Product Description P/N: 1734-MB
Description
The Allen-Bradley 1734-MB is a POINT I/O mounting base designed to securely install and connect POINT I/O modules. It provides the mechanical and electrical interface for adapters, power supplies, and I/O modules, ensuring proper backplane communication and field power distribution. With its DIN rail interlock and removable terminal block (RTB), this base is widely used in distributed I/O applications for CompactLogix and ControlLogix systems.

Information About 1734-MB
The 1734-MB belongs to the POINT I/O family, serving as the foundational hardware for mounting I/O modules. It interlocks with a DIN rail to provide mechanical stability and electrical connectivity through its integrated backplane and field power bus. The base includes an 8-contact removable terminal block (RTB) that simplifies wiring and maintenance while allowing modules to be installed or replaced without damaging the base. To ensure correct installation, the 1734-MB features a keyswitch mechanism that prevents incorrect module placement by aligning module and base notches. Modules snap into place when the base locking screw is properly engaged, while the removable locking screw secures the unit on the DIN rail. The base can be easily removed by setting the locking screw to the vertical position and lifting the unit from the rail. Measuring approximately 8 × 8 × 6 inches and weighing about 0.45 kg, the 1734-MB provides a durable and reusable mounting solution for POINT I/O racks.
Key Features:
-
Mounting Type: DIN rail interlock for stable installation.
-
Compatibility: Supports POINT I/O adapters, power supplies, and I/O modules.
-
Connectivity: Provides POINT bus backplane and field power distribution.
-
Removable Terminal Block: 8-contact RTB simplifies wiring and replacement.
-
Keyswitch Mechanism: Ensures correct module orientation and prevents misinstallation.
-
Locking System: Base locking screw secures unit to rail; modules snap in place automatically.
-
Ease of Use: Allows smooth installation/uninstallation without damaging modules or base.
-
Dimensions/Weight: Approx. 8 × 8 × 6 in., 0.45 kg.
The 1734-MB delivers a reliable and flexible mounting solution, making it essential for modular and distributed POINT I/O systems in industrial automation.
