1794 FLEX I/O modules The 1794 series I/O modules (FLEX I/O) is a flexible, low-cost,
modular I/O system for distributed applications. FLEX I/O combines
the terminal strip with the I/O interface so you can wire field devices
directly. The 1794 I/O modules feature:
• modular design, which reduces costs by solving a large range of
application requirements with one I/O architecture
• small size, which reduces packaging costs
• individual wire termination locations, which reduce purchasing
costs and complexity, as well as packaging costs
• diagnostics and removal and insertion under power, which lowers
the mean time to repair equipment and leverages your control
investment
• flexible communications, which helps to control future costs by
providing an economical migration path
1793 FLEX Integra I/O modules The 1793 series I/O modules (FLEX Integra) is fully compatible with
the large family of 1794 FLEX I/O communication adapters and I/O
modules. Additionally, FLEX Integra I/O modules provide I/O points
at lower cost and where cabinet space is minimal. The 1793 I/O
modules feature:
• low point count allows a more exacting mix of I/O in highly
distributed systems
When you select either the 1793 FLEX Integra or 1794 FLEX I/O
modules, you must also select:
• adapter module and cabling components
• terminal base unit
• DIN rail
• power supply
