It offers practical advantages, and safety enhancements like the upper and lower retaining screws offer peace of mind for your industrial setup.

We understand that versatility is key in industrial operations. This module offers a wide range of input selections like -10 to +10V DC, 0 to 5V DC, 0 to 10V DC, 4 to 20 mA, 1 to 5V DC, and 0 to 20 mA. You can select from various input data formats such as raw/proportional counts, engineering units, scaled for PID, and percent range. The 1769-IF8 doesn't stop there—it performs automatic self-diagnostics for over- or under-range and alarm processing, making troubleshooting a breeze.

To ensure the optimal power supply, the distance rating of this module is eight modules, limiting its physical installation distance from the power supply. Its compact design belies its capabilities, with dimensions of 118 mm (height) x 87 mm (depth) x 35 mm (width), which extends to 52.5 mm in width for the 1769-IF8 variant. The lightweight design weighs 450 grams (0.99 pounds), facilitating easy installation and handling.

For wire installation, a shielded Belden™ 8761 cable is the recommended choice. The module supports copper-90 degrees Celsius wires of size 22-14 AWG. And remember, gentle handling of wires is key to prevent any potential damage from metal fragments.
