Allen Bradley 1769-OA16 CompactLogix 16-Pt 120/240V AC Output Module

Product Description

The 1769-OA16 is a high-density digital AC output module belonging to the Allen Bradley Compact I/O family. Designed for use with CompactLogix controllers or MicroLogix 1500 systems, it provides 16 solid-state outputs capable of switching voltages between 85V and 264V AC. This module is ideal for interfacing with AC-powered actuators, motor starters, solenoid valves, and indicators in industrial environments.

The 1769-OA16 features a robust electrical design with two isolated groups of eight outputs, allowing for multiple voltage sources or circuit separation within a single module. Its solid-state Triac outputs ensure a long service life compared to mechanical relays, particularly in high-cycle applications.
