Description
The Allen-Bradley 1756-IB16 is a Digital DC Input Module with 16 inputs for ControlLogix systems. This is a 12 to 24 Volts DC sink type module. Its input operating voltage is 10 to 31.2 Volts DC. Operators can use the 1756-IB16 module in the local chassis of a ControlLogix PLC or through a chassis linked to the PLC over EtherNet or ControlNet networks. This DC input module houses 16 inputs (2 groups with 8 points each). It needs either an RTB or a Bulletin 1492 wiring interface module for connection purposes to industrial automation devices. The Allen-Bradley 1756-IB16 has a high-speed computing functionality and it is connected to the ControlLogix PLC via the backplane. The cycle update time is always less than 750 milliseconds.

Allen-Bradley 1756-IB16/A Description

The Allen-Bradley 1756-IB16 is ControlLogix I/O module. This 16-point DC input module, with 8 points per group, can be connected to a 1756 ControlLogix chassis. The compatible removable terminal block housings, or RTB, are the 1756-TBNH 20 positions NEMA RTB and the 1756-TBSH 20 position spring clamp RTB. Note that before installation, users should have the compatible RTB on hand and that the 1756 chassis and power supply should be installed and grounded. The nominal input voltage of the 1756-IB16 module is 24 Volts DC, while the voltage category is 12/24 Volt DC sink. Its operating voltage range is 10 to 31.2 Volts DC and the total backplane power is 0.56W. The current draw at 5.1 Volts DC is 100 mA. At 24 Volts, the current draw is 2 mA. This module also has a maximum inrush current of 250 mA peak, which decays to 37% in 22 milliseconds, without activation. Its isolation voltage is 250 Volts continuous. The power dissipation of this module is around is 5.1 Watts at 60 Degrees Celsius and the thermal dissipation is 17.39 BTU/hour. The on-state current of this module ranges from 2.0 mA at 10 Volts DC to 10 mA at 31.2 Volts DC. At an off-state, it has a maximum voltage of 5V and a maximum current of 1.5 mA. The module's input delay time has a maximum of 1 ms hardware delay plus the user-configurable filter time (0, 1, or 2 milliseconds). It has a maximum hardware delay time of 2 milliseconds plus the user-configurable filter time (0, 1, 2, 9, or 18 milliseconds).
The Allen-Bradley 1756-IB16 is a DC sinking input module that operates at a nominal input voltage of 24VDC. This module is used with 24VDCinput signals however, may still be used with AC input voltages provided that an appropriate interposing circuitry or component is installed.
This module supports single-rack, stand-alone controller configuration for smaller and less critical application. It may also be used in larger applications where a higher degree of criticality is involved such a Remote I/O system or a Distributed Control System (DCS).
