-Channel LED Diagnostics: 16 individual status LEDs enable instant visual fault isolation — reducing mean time to repair (MTTR) significantly.
5. Backplane-Powered Operation: Draws only 150 mA at 5V DC from the SLC 500 chassis — no external power supply required, simplifying panel design.
6. Field-Removable Terminal Blocks: Wiring can be disconnected and reconnected without disturbing adjacent modules, enabling safe hot-maintenance procedures.

Technical Specifications & Selection Guide

Selection Tip: If your application requires 24V DC inputs instead of 240V AC, consider the Allen-Bradley 1746-IB16. For analog signal acquisition, the 1746-NI04I is the recommended companion module within the SLC 500 ecosystem.
