Allen-Bradley 1769-OB16P | 16-Point DC Output Module

Overview

The 1769-OB16P from Allen-Bradley is a sixteen-point solid-state DC output module. It delivers a voltage range of 20.4–26.4VDC and supports integrated electronic protection. This module ensures reliable, fast-switching outputs for CompactLogix and MicroLogix 1500 controllers.

Compatibility

The 1769-OB16P works as a local or expansion I/O module with CompactLogix controllers. It also serves as an expansion module for MicroLogix 1500 systems. The module connects through a 16-point digital output interface, supporting standard wiring practices with 22–14 AWG solid wire.

Electrical Specifications

Each output point of 1769-OB16P delivers 0.5A at 30°C and 1.0A at 55°C. The module’s maximum continuous current reaches 4A at 30°C and 8A at 55°C. OFF-to-ON output delay is 1 ms, while ON-to-OFF delay is 2 ms. The module draws 160 mA from the backplane at 5.1 Volts. The OFF-state leakage current is 1.0 mA at 26.4VDC.

Physical Specifications

The 1769-OB16P measures compactly for easy installation in standard Compact I/O racks. Its shipping dimensions are 8 × 8 × 5 inches, and it weighs 2 pounds. The module supports installation at a distance of up to eight modules from the power supply.

Functionality

The 1769-OB16P efficiently controls digital loads with fast switching and integrated protection. Its solid-state outputs minimize wear and provide consistent performance. The module supports automation applications requiring reliable DC output control with minimal maintenance.
