The Westinghouse 1C31222G01 is a relay output module designed for use with the Westinghouse Ovation programmable logic controller (PLC) system, similar to the 1C31219G01 we discussed earlier [1, 2, 3]. Here’s a breakdown of its functionalities:
- Function: It allows the Ovation PLC to control external devices by providing on/off switching capabilities [1, 2, 3]. These external devices could be motors, solenoids, lights, or any equipment that can be controlled with a simple on/off signal.
- Number of Outputs: While the exact number of outputs can be difficult to confirm without a user manual, it likely offers multiple relay outputs [1, 2]. Common relay output modules might have 4, 8, or 16 output channels.
- Operation: The PLC sends digital control signals to the relay module. The module then activates its internal relays based on these signals, which in turn control the connected external devices [2, 3].
Possible Differences from 1C31219G01:
It’s difficult to say definitively without more information, but there might be some subtle differences between the 1C31222G01 and the 1C31219G01. These could include:
- Current Rating: The modules might have different current ratings, meaning they can handle controlling devices with varying power requirements [4].
- Voltage Rating: Similar to current rating, the voltage compatibility of the relay outputs might differ between the two models [4].
- Relay Type: The specific type of relays used in the module (e.g., electromechanical relays, solid-state relays) could be different [4].
Availability and Finding Information:
- Availability: The Westinghouse 1C31222G01 is likely a discontinued product, although you might still be able to find it from some automation parts suppliers [2, 3].
- Information Sources: Similar to the 1C31219G01, here are some ways to find more information:
- Contact Emerson Automation Solutions: Reach out to Emerson Automation Solutions, which now owns Westinghouse [1]. Their support team might have user manuals or compatibility information for the 1C31222G01.
- Online Resources: Search for “Westinghouse 1C31222G01 user manual” or “Westinghouse 1C31222G01 datasheet” online. You might find PDFs or resources on automation parts supplier websites or engineering forums, but keep in mind the information might be less reliable than what Emerson can provide.
If you have any specific questions about the 1C31222G01, like the exact number of outputs or its compatibility with your Ovation PLC system, contacting Emerson Automation Solutions is likely the best course of action.
