Information About 1791-16BC

The 1791-16BC is part of Allen-Bradley’s Block I/O family, engineered to operate as a standalone Remote I/O chassis with embedded power, communication, and I/O processing. It supports seamless integration with PLC-2, PLC-3, PLC-5, and SLC 5000 controllers through its Remote I/O interface. The module features 16 discrete inputs and 16 outputs arranged in two groups of eight, enabling efficient signal distribution in modular control architectures. With support for various Remote I/O baud rates and daisy-chain connections, it is commonly positioned close to field devices for streamlined installation in industrial environments.

Key Features:

  • 16 digital inputs: Accepts 10–30 VDC input signals per channel.
  • 16 digital outputs: Provides 10–30 VDC output capability for field devices.
  • Integrated Remote I/O interface: Operates as a dedicated RIO adapter for AB controllers.
  • Built-in power supply: Eliminates need for external power conditioning or fusing.
  • Two groups of I/O: Organized as 2 groups of 8 channels each.
  • Flexible mounting orientation: Supports horizontal and vertical installation arrangements.
  • Wide operating voltage: External supply range of 19.2–30 VDC.
  • Signal conditioning circuitry: Ensures stable input and output performance.
  • Internally fused protection: Module-level protection without external fuses for power.
  • Industrial enclosure requirement: Must be installed in a protective enclosure for environmental safety.
  • Compact footprint: Measures 6.95 × 4.35 × 3.85 inches for panel integration.

The 1791-16BC delivers the reliability and precision required for distributed remote I/O applications in industrial automation systems.
