This 40A rated component serves as the primary power input interface, drawing 24V DC from the power supply and distributing it to attached protection modules within the assembly. The unit includes an integrated auxiliary contact for system-level status signaling, allowing operators to monitor when any connected module has tripped. As part of Rockwell Automation's 1694 series, this power feed module provides the foundation for scalable, modular circuit protection architectures in industrial control panels. The device features push-in terminal connections for fast installation and built-in mechanical levers that enable quick attachment of protection modules without tools. Operating voltage range spans 18-30V DC with reverse polarity protection, making it compatible with standard industrial power supplies while protecting downstream loads from overcurrent and short-circuit conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features of Allen Bradley 1694-PFA1244\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e40A power capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handles up to 40 amperes from 24V DC supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuxiliary contact included:\u003c\/strong\u003e Signals trip status across all attached modules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLeft-mount configuration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard positioning for input feed applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool-free module attachment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Built-in levers connect protection modules instantly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePush-in terminals:\u003c\/strong\u003e Accelerates wiring and reduces installation time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReverse polarity protection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Safeguards system during incorrect connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specs of 1694-PFA1244\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupply Voltage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24V DC (18-30V range)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Current\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40 Amperes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Position\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLeft Mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuxiliary Contact\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-25°C to 60°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProtection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eElectronic Circuit Protection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTerminal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePush-in Connection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eApplications \/ Use Case\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1694-PFA1244 power feed module is deployed in industrial control cabinets requiring distributed 24V DC circuit protection for multiple loads. Manufacturing automation systems use this module to create customized protection assemblies where individual channels require different current ratings from 1A to 10A. Machine builders configure the 1694-PFA1244 as the input stage, then attach single-channel or dual-channel protection modules based on specific load requirements. The auxiliary contact integrates into PLC or SCADA systems, providing real-time fault notification when any downstream protection device trips due to overload or short circuit conditions. Common installations include packaging machinery, material handling conveyors, robotic work cells, and process control systems where selective load disconnection prevents single-fault scenarios from affecting entire machine operations. The modular design allows field reconfiguration as equipment requirements change, and the compact 12.5mm per channel width optimizes panel space in dense control environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRelated Resources\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/leadtime.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eLeadTime.ca – Industrial Automation Components \u0026amp; Repair Services\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/leadtime.ca\/collections\/allen-bradley\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eView All Allen Bradley Products\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/leadtime.ca\/blogs\/learning-center\/examples-of-industrial-automation-control-systems\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eExamples of Industrial Automation and Control Systems\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/leadtime.ca\/products\/allen-bradley-1609-d600n\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAllen Bradley 1609-D600N UPS Backup Power Supply\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/leadtime.ca\/products\/allen-bradley-194e-sy\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAllen Bradley 194E-SY Disconnect Switch\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Allen Bradley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47870770184491,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0837\/4671\/7995\/files\/Leadtime_4e3bebc1-3bab-4ebe-a192-15a395b53140.png?v=1723532500","url":"https:\/\/leadtime.ca\/products\/allen-bradley-1694-pfa1244","provider":"LEADTIME","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
