The Allen Bradley 1769-IF8 is an analog input module designed for use with the CompactLogix line of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) manufactured by Allen Bradley, a brand under Rockwell Automation. The 1769-IF8 module provides 8 analog input channels.
Here are some key features of the Allen Bradley 1769-IF8 analog input module:
Analog Inputs: The module has 8 input channels that can accept analog signals from various sensors and devices. These inputs can be used to measure voltage, current, temperature, pressure, and other analog signals.
Input Types: The 1769-IF8 module supports a wide range of input signal types, including voltage, current, thermocouples, and RTDs (Resistance Temperature Detectors). It provides flexibility in connecting different types of analog sensors and devices.
Resolution and Accuracy: The module offers high-resolution analog-to-digital conversion, allowing for precise measurement of analog signals. The resolution and accuracy of the measurements depend on the specific input type and configuration.
Configuration: The module can be easily configured using Rockwell Automation's programming software, such as RSLogix 5000 or Studio 5000. The software allows users to set up the module's parameters, such as input type, scaling, addressing, and diagnostic settings.
Voltage Range: The 1769-IF8 module supports a wide range of input voltage levels, typically -10V to +10V or 0-20 mA. This allows for compatibility with different sensor and device output ranges.
Compatibility: The 1769-IF8 module is designed specifically for use with the Allen Bradley CompactLogix PLCs. It can be installed in the local I/O chassis of the CompactLogix system or in a remote I/O chassis using appropriate communication modules.
