1734-OE4C 4-Channel Analog Output Module 4-20mA | Allen-Bradley

The Original New Allen-Bradley 1734-OE4C POINT I/O 4-Channel Analog Current Output Module is a compact analog output device designed for precise current loop control in distributed industrial automation systems. It provides four single-ended, non-isolated analog output channels, each configurable for 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA signals. Fully compatible with POINT I/O communication adapters and Rockwell Automation controllers, this module delivers precise control for valves, actuators, and other field devices requiring analog current signals.
