G4 DIGITAL AC OUTPUT MODULES
Features
4000 volts optical isolation (transient)
Built-in LED status indicator
Logic levels of 5, 15, and 24 VDC
Removable fuse
Current rating: 3 amps at 45° C
UL Motor Load rating: 1.5 amps
Ability to withstand one-cycle surge of 80 amps
Operating temperature: -30 °C to 70 °C
DESCRIPTION
Opto 22’s G4 AC output modules are used to control or switch AC
loads. Each module provides up to 4000 volts of optical isolation
(transient) between field outputs and the control side of the circuit,
and each features zero voltage turn-on and zero current turn-off.
All AC output modules are equivalent to single-pole, single-throw,
normally open contacts (Form A, SPST-NO) except the G4OAC5A5,
which is equivalent to a single-pole, single-throw, normally closed
contact (Form B, SPST-NC).
Each module is equipped with a 4 amp fast-blow fuse. The fuse
breaking capacity is 40 amps at 250 VAC. Current should be limited to
prevent the short circuit current from exceeding the rated breaking
capacity of the fuse.
Typical applications for AC output modules include switching loads
such as AC relays, solenoids, motor starters, heaters, lamps, and
indicators.
The G4OAC5MA and the G4OAC5AMA are special modules featuring a
manual-on/manual-off/automatic switch, ideal for diagnostic testing
of control applications.
Part numbers ending in FM are Factory Mutual approved.
Compatible with Raspberry Pi

PRODUCTS
Opto 22 develops and manufactures reliable, easy-to-use, open
standards-based hardware and software products.
Industrial automation, process control, building automation, industrial
refrigeration, remote monitoring, data acquisition, and industrial
internet of things (IIoT) applications worldwide all rely on Opto 22.
groov EPIC® System
Opto 22’s groov Edge Programmable Industrial Controller (EPIC)
system is the culmination of over 40 years of experience in designing
products for the automation industry.
groov EPIC gives you an industrially hardened system with
guaranteed-for-life I/O, a flexible Linux®-based controller with
gateway functions, and software for your IIoT application or any

to Allen-Bradley®, Siemens®, and other control systems, and
MQTT/Sparkplug communications for efficient IIoT data transfer
groov Edge Appliance
Visualization, data handling, and connectivity in a
compact, industrial box: that’s the groov Edge
Appliance. Included are:
•groov View for building and viewing operator
interfaces on PCs and mobile
•Node-RED for building simple logic flows
•Ignition Edge® from Inductive Automation®,
for OPC-UA drivers and MQTT/Sparkplug IIoT communications
Older products
From solid state relays (our first products) to world-famous G4 and
SNAP I/O, to SNAP PAC controllers, Opto 22 products last a long time.
You can count on us to give you the reliability and service you expect.
QUALITY
Founded in 1974, Opto 22 has established
a worldwide reputation for high-quality
products. All are made in the U.S.A. at our
manufacturing facility in Temecula,
California.
Because we test each product twice
before it leaves our factory rather than
testing a sample of each batch, we can
guarantee most solid-state relays and
optically isolated I/O modules for life.
FREE PRODUCT SUPPORT
Opto 22’s California-based Product Support Group offers free,
comprehensive technical support for Opto 22 products from
engineers with decades of training and experience. Support is
available in English and Spanish by phone or email, Monday–Friday,
7 a.m. to 5 p.m. PST.
Support is always available on our website, including how-to videos,
user’s guides, the Opto 22 KnowledgeBase, troubleshooting tips, and
OptoForums. In addition, free hands-on training is available at our
Temecula, California headquarters, and you can register online.
PURCHASING OPTO 22 PRODUCTS
Opto 22 products are sold directly and through a worldwide network
of distributors, partners, and system integrators. For more information,
contact Opto 22 headquarters at 800-321-6786 (toll-free in the U.S.
and Canada) or +1-951-695-3000, or visit our website at
