Description
Product Name: 1790-0W8X Allen Braley Central control module
Product details:
The Allen-Bradley 1790-T8X8 (part of the CompactBlock™ LDX I/O series) is a versatile, low-profile distributed I/O solution designed for industrial automation.
Note: The 1790-OW8X specifically refers to an 8-point AC/DC Relay Output module within this family.
1. Product Description
The 1790-OW8X is a CompactBlock LDX I/O module featuring 8 Relay Outputs. It is designed to bridge the gap between expensive, high-density I/O and simple, stand-alone blocks. It uses the DeviceNet™ network protocol to communicate with a master controller (like a ControlLogix or CompactLogix), providing a cost-effective way to add points of control in decentralized locations.

| Current Rating | 2.0A per point (resistive) |
| Power Consumption | 24V DC Network Power |
| Isolation Voltage | Tested at 1250V AC |
| Mounting | DIN Rail or Panel Mount |
| Dimensions | Approx. 142mm x 45mm x 52mm |
3. Product Advantages
-
Space-Saving Design: The “LDX” stands for Low Profile. Its slim form factor allows it to fit into shallow electrical boxes or tight spaces on a machine.
-
Cost-Efficiency: Ideal for applications requiring only a small number of I/O points without the overhead of a full chassis.
-
Flexible Switching: Since it uses relay outputs, it can switch both AC and DC loads, making it compatible with various field devices like solenoid valves, motor starters, and indicators.
-
Removable Terminals: Features removable screw-terminal blocks, which simplifies wiring and reduces downtime during maintenance.
4. Important Considerations & Precautions
-
Relay Lifespan: Unlike solid-state outputs, mechanical relays have a finite life cycle (number of operations). Avoid high-frequency switching to prevent premature failure.
-
Surge Protection: When switching inductive loads (like coils or motors), use external surge suppressors (snubbers) to protect the relay contacts from arcing.
-
Network Power: The module draws power directly from the DeviceNet network. Ensure your power supply can handle the cumulative current draw of all modules on the trunk line.
-
Environment: Ensure the ambient temperature stays within the operating range (0°C to 55°C) and avoid environments with excessive vibration.
5. Typical Applications
-
Conveyor Systems: Controlling small motors or pneumatic diverters along a long assembly line.
-
Material Handling: Managing sensors and actuators in localized sorting stations.
-
Packaging Machinery: Interfacing with intermittent relays, lamps, and small solenoids.
-
Remote Monitoring: Providing a small cluster of control points in a remote pump station or HVAC unit.
