Allen-Bradley 1734-IM2 POINT I/O 2-Point AC Input Module

3 min read wayne Industry News

The 1734-IM2 is a compact digital AC input module from the Allen-Bradley POINT I/O series. It provides precisely two non-isolated, sink inputs for reliable 220 Volt AC signal detection. This module helps you monitor high-voltage AC devices with exceptional accuracy.

Why Choose the 1734-IM2 for Your System?

This module offers a space-saving solution for your control panel. The 1734-IM2 consumes only 75 milliamps from the POINTBus. It dissipates just 0.48 Watts of power, ensuring minimal heat generation. This makes it perfect for dense panel layouts.

Engineers value this module for its wide operating voltage range. It reliably detects voltages from 159 to 264 Volts AC. The module operates within a frequency range of 47 to 63 Hertz.

Understanding the Electrical Specifications

The module requires a nominal input voltage of 220 Volts AC at 60 Hertz. In the on-state, the input current ranges from 6.2 mA to 10.2 mA. The nominal current sits at 8.5 mA. This ensures consistent signal detection every time.

The off-state maximum voltage is just 43 Volts AC. The off-state current is a low 2.9 mA. This sharp distinction prevents false readings. The nominal input impedance is 22.3 kiloohms.

Product Selection and Compatibility Guide

This module mounts on base units like the 1734-TB or 1734-TOP. You must set the keyswitch to position 8 before installation. This prevents incorrect module placement in your system.

The unit accepts 14 to 22 AWG copper wire. The wire must be rated for 75 degrees Celsius. Ensure you use solid or stranded wire for proper connections.

Environmental Durability and Performance

The 1734-IM2 operates in temperatures from -20 to 55 degrees Celsius. It can survive storage temperatures from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius. This makes it suitable for harsh factory environments.

The module handles non-condensing humidity from 5 to 95 percent. It resists operating vibration of 5 g from 10 to 500 Hertz. The unit withstands operating shock up to 30 g. It survives non-operating shock up to 50 g.

Installation and Wiring Best Practices
