PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The Allen-Bradley 1771-OQC is an isolated DC output module for the PLC-5 system. This digital output module controls whether connected DC devices are powered on or off. It provides eight DC sink outputs arranged into four isolated groups of two outputs each. The nominal operating voltage is 24 Volts DC with a tolerance of minus 15 to plus 10 percent.
The working isolated voltage ranges between 20.4 and 26.5 Volts DC. Each output and group handles a continuous current load of up to 2.25 Amps. Total output current reaches a maximum rating of 9 Amps per module. Backplane current draw equals 225 mA from the chassis power supply. Internal clamping diodes provide transient surge suppression to protect output transistors from voltage spikes. The unit dissipates up to 19.1 Watts of power and 65.1 BTU per hour thermally.
