Product Description

Description

The Allen-Bradley 1794-OA8I is an 8-point isolated AC digital output module for the FLEX I/O system. It provides eight individually isolated output channels for switching 85 to 132 VAC field loads.

Each output is rated for up to 0.5 A at 55 degC. The module supports a maximum combined output current of 4 A when all eight channels operate at 0.5 A.

Channel-to-channel isolation separates the individual AC output circuits. The field circuits are also isolated from the FLEX I/O backplane.

The 1794-OA8I is designed for distributed digital output applications requiring independently isolated 120 VAC load control within a FLEX I/O station.

Features

  • Eight isolated AC digital output channels

  • 85 to 132 VAC output voltage range

  • 120 VAC nominal output type

  • 0.5 A maximum per output at 55 degC

  • 4 A maximum output current per module

  • Individual channel-to-channel isolation

  • Field-to-backplane isolation

  • FLEX I/O distributed I/O architecture

  • Removal and Insertion Under Power capability

  • Operating temperature range from 0 to 55 degC

  • Individual field wiring through the FLEX I/O terminal base system

Applications

  • AC solenoid valve control

  • Contactor and relay coil switching

  • Machine actuator control

  • Distributed 120 VAC digital output stations

  • Isolated field-load switching

  • FLEX I/O expansion in industrial control systems

Each output channel is electrically isolated. Separate AC sources are required for individual channels where channel-to-channel isolation must be maintained.

Field wiring should follow the applicable Rockwell Automation 1794-OA8I wiring diagram and terminal-base documentation.

Installation & Commissioning

  • Verify the catalog number and 85 to 132 VAC field-load requirement before installation.

  • Confirm the selected FLEX I/O terminal base and wiring arrangement.

  • Verify load current remains within the output and module current limits.

  • Preserve channel isolation where the application requires isolated AC circuits.

  • Check field wiring before applying AC power to the outputs.

  • Verify each output independently during commissioning.

  • Confirm PLC output commands correspond with the intended field loads.
