The Allen-Bradley 1762-OX6I is a robust MicroLogix 1200 I/O expansion module. It provides six individually isolated Form C relay outputs. This module switches both AC and DC loads with ease.
Product Procurement & Buyer Guide
This section helps engineers and procurement managers align. The 1762-OX6I solves critical isolation pain points. It prevents ground loops in mixed voltage systems.
Each of the six outputs is individually isolated. This feature allows you to connect different devices. You can control a 24VDC solenoid and a 120VAC motor. The module handles both on separate isolated groups.
The module uses a Type C relay output form. Each channel provides one Normally Open contact. It also provides one Normally Closed contact. This flexibility simplifies load control. You can switch a load on or off directly.
The output voltage range is very wide. It operates from 5-125VDC and 5-265VAC. This universal rating simplifies inventory management. One module supports many different line voltages.
Compatibility is straightforward for system architects. The 1762-OX6I works with MicroLogix 1100, 1200, and 1400 controllers. You can install up to seven modules with a MicroLogix 1400. This expandability meets medium scale automation needs.
The bus current draw is consistent at 110 mA on both 5VDC and 24VDC rails. This steady load helps you plan your power supply budget. You can reliably calculate system power requirements.
Step-by-Step User & Installation Guide
Proper installation ensures long service life. The 1762-OX6I requires a 2-inch clearance on all sides. This gap promotes adequate airflow and prevents overheating.
First, analyze the operating environment for vibration. For normal conditions, mount the module on a DIN rail. Use end anchors to secure the module in place.
For extreme vibration environments, use a different method. Install the module using two Panhead screws. This screw mounting provides superior mechanical stability.
After mounting, connect the module to the controller. The 1762-OX6I uses a flat ribbon cable with a female bus connector. This connection links the I/O module to the MicroLogix system.
Each isolated group requires careful wiring. Remember that each Form C relay has three terminals. The common, normally open, and normally closed terminals are available. Wire your load according to your application needs.
The module operates within specified temperature limits. It works from 0 to 55 degrees Celsius. The maximum operating altitude is 2000 meters . Always verify the installation location meets these ranges.
Signal timing is critical for sequence control. The module has a 10 ms maximum delay for the ON transition. The OFF transition has a 20 ms maximum delay. Account for these timing values in your logic.
Each output channel supports a continuous current of 7 Amps . This rating is per point for resistive loads. Never exceed this current to avoid relay damage.
