Brand :
Allen BradleyThe 1756-OB32 is a 32-point digital DC output module from Rockwell Automation's Allen-Bradley ControlLogix series.
It converts controller logic commands into switch signals recognizable by field actuators, driving loads such as relays, solenoid valves, indicator lights, and motor starters. This high-density module occupies only one slot, significantly saving rack space and making it an ideal choice for achieving high-density discrete control outputs in ControlLogix systems.

Q: What types of loads can the 1756-OB32 drive?
A: It can drive various DC-powered actuators, such as relay coils, solenoid valves, indicator lights, motor contactors, alarms, etc. Note that this module is a sourcing output, meaning the output terminal provides a positive voltage, and the other end of the load needs to be connected to a DC common terminal.
Q: Will the load capacity of the 1756-OB32 decrease in high-temperature environments?
A: Yes, it will decrease, requiring derating. At an ambient temperature of 50°C, the maximum output current per point is 0.5A, and the total module current is 16A; when the ambient temperature rises to 60°C, the derating per point is 0.35A, and the total module current is drated to 10A. When designing a system, the ambient temperature needs to be fully considered, and the load should be allocated appropriately.
Q: In which racks can the 1756-OB32 be installed? What accessories are required?
A: It has good compatibility. This module occupies one slot and can be installed in any standard ControlLogix 1756 series rack (including 1756-A17, A13, A10, A7, A4, etc.). During installation, a removable terminal block (RTB) is required to connect field signal cables; the recommended models are 1756-TBCH or 1756-TBS6H.
