Bulletin Overview Analog Interface Modules (AIFMs) Fusible Fusible analog interface input modules provide a convenient method to fuse the input power source on the field side. The field-side power source is distributed through individual on-board x fuse holders. The AIFMs have a V DC indicators to reduce the troubleshooting time required to locate and replace a. Fusible modules have an easy-to-remove transparent plexiglass cover to prevent objects from contacting fuse circuitry under normal operation. Standard fuse holders reside in the IFM, aiding in the removal of a fuse with a fuse puller (fuses are not included). Isolation switch plugs, or dummy fuses, are also available to isolate an input circuit once power is removed. In addition, once the circuit has been isolated and power restored, the input loop current can be measured in -wire transmitter applications. The fusible modules also have three or five terminals per analog input point to create a power bus for device shield and power connections.

Bulletin Catalog Number Explanation Analog Cables Pre-Wired Bulletin pre-wired cables are designed to minimize control wiring in a panel. Pre-wired cables, when used with an analog IFM, replace the point-to-point wiring between Allen-Bradley programmable controller modules and individual terminal blocks. The pre-wired cables have a removable terminal block or wiring arm from the PLC on one end of the cable and a D-Shell connector with a slide-locking mechanism on the other to connect to the IFM. Most pre-wired cables use twisted pairs and all have shield to aid noise immunity of the low-level analog signals. Most cables have a prepared drain wire with a ring lug at the module end of the cable for convenient grounding of the cable shield to the chassis. They are % tested for continuity to make a perfect connection every time. The analog pre-wired cables are offered in four standard lengths of.,.,., and. m to fit a variety of applications. Other length cables are also available as build-to-order products. Pre-wired analog cables are available for many of the Bulletin SLC, Bulletin ControlLogix, Bulletin Compact for CompactLogix, MicroLogix, Flex, and Bulletin PLC- modules.

Bulletin Overview Digital IFM Modules with Field- s (RTBs) Select groups of standard, fused and relay digital wiring system modules (refer to Selection Tables) have field terminal blocks that can be removed (RTB). This RTB feature can provide easier wiring of field devices in a control cabinet where the IFM is located in a hard to reach area, or where hand-access is limited. It can also provide easier and faster replacement of a damaged or defective wiring system module. The removable plug portion of the RTB assembly has a screw at each end to securely fasten it to the RTB socket, which is mechanically secured to the module circuit board hand housing. Modules are shipped with the RTB socket, but without the removable plug(s). Plugs are available with screw style (e.g., -RTBN)or push-in style (e.g., - RTBP) terminals and must be ordered separately(two pieces per cat. no.). Refer to the selection tables for the particular PLC system of interest to determine which modules are offered with field removable terminal blocks. All of the features available on fixed terminal block products (e.g. labels, agency certification, etc.) are also provided for the removable terminal block wiring system modules.
