The 1756-OB16IF is a high-speed, digitally-isolated DC output module designed for the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix 1756 chassis platform. This module provides 16 independent sourcing output channels, enabling precise control for demanding industrial applications such as high-speed sorting, indexing, and synchronized motion control. With sub-millisecond response times and per-point isolation, it effectively manages complex electrical environments while protecting backplane components from field-side surges.
This module is engineered for high-performance automation tasks requiring rapid switching and electrical isolation, including:
| Model | 1756-OB16IF |
| Outputs | 16 Points (Individually Isolated) |
| Voltage Range | 10 to 30 VDC |
| Response Time | < 25 microseconds |
| Output Current (Per Point) | 2 A @ 30 degC, 1 A @ 60 degC |
| Output Current (Per Module) | 8 A @ 30 degC, 4 A @ 60 degC |
| Backplane Power | 1.7 Watts |
| Isolation Voltage | 250 V (Continuous) |
| Compatible RTBs | 1756-TBCH, 1756-TBS6H |
| Operating Temperature | 0 to 60 degC |
Q: Does this module require a specific terminal block?
A: Yes, the 1756-OB16IF requires a 36-pin Removable Terminal Block (RTB). Compatible models include the 1756-TBCH (deep cage clamp) and 1756-TBS6H (spring clamp).
Q: Can I use different voltages on the same module?
A: Yes, because the 16 channels are individually isolated, you can connect independent DC power sources to different points on the same module without common-tie interference.
Q: What is the default state of the outputs during a fault?
A: The module is configured to default to the OFF state during a fault, though this can be programmed to Hold Last State or ON depending on your application requirements.
Our production line was down due to a faulty Bently Nevada monitor. We found it in stock here and they shipped it via DHL immediately. Back in operation within 48 hours—truly a lifesaver for our plant.
Finding brand new, original modules is critical for our safety. This team delivers factory-fresh components with full certification. Their commitment to only selling new products makes them our most trusted partner.
We have sourced Honeywell and Schneider parts here for two years. Every shipment arrives well-packaged with original factory seals intact. Clear communication and the best lead times in the industry.
