The Allen-Bradley 1762-OW16 is a 16-point relay output expansion module manufactured by Rockwell Automation for MicroLogix 1100, 1200, and 1400 programmable logic controllers. The module provides sixteen normally open relay outputs capable of switching both AC and DC loads, making it suitable for controlling motors, contactors, solenoids, alarms, indicator lamps, and other industrial field devices used in automation and process control systems.
The module features two isolated output groups with eight channels per group and supports operating voltages from 5…265V AC and 5…125V DC. Its relay-based architecture provides flexible load compatibility and electrical isolation, making it ideal for industrial machine control, manufacturing systems, material handling equipment, and process automation applications requiring reliable switching of mixed AC and DC loads.
