Allen-Bradley 1734-IB8 Point IO Digital Input Module

The Allen-Bradley 1734-IB8 is an 8-channel digital input module for the POINT I/O system that provides eight 24 V DC sinking inputs for discrete sensing devices. It mounts on a POINT I/O bus and draws up to 75 mA from the POINTBus while dissipating about 1.6 W (5.5 BTU/hr); each channel accepts 24 V DC signals with a maximum input current of 5 mA. This module interfaces with Rockwell Automation controllers (such as CompactLogix or ControlLogix) through the POINT I/O network to read the state of field devices like pushbuttons, limit switches, or sensors, enabling reliable digital inputs in automation applications. As part of the 1734 POINT I/O family, the 1734-IB8 delivers eight discrete inputs in a compact 24 V DC, sinking-input configuration for scalable expansion in centralized or distributed control architectures.
