Allen-Bradley 1769-OB8 CompactLogix Output Module

Description

The Allen-Bradley 1769-OB8 CompactLogix Output Module is a member of the CompactLogix Compact I/O series, designed for industrial automation control systems. As a digital output module, it follows the design standards of related CompactLogix output modules, delivering reliable, high-speed output control for small to mid-sized automation setups. It communicates with CompactLogix controllers via the 1769 backplane bus, ensuring fast data transmission and responsive execution of control commands.

Like comparable modules in the series, it features an IP20 protection rating, making it suitable for cabinet-mounted installation, and uses screw terminal wiring for secure, easy connections. It is engineered to drive common industrial actuators such as solenoids, contactors, and indicator lights. While specific channel count is 8 points as indicated by the model, it shares core performance traits with peer modules: it supports a 20.4-26.4V DC operating voltage, with single-point output current rated for 1A at 30 degrees Celsius and reduced capacity at higher temperatures, and a total module output current to meet collective actuator load demands. It provides isolation between outputs and the backplane for enhanced system stability, and is compatible with 1769 series power modules and DIN rail mounting systems, fitting applications in automotive manufacturing, food and beverage processing, and material handling systems.
