Heat Dissipation
The following tables contain values for the heat dissipated by each I/O module.
Use them to calculate the total amount of heat dissipated by your SLC 500™
control system. For details on how to calculate total heat dissipation, refer to the
SLC 500 Modular Hardware Style Installation and Operation Manual,
publication 1747-6.2. Please note the following definitions:
• Watts per Point - the heat dissipation that can occur in each field wiring
point when energized at nominal voltage.
• Minimum Watts - the amount of heat dissipation that can occur when there
is no field power present.
• Total Watts - the watts per point multiplied by the number of points, plus the
minimum watts (with all points energized).
