Allen Bradley 1794-TB3S

Operating Parameters

Voltage: The Allen Bradley 1794-TB3S operates at specific voltages, typically producing 9, 12, and 24 volts for industrial control. This guarantees compatibility with the myriad power supplies as well as other electrical components within industrial systems. For example, it can provide voltages typically found in factory automation environments, so it can be easily integrated into existing electrical infrastructure.

Current Carrying Capacity: The Allen Bradley 1794-TB3S has a rated current carrying capacity, specifying how much current it can safely carry. You'll be watching until October 2023. Designed with a wide range of industrial loads in mind, it can source and distribute enough power between them to keep efficiency high.

Environmental Specifications: The rugged design is suitable for industrial environments. The operating temperature range is carefully tuned from a low enough limit (such as on an icy factory floor) to a high enough upper limit (to cope with winter heat), and they are protected from dust and water ingress, so they can also be given an appropriate protection rating (IP), ensuring that the equipment can work reliably even in dirty and/or wet conditions.

Product Features

Patch Cord Termination and Distribution: Provides signal termination and distribution. It is where signals from multiple sources (such as sensors, actuators, and other field devices) come together. It terminates the signal without causing reflections, ensuring reliable data transmission. It also routes the signal to the appropriate endpoint in the control system, such as a PLC or other I/O modules.

Provides seamless connection options: The Allen Bradley 1794-TB3S has multiple ports and connectors, allowing more types of cables to be connected and removed without damaging or destroying the equipment. This flexibility enables industrial control networks to be quickly reconfigured. For example, in a manufacturing plant, production lines may need to be adjusted or updated frequently; the 1794-TB3S makes it easy to remove and add devices from the network.

Diagnostic function: The Allen Bradley 1794-TB3S is able to continuously monitor the status of the signal passing through it and check for abnormalities or faults. If a signal interruption or short circuit occurs, it can quickly detect the fault and send instructions to the control system. The predictive diagnostic function also helps to reduce downtime, thereby improving the overall efficiency of industrial processes.

Application range

Automobile production: One common area where the Allen Bradley 1794-TB3S is used is in automobile production plants, where it is used to control complex networks of sensors and actuators on assembly lines. It makes it possible for signals to communicate seamlessly between equipment such as robotic arms, welding machines, and quality inspection equipment, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of the manufacturing process.

Food and beverage processing: It is widely used in food and beverage manufacturing plants to control different processes. It distributes signals from temperature sensors in ovens, flow meters in liquid processing lines, and actuators that control packaging machinery. This prevents the production of new foods and beverages with the same hazards.

Pharmaceutical industry: The pharmaceutical industry requires strict quality and regulatory compliance, and the Allen Bradley 1794-TB3S is used to control clean and hygienic environments. It ensures the correct information transfer between the equipment that observes and manages the manufacturing of pharmaceutical products, from raw material processing to final packaging.
