I/O Modules | Allen-Bradley 1793-IB2XOB2P

The 1793-IB2XOB2P is a compact 24 VDC digital combination I/O module from the Allen-Bradley FLEX Integra series. Designed for space-constrained control cabinets, this module integrates 2 current-sinking digital inputs and 2 current-sourcing digital outputs with short-circuit protection in a single housing. It features integrated screw-cage style terminal connections, allowing direct field wiring without requiring a separate terminal base unit.

Digital Input and Output Capabilities

The module contains two 24 VDC sinking inputs operating within a voltage range of 10 to 31.2 VDC, featuring configurable input filtering times from 512 µs to 64 ms. On the output side, the 1793-IB2XOB2P provides two 24 VDC sourcing channels rated at up to 0.5 A per channel. Outputs incorporate built-in electronic fusing to safeguard connected actuators and module electronics against overcurrent conditions.

Cabinet Mounting and System Integration

Mountable directly on a standard 35 mm DIN rail, the module connects to an adjacent FLEX I/O network adapter or another FLEX Integra unit via an integrated side bus connector. When combining platforms, FLEX Integra modules must be installed to the right side of standard FLEX I/O modules. Built-in power daisy-chaining terminals simplify 24 VDC distribution across adjacent module units, while front-panel LED indicators display real-time operational and channel status.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the main difference between the 1793-IB2XOB2P and the 1793-IB2XOB2PS? A: The 1793-IB2XOB2P utilizes screw-cage terminal connections for field wiring, whereas the 1793-IB2XOB2PS features spring-clamp terminals.

Q: Does the 1793-IB2XOB2P require a separate FLEX I/O terminal base? A: No, the FLEX Integra module includes built-in terminal blocks and mounts directly on a DIN rail without needing an external terminal base unit like standard FLEX I/O modules.
