Product Introduction
The Allen-Bradley 1771-IBN High True Input Module is a high-density digital input module designed for the 1771 series PLC-5 automation systems from Allen-Bradley. It provides 32 high-true DC input channels that monitor discrete signals from a wide variety of field devices such as sensors, switches, and other control equipment. These signals are transmitted to the PLC processor for real-time monitoring and automated control, enabling precise operation of industrial systems.
The module’s high-true input logic ensures that voltage “high” signals are reliably recognized as active, reducing the chance of misreading signals in noisy industrial environments. The 1771-IBN is designed for compact installation in a 1771 I/O chassis and utilizes the 1771-WN wiring arm for streamlined field connections.
This module is widely used in manufacturing automation, process control, and machine monitoring applications where high-density, accurate DC signal acquisition is required. Its combination of high channel count, reliable backplane communication, and industrial-grade durability makes it ideal for complex automation systems requiring rapid, accurate input processing.
