Each relay is designed to handle a broad range of AC and DC voltages, making the module adaptable for machine and process-level output control. It is compatible with CompactLogix 5370 controllers, MicroLogix 1500 controllers, and supported DeviceNet or Ethernet communication adapters for remote I/O expansion. With a replaceable terminal block, clear status labeling, and certified industrial ratings, the module provides dependable switching performance in diverse automation environments. Key Features: Eight Relay Outputs: Provides eight Form A channels for switching AC or DC loads. Dual Output Groups: Two groups of four outputs allow independent voltage categories within the same module. Wide Operating Voltage Range: Supports 5–265 VAC and 5–125 VDC for broad application flexibility. Compact I/O Integration: Works directly with CompactLogix and MicroLogix 1500 systems for local or remote expansion. Consistent Response Time: Offers 10 ms on/off delay for predictable output actuation. Durable Wiring Interface: Accepts 22–14 AWG solid and 22–16 AWG stranded copper conductors. Low Heat Dissipation: Produces only 2.83 W, reducing thermal load in control enclosures. Flexible Mounting: Supports DIN-rail and panel mounting for varied installation layouts. The 1769-OW8 delivers the reliability and precision required for controlled relay switching in industrial automation systems.
