Information About 1756-OB16I

The 1756-OB16I is part of the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix family, developed to deliver flexible, high-performance output control. It supports 16 isolated outputs, each rated for up to 2 A at 30 °C or 1 A at 60 °C, with a maximum module current of 8 A at 30 °C and 4 A at 60 °C. Outputs are configurable for fault and program modes, with options including hold last state, ON, or OFF. The module operates with fast response times, featuring 1 ms OFF-to-ON and 2 ms ON-to-OFF switching. It requires a 1756 chassis and compatible RTBs such as the 1756-TBCH or 1756-TBS6H for wiring. The 1756-OB16I provides diagnostic LEDs for status indication, supports direct-connect or rack-optimized communication formats, and synchronizes scheduled outputs with the ControlLogix system clock. It also offers surge protection of up to 4 A for 10 ms per point, repeatable every 2 seconds. With industrial certifications including UL, CSA, CE, and ATEX, the module is suitable for standard and hazardous location applications.

Key Features:

  • Outputs: 16 individually isolated DC sourcing outputs.

  • Voltage Range: Operates at 10–30 VDC.

  • Output Current: Up to 2 A per point at 30 °C, 1 A at 60 °C.

  • Module Current: 8 A maximum at 30 °C, 4 A at 60 °C.

  • Switching Speed: 1 ms ON delay, 2 ms OFF delay.

  • Surge Protection: 4 A for 10 ms, repeatable every 2 seconds.

  • Isolation: Channel-to-channel and user-to-system isolation tested to 250 V AC continuous.

  • Diagnostics: LED indicators for module and point status.

  • Wiring: Requires 36-position RTB (1756-TBCH or 1756-TBS6H).

  • Certifications: UL, CSA, CE, ATEX for industrial and hazardous environments.

The 1756-OB16I delivers the flexibility, isolation, and reliability required for demanding industrial digital output applications.

Frequently Asked Questions about 1756-OB16I
Question: What is the primary function of the 1756-OB16I module?
Date Update:02/06/2025
Answer:

The 1756-OB16I is a DC digital output module used for switching various load devices such as relays, solenoids, pilot lamps, and alarms. It supports both sinking and sourcing output configurations and is ideal for applications requiring individually isolated outputs. This design allows independent wiring and power sources per channel.

Question: What terminal blocks are compatible with the 1756-OB16I?
Date Update:02/06/2025
Answer:

The module is compatible with the 1756-TBCH and 1756-TBS6H removable terminal blocks (RTBs). These 36-pin RTBs provide convenient and modular wiring for installation. They are also reusable when replacing the module.

Question: Does the 1756-OB16I require any specific fuse protection?
Date Update:02/06/2025
Answer:

Yes, it is recommended to use a 5x20 mm 4 A quick-acting fuse, such as SOC MQ2-4A, for output protection. Using proper fusing helps protect both the module and connected loads from overcurrent conditions. This is especially important when switching inductive devices.

Question: What are the physical dimensions of the 1756-OB16I module?
Date Update:02/06/2025
Answer:

The exact dimensions are not explicitly stated, but like other ControlLogix modules, it occupies one slot in a 1756 chassis. Typical module dimensions are about 145 mm x 35 mm x 140 mm (5.7 x 1.4 x 5.5 inches). Its size allows for easy integration in both local and remote racks.

Question: Is the 1756-OB16I module still in production?
Date Update:02/06/2025
Answer:

Yes, the 1756-OB16I is currently in production and fully supported by Rockwell Automation. It remains part of the ControlLogix family, widely used in modern automation systems. Its compatibility with the latest ControlLogix processors ensures long-term availability.
