The 1769-OB16P is a solid-state output module that is part of the 1769 Compact I/O product family. This module is compatible for use with Allen-Bradley’s CompactLogix and MicroLogix controllers. With CompactLogix, it may be installed as a local I/O module as well as an expansion I/O module. With MicroLogix, it may server as a local I/O expansion module.

The 1769-OB16P delivers an output voltage range of 20.4-26.4VDC in sourcing configuration. Each output channel exhibits signal transition of delay of 1.0 ms for ON transition and 2.0 ms for OFF transition. It has a current draw of 160 mA and provides output current of 0.5 A @ 60 °C (140 °F) or 1.0 A @ 30 °C (86 °F) per channel and 4.0 A @ 60 °C (140 °F) or 8.0 A @ 30 °C (86 °F) per module. It has a Surge current rating of 2.0 A for 10 ms that is repeatable every 1 s.

The 1769-OB16P protection is provided with a 1769-RTB18 Removable Terminal Block (RTB), 1769-RL1 Door label and a 1769-RD Door. This can be separately ordered via individual kits. The power supply distance rating of the 1769-OB16P is Eight (8) module which refer to the location of module with reference to the power supply. It must not be installed more than the power supply distance rating to maintain a valid CompactLogix configuration. Additional power supply modules such as the 1769-PA2, 1769-PB2, 1769-PA4, 1769-PB4 may be used and installed along the CompactLogix assembly to power modules beyond the capability of the primary power supply.

The 1769-OB16P output module has a voltage output delay of 1.0 milliseconds and an output delay (off-mode) of 2.0 milliseconds. It has a 160 mA draw current at 5.1 Volts DC and 2.69 W of heat dissipation. The 1769-OB16P output module also has a leakage current of 1.0 mA at 26.4 Volts DC and a minimum on-state current rating of 1.0 mA. The 1769-OB16P Allen-Bradley output module has a maximum on-state drop voltage rating of 0.5 Volts and it comes with 0.5 Amps of maximum current rating at 60 degrees Celsius (140 degrees Fahrenheit) and 1.0 Amps of maximum current rating at 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit) per point. It also has a 4.0 Amps maximum current rating at 60 degrees Celsius (140 degrees Fahrenheit) and an 8.0 Amps maximum current rating at 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit) per module, alongside a surge current rating of 2.0 Amps at 10 milliseconds, which is repeated every 1 second. The 1769-OB16P output module is equipped with IEC Class 2 reinforced insulation, which can offer protection from a voltage of up to 75 Volts DC. The 1769-OB16P output module has 8 modules, and approximate dimensions of 4.65 x 1.38 x 3.43 inches. It weighs 0.56 pounds.
