The 1756-IB16ISOE is a premium isolated DC input module from the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix family, designed to deliver superior electrical isolation and signal integrity in demanding industrial settings. Each of the 16 input channels is optically isolated from the backplane and from each other, preventing ground loops and cross-talk even in high-interference environments like motor control centers or welding cells. This module is a critical component for safety-instrumented systems (SIS) and high-availability process control where signal accuracy is non-negotiable. The 1756-IB16ISOE supports 24V DC sinking inputs with a wide input voltage range (10-31.2V DC), configurable input filters (0.5 ms to 25 ms), and an input current of 8 mA per point typical. Rated for Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations, it integrates directly into any 1756 chassis and communicates via the ControlLogix backplane at 5V DC (1.2A max). The module’s LED diagnostics provide per-point status and module health, while the included 1756-TBCH or 1756-TBS6H terminal block ensures secure wiring. For applications requiring galvanic isolation between inputs and the control system, the 1756-IB16ISOE is the definitive choice, offering 1500V DC isolation per channel and a typical response time of < 1 ms. Backed by Rockwell Automation’s global support network, this module is a workhorse for discrete manufacturing, oil & gas, and water treatment facilities.
