Allen‑Bradley 1762‑OB16 MicroLogix Digital Output Module 16 Point 24V DC Sourcing

16‑point sourcing (PNP) digital output module for MicroLogix 1100, 1200, and 1400 systems, providing discrete output channels for controlling actuators, solenoids, relays, and indicator lights.

The Allen‑Bradley 1762‑OB16 is a digital output module in the MicroLogix 1762 expansion I/O family. It features 16 sourcing (PNP) outputs with 24V DC operation, allowing direct control of industrial field devices while maintaining optical isolation between field power and the backplane. Compatible with MicroLogix 1100, 1200, and 1400 controllers, this module is ideal for small to medium automation applications requiring high‑density discrete outputs. Used in MicroLogix 1400 automation systems with PLC, I/O, HMI, and industrial network components.
