Information About 1762-OW8

The 1762-OW8 module is part of the MicroLogix expansion family and provides eight normally-open relay outputs arranged into two isolated groups of four points each. Its construction includes robust electromechanical relays suitable for switching solenoids, contactors, pilot lights, and general-purpose AC/DC loads. The module supports both DIN rail and panel mounting and adheres to Pollution Degree 2 installation requirements. With a 6-module separation limit from the system power supply and a 10 ms signal delay, the unit integrates seamlessly into MicroLogix architectures. Its operating range of 0–55°C (32–131°F) and compact design make it suitable for small to medium-scale automation applications.

Key Features:

  • Eight relay outputs: AC/DC switching capability for diverse load types.
  • Wide voltage support: 5–265 VAC and 5–125 VDC operating range.
  • Normally open relay contacts: Ideal for general industrial control loads.
  • Two isolated groups: Four channels per group for flexible wiring.
  • DIN rail or panel mount: Supports multiple installation methods.
  • Compatible with MicroLogix controllers: Works with 1100, 1200, and 1400 systems.
  • Power supply distance rating: Up to six modules from the power supply.
  • 10 ms signal delay: Suitable for typical discrete output applications.
  • 2.5 A max per point: Handles moderate inductive and resistive loads.
  • Designed for clean, dry environments: Pollution Degree 2 installation rating.

The 1762-OW8 delivers the reliability and precision required for relay-based output switching in MicroLogix automation systems.

Frequently Asked Questions about 1762-OW8
Question: What is the 1762-OW8 used for?
Date Update:20/06/2025
Answer:

The 1762-OW8 is an 8-point relay output module designed to switch AC or DC loads using isolated mechanical relays. It is typically used in:

  • Motor starters
  • Solenoids
  • Indicator lights
  • External relays and contactors
Question: Is there a user manual for the 1762-OW8?
Date Update:20/06/2025
Answer:

Yes, the 1762-OW8 is documented in the "MicroLogix 1200 and 1400 Expansion I/O Modules User Manual," identified as publication number 1762-UM001. This manual provides comprehensive information including technical specifications, wiring instructions, installation guidelines, and troubleshooting tips. It is available for free from Rockwell Automation’s Literature Library online.

Question: How do I wire the 1762-OW8 module?
Date Update:20/06/2025
Answer:

Wiring the 1762-OW8 involves connecting your external loads to its relay contacts. The module is divided into two groups of four outputs, with each group sharing a common terminal (COM0 for outputs 0–3 and COM1 for outputs 4–7). For each channel, one side of the relay contact connects to the load, while the common terminal is connected to the power source. The relays are single-pole, single-throw normally open (SPST-NO), which means the circuit is completed when the relay is energized. You should use shielded wiring for noise immunity and protect the circuits with appropriate external fusing.

Question: What are the electrical specifications for the 1762-OW8?
Date Update:20/06/2025
Answer:

The 1762-OW8 supports both AC and DC loads, with an operating voltage range from 5 to 125 volts DC and from 5 to 265 volts AC. Each output can handle up to 2.0 amps of current, and the entire module can handle a total of 8.0 amps. It provides 1500 volts of electrical isolation between the relay contacts and the control logic, which ensures protection from electrical interference and cross-talk between channels. The module is suitable for use in environments with temperatures ranging from 0°C to 55°C.

Question: Which controllers are compatible with the 1762-OW8?
Date Update:20/06/2025
Answer:

The module is designed specifically for use with MicroLogix 1200 and 1400 PLCs. It connects via the expansion bus and is recognized natively within RSLogix 500 programming software. It is not compatible with MicroLogix 1000 or 1100 models, as those do not support the expansion module bus required by the 1762 family.
