Quad Pak AC Output

OAC5Q

Module

Features

Contains four single-channel I/O circuits.

Each module can be divided into two pairs with each
pair sharing a common connection.

used for controlling or switching AC loads.

Provides up to 4,000 Vrms of optical isolation between
field devices and control logic.

Features zero voltage turn-on and zero current turn-off

Description

Quad Pak modules contain the equivalent of four single­channel I/O circuits in a single high-density package. Each
Quad Pak module can be divided into two pairs with each pair
sharing a common connection.

Quad Pak modules are designed to plug into the Quad Pak
high-density I/O mounting racks only and cannot be plugged
into single-channel racks. Quad Pak modules are designed to
work with a 5 VDC logic voltage only and can be used with
Optomux, Pamux, and Mistic protocol brain boards and
mounting racks as well as racks using a direct cable
connection to a computer.

Quad Pak AC Output Module

AC output modules are used for controlling or switching AC
loads. Each module provides up to 4,000 Vrms of optical
isolation between the field devices and the control logic. The
Quad Pak AC output module features zero voltage turn-on
and zero current turn-off.

Typical uses and applications for AC output modules include
switching the following loads:

Relays
Solenoids and Contactors
Motor Starters
Heaters
Lamps or Indicators
