This module provides a reliable and effective solution for interfacing with switches, push-buttons, and various other digital sensors.

Technical Specifications

The 1756-IB16S module features 16 single-ended inputs with sourcing input type, which requires a common power terminal. These inputs are compatible with 10-31 VDC signal levels. The module has an off-state voltage max of 5V and an on-state current minimum of 2 mA. Additionally, it comes equipped with diagnostic capabilities, which makes troubleshooting simpler and helps reduce downtime.

Installation and Compatibility

Designed for easy installation, the 1756-IB16S module is mounted in a ControlLogix chassis and communicates with the controller through the backplane. It is compatible with a variety of enclosures and can work in harsh industrial environments. The module also supports both point-to-point and network connections, allowing for flexible system configurations.

Robustness and Safety

Allen-Bradley's 1756-IB16S module is built to withstand tough industrial conditions, with a voltage category of 24V DC (Sink/Source). For safety, it has a factory-set feature to ensure electrical isolation between field-side and system-side control components. This isolation helps protect the control system and personnel from electrical shocks and surges.

Programming and Integration

Integrating the 1756-IB16S into a control system is facilitated through the use of Rockwell Automation's Studio 5000 software. This software suite allows for easy programming, configuration, and maintenance of the module.
