Is the Rockwell 1746-NI4 discontinued?
On ECS's lifecycle assessment, the 1746-NI4 has been cancelled: no longer sold as a current product, though spares may remain available for a period.
Source: ECS lifecycle assessment, based on ECS's internal lifecycle data in Command Centre. Last checked . Always confirm a specific part's status with the manufacturer before buying or planning a migration.
What Cancellation means for you
You can no longer order it as a normal product, and nothing new should be designed around it. If machines depend on it, you want spare stock you can rely on and a migration plan. Both start with knowing how many you run.
Before replacing an analogue module
With analogue I/O, the difficult part of a migration is often hidden in the configuration: signal type, range, scaling, resolution, isolation and any filtering used by the application.
We would capture both the hardware settings and the PLC scaling logic before choosing a replacement. That gives the commissioning engineer known reference values and avoids trying to recreate process calibration from a failed module.

Common questions about the 1746-NI4
Is the Rockwell 1746-NI4 discontinued?
On ECS's lifecycle assessment, the 1746-NI4 has been cancelled: no longer sold as a current product, though spares may remain available for a period.
Can I still buy a 1746-NI4?
Not as a normal new product. Remaining distributor stock or designated spares may still be available. Buy any you need now.
Know where every unit is before one fails.
A Capture audit finds every 1746-NI4 on your site, photographs it where it sits and checks it against manufacturer lifecycle status, so you know your exposure and where your spares are before a failure stops a line.
- Every device located, photographed and lifecycle-checked
- Findings report, plus a populated Command Centre
- No production downtime
