Product Introduction
The Allen Bradley 1769-OW8I CompactLogix 8 Point Relay Output Module is a relay-based digital output module designed for the CompactLogix control platform. It provides 8 independent relay output channels, enabling the controller to switch both AC and DC loads in industrial automation systems. The relay design allows the module to control a wide variety of field devices such as contactors, solenoids, alarms, and indicator lights.
The module supports a broad operating voltage range of 5–265 VAC or 5–125 VDC, providing flexibility when controlling different types of electrical equipment. With a 10 ms signal delay when turning on, the module delivers stable switching performance suitable for many industrial control applications.
The 1769-OW8I integrates seamlessly into the CompactLogix I/O system and is commonly used in machine automation, manufacturing equipment, and process control systems where reliable relay-based output switching is required.
