Field Wiring Connections

Grounding the Module

This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded mounting surface such
as a metal panel. Additional grounding connections from the module’s mounting
tabs or DIN rail (if used), are not required unless the mounting surface cannot be
grounded. Refer to Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines,
Allen-Bradley publication 1770-4.1, for additional information.

to the 1769-OB16 is shown below.

ATTENTION

!

Miswiring of the module to an AC power source or
applying reverse polarity will damage the module.

Be careful when stripping wires. Wire fragments that fall
into a module could cause damage at power up. Once
wiring is complete, ensure the module is free of all metal
fragments.

(1)

Recommended Surge Suppression - Use a 1N4004 diode reverse-wired across the load for transistor outputs switching 24V
dc inductive loads. For additional details, refer to Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, Allen-Bradley
publication 1770-4.1.

Sourcing Output - Source describes the current flow between the I/O module and the field device. Sourcing output circuits
supply (source) current to sinking field devices. Field devices connected to the negative side (DC Common) of the field
power supply are sinking field devices. Field devices connected to the positive side (+V) of the field supply are sourcing field
devices.

Europe:

DC sinking input and sourcing output module circuits are the commonly used options.
