Product Introduction
The Allen Bradley 1762-IQ8OW6 MicroLogix 1200 DC Input/Relay Output Combination Module is a dual-function expansion module designed for MicroLogix control systems. Manufactured by Allen-Bradley, this module integrates eight DC input channels and six relay output channels into a single compact unit, providing both sensing and control capabilities in one module.
The 1762-IQ8OW6 is ideal for applications requiring both digital input monitoring and flexible output control. The DC inputs can be configured as sink or source to detect a wide range of field signals, while the relay outputs allow switching of AC or DC loads independently. This combination reduces the number of separate modules needed, conserving panel space and simplifying wiring.
Designed for DIN rail mounting, the module integrates seamlessly with MicroLogix 1200 systems, making it suitable for industrial automation, process control, and machine interface applications.
