Product Introduction
The Allen Bradley 1762-OB32T 32 Point Solid State DC Source Output Module is a high-density digital output expansion module designed for MicroLogix control systems. Produced by Allen-Bradley, this module provides 32 sourcing DC outputs in a compact housing, making it ideal for applications requiring large output counts within limited panel space.
The 1762-OB32T is engineered to switch 24 VDC loads efficiently using solid-state transistor outputs. As a sourcing (PNP-type) module, it supplies positive voltage to field devices, which makes it suitable for use with DC input devices that share a common negative reference. Its high channel density allows engineers to reduce wiring complexity and cabinet footprint while maintaining reliable and fast switching performance.
Designed to integrate directly with MicroLogix 1100, 1200, and 1400 controllers, the module supports expansion configurations where precise and stable DC output control is required across multiple field devices.
