The Allen-Bradley 1734-FPDK serves as a dedicated distributor module within the POINT I/O family. Its primary role is to manage field power distribution between the backplane and connected I/O modules. This unit accepts both AC and DC input voltages, making it highly adaptable for diverse industrial setups.
Furthermore, the 1734-FPDK supports nominal AC voltages of 120V and 240V, plus nominal DC voltages of 12V and 24V. This wide compatibility allows you to use the same distributor across different control panels without changing hardware. Its robust 10A current capacity handles demanding applications with multiple field devices.
The Allen-Bradley 1734-FPDK offers clear and practical electrical ratings. For DC inputs, the acceptable voltage range spans from 10V to 28.8V DC. AC inputs accept standard 120V or 240V at 47–63 Hz. The maximum input current across all channels reaches 10A, sufficient for powering multiple sensors, actuators, and communication modules.
Additionally, this module features a conformal coating that protects its internal circuitry from moisture, dust, and chemical contaminants. This coating significantly enhances reliability in harsh industrial environments. The terminal base requires a screw torque of 0.6 Nm to ensure secure and vibration-resistant wiring connections.
For backplane communication, the 1734-FPDK draws its operating power from the POINTBus. It seamlessly integrates with other POINT I/O modules, distributing field power while maintaining signal integrity. The module also includes reverse polarity protection to safeguard against wiring mistakes during installation.
The 1734-FPDK performs reliably across a broad temperature spectrum. Its operating range spans from -20°C to 55°C (-4°F to 131°F), suitable for most factory floors and outdoor enclosures. For storage, the module withstands extremes between -40°C and 85°C (-40°F to 185°F), offering peace of mind during transportation and off-season downtime.
Humidity tolerance is equally impressive. The 1734-FPDK operates in non-condensing relative humidity levels from 5% to 95%. This wide range ensures dependable performance in humid environments like food processing plants or outdoor installations. The open-style enclosure requires installation inside a clean, dry cabinet for optimal protection.
Physically, this distributor shares the compact POINT I/O footprint. It mounts onto standard 35 mm DIN rails and weighs approximately 0.25 kg. Its slim design conserves panel space while delivering robust power distribution capabilities.
Installing the 1734-FPDK follows the standard POINT I/O procedure. First, mount a compatible terminal base onto the DIN rail. While the 1734-FPDK works with most POINT I/O bases, always verify compatibility with your specific base model. Next, snap the module firmly into the base until you hear a click.
After mechanical installation, wire the power connections according to the terminal layout. Connect your AC or DC power source to the designated input terminals. Ensure the screw torque does not exceed 0.6 Nm to prevent damage to the terminal base. Finally, route field power to downstream I/O modules through the integrated distribution pathways.

1. What is the primary function of the 1734-FPDK?
The Allen-Bradley 1734-FPDK distributes field power from the main supply to connected POINT I/O modules. It also provides a common connection point for AC and DC input voltages.
2. Can I mix AC and DC inputs on the same module?
No. The 1734-FPDK accepts either AC or DC input at any given time. You must choose one power type per module based on your application requirements.
3. What is the maximum current this distributor can handle?
The 1734-FPDK supports a maximum input current of 10A. This capacity is sufficient for powering multiple I/O modules and field devices in a typical POINT I/O system.
4. Does the conformal coating affect module installation?
Not at all. The conformal coating protects internal components but does not interfere with installation, wiring, or module removal. It simply enhances durability in harsh environments.
5. Is the 1734-FPDK compatible with all POINT I/O terminal bases?
The Allen-Bradley 1734-FPDK works with most standard POINT I/O bases. However, always verify compatibility with your specific base model before installation to ensure proper keying and connections.
