The Reliance Electric AutoMate 45C40 is a Dual Input Module
Designed for use in the AutoMate series of programmable logic controllers (PLCs), specifically within the AutoMax or AutoMate DCS 5000 systems. Below is a detailed description based on available information:
Key Features and Specifications:
Type: Dual AC/DC Input Module
Voltage Rating: 115V AC/DC (nominal)
Channels: 2 input channels
Response Time: 9.5 ms at 60 Hz
Turn-On Time: 2.0 ms after the threshold is exceeded
Turn-Off Time: 19.0 ms after the threshold is removed
AC Voltage Thresholds:
ON: 80 Volts
OFF: 60 Volts
Impedance: 18.1 kiloOhms at nominal voltage
Optical Isolation: Features optically isolated inputs to prevent false triggering from external interference, ensuring reliable operation by energizing only when a pre-determined voltage threshold is reached.
Minimum Current Resistor: Each input includes a resistor to draw sufficient current, preventing contact-film buildup.
Applications: Used in industrial automation for monitoring and controlling processes in manufacturing, CNC systems, or other PLC-based setups.
Compatibility: Designed for AutoMate or AutoMax PLC systems, often paired with controllers like the 45C1A or racks like the 45C312.
