Description

The Allen-Bradley 1756-IH16I is a ControlLogix DC isolated input module designed for industrial automation environments. It features 16 individually isolated input points, allowing flexible field-side signal connections in complex control systems. Operating within a 125V DC voltage category (79 to 138V DC operating voltage range), this module provides reliable signal processing while maintaining high electrical isolation between individual input channels and backplane circuitry. Mounted in a standard ControlLogix chassis, it integrates with ControlLogix controllers using Producer-Consumer technology to share input status efficiently across network architectures.

Features

  • 16 individually isolated digital input channels
  • Wide operating voltage range of 79 to 138V DC
  • Configurable hardware and user-selectable input delay filter times
  • Individual channel-to-channel and channel-to-backplane isolation
  • Software-configurable module keying and change-of-state reporting
  • Real-time timestamping of inputs with +-200 us precision

Applications

  • High-voltage DC field switch and sensor monitoring
  • Industrial power distribution and substation control systems
  • Process automation environments requiring isolated signal groups
  • Safety and fault-tolerant control architectures requiring SIL 2 capability
