Product Summary
The 1762-OB8 provides eight solid-state digital outputs for MicroLogix 1200 systems. This module controls 24V DC loads with a 0.5A rating per point. It delivers reliable switching with a fast 0.1ms ON-state delay. Engineers use this expansion to scale their control systems easily. The 1762-OB8 draws only 115 mA from the 5V backplane. Its compact design saves valuable panel space effectively.

Matching Your System Requirements
This module works exclusively with MicroLogix 1200 controllers. You must verify your existing system compatibility before purchase. The 1762-OB8 adds eight sourcing outputs to your control network. Each output handles a maximum current load of 0.5A individually. The total module aggregate current reaches 4A across all points. This capacity suits small valve banks and indicator arrays.
Voltage and Power Specifications
The module operates within a 20.4 to 26.4 Volts DC range. This tolerance ensures stable performance on typical 24V industrial supplies. Power dissipation remains low at only 1.6 Watts. This efficiency reduces heat buildup inside your control cabinet. The backplane draws a minimal 115 mA at 5 Volts DC. You can place this module up to six lengths from the power supply.
Environmental Durability for Factory Floors
The 1762-OB8 functions reliably from 0 to 55 degrees Celsius. It withstands non-condensing humidity levels between 5 and 95 percent. The module resists severe shock up to 30G and vibration at 5G. This ruggedness ensures long service life in harsh industrial settings. Storage temperature ranges from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius. These ratings protect the unit during transport and downtime.
Output Performance and Signal Integrity
Each output delivers a maximum ON-state voltage drop of 1.0 Volts DC. The module achieves an ON-state delay of only 0.1 milliseconds. Its OFF-state delay reaches a maximum of 1.0 milliseconds. Leakage current stays below 1.0 mA in both states. This precision prevents false triggering of sensitive downstream equipment. The module handles a 2A surge for 10ms every 2 seconds.
Isolation and Certification Standards
Group-to-backplane isolation tests at 1200 Volts AC or 1697 Volts DC. This high isolation protects your controller from output circuit faults. The 1762-OB8 holds UL, c-UL, and CE certifications. These approvals simplify machine compliance for global markets. You can trust this module for safety-critical applications.
