Key Parameters and Features
Core Features & Advantages
-
High-Density 12-Terminal Spring Clamp Design: The module's standout feature is its 12-terminal spring-clamp design , which provides more connection points than the standard 8-terminal base . The spring clamp enables fast, secure, vibration-resistant wiring without special tools .
-
Hot-Swap Capability (RIUP): The terminal base supports Removal and Insertion Under Power (RIUP), allowing modules to be replaced while the system is running without disturbing field wiring . Important: Do not remove or replace the terminal base itself while power is applied, as this interrupts the backplane .
-
Mechanical Keying for Error Prevention: The terminal base features orange mechanical keying to prevent incorrect I/O module installation , protecting the system from wiring errors.
-
Seamless System Integration: As part of the POINT I/O family, it integrates with Studio 5000 Logix Designer via Add-on Profiles, supports mixed I/O types in one system, and features comprehensive diagnostics . I/O modules are secured with a one-click snap-on mechanism .
Typical Applications
The 1734-TOP3S is a foundational component for building POINT I/O stations with higher channel density, including:
-
High-Density Machine Control: Connecting more I/O points for packaging, labeling, and assembly machinery.
-
Distributed Control Systems: Wiring sensors and actuators on conveyor systems and sortation equipment.
-
Space-Constrained Installations: The 12 mm width and 12 termination points optimize both panel space and connection capacity.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the difference between 1734-TOPS and 1734-TOP3S?
A: The 1734-TOPS provides 8 spring-clamp terminals , while the 1734-TOP3S provides 12 spring-clamp terminals for higher-density wiring .
Q2: What wire size does the spring clamp support?
A: It supports solid or stranded copper wire from 0.25 to 2.5 mm² (22 to 14 AWG) .
Q3: Is the 1734-TOP3S compatible with all POINT I/O modules?
A: It is compatible with most 1734 POINT I/O modules, including digital, analog, and specialty modules . The mechanical keying prevents installation of incompatible modules .
Q4: Can I hot-swap the I/O module on this terminal base?
A: Yes, the module supports RIUP for module replacement while the system is running . However, the terminal base itself must not be removed under power, as this interrupts the backplane .
Q5: What is the operating temperature range?
A: The module operates within -20…55 °C (-4…131 °F) .
Q6: What is the maximum voltage and current rating?
A: It is rated for 300V AC/DC and 8A maximum terminal current .
Q7: Is the 1734-TOP3S still in production?
A: Yes, it is listed as an Active product by Rockwell Automation .
