Product Introduction
The Allen Bradley 1769-OB16P CompactLogix 16 Point Fused Sourcing Output Module is a discrete DC output module designed for use with the CompactLogix automation platform. It provides 16 sourcing digital outputs, enabling the controller to drive a wide range of field devices such as solenoid valves, relays, indicator lamps, and contactors. The module is widely used in industrial automation systems where reliable and protected DC output control is required.
One of the key features of this module is its integrated fused output protection, which helps safeguard both the module and connected field devices from overcurrent conditions. By incorporating fuse protection directly within the output design, the module enhances system reliability and reduces the need for additional external protection components in the control cabinet.
The module operates with a 24 VDC output voltage, which is the standard voltage level used in most industrial control systems. It draws 160 mA of backplane current at 5.1 V, ensuring efficient operation within CompactLogix I/O architectures. With its compact structure and reliable performance, the 1769-OB16P is well suited for OEM machinery, production equipment, and distributed control applications.
