Part number 1734-IB8 is a POINT I/O input module. This module was designed and manufactured by the company known as Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation. It is a part of the Bulletin 1734 product line. This input module has a total of eight (8) inputs, in which all of the inputs are grouped together. These are classified as sinking inputs. This input module has a minimum on-state voltage rated at 10 volts DC, as well as a maximum on-state voltage rated at 28.8 volts DC. The nominal on-state voltage of this input module is 24 volts DC.
The minimum on-state current, however, is rated at 2 milliamperes, while the maximum on-state current is rated at 5 milliamperes. This product has a nominal on-state current rated at 4 milliamperes at 24 volts DC. Part number 1734-IB8 has a maximum off-state voltage of 5 volts DC. Additionally, it has a minimum off-state current of 1.5 milliamperes. The nominal input impedance of the Allen Bradley 1734-IB8 POINT I/O input module is 3.6 kilo ohms, while the maximum input impedance is 4.7 kilo ohms. This input module is equipped with several LED, or light emitting diode, indicators.
These indicators include one (1) green/red network status indicator, one (1) green/red module status indicator, and eight (8) yellow input status indicators. The maximum POINTBus current of this input module is 75 milliamperes at 5 volts DC. This Allen Bradley product has a maximum power dissipation of 1.6 watts at 28.8 volts DC. Additionally, this device has a maximum thermal dissipation of 5.5 BTU/hr at 28.8 volts DC.
