Allen Bradley 1746-OX8 Relay Output Module – 8-Channel Universal AC/DC Outputs for SLC 500 Systems

The Allen Bradley 1746-OX8 is an 8-channel relay output module designed for the SLC 500 automation platform. Each output uses a high-reliability electromechanical relay, allowing the module to switch a wide range of AC and DC load types — including contactors, solenoids, pilot lights, alarms, actuators, and general control devices.

Featuring a universal voltage range of 5–125V DC or 5–265V AC, the 1746-OX8 provides exceptional flexibility in mixed-signal industrial environments. It mounts directly into any SLC 500 chassis and uses standard screw-terminal field wiring for easy installation and long-term serviceability.
