Allen-Bradley 5069-IB16 24VDC Sinking Input Module

Allen-Bradley 5069-IB16 is a 16-channel, 24V DC sinking input module for the Compact 5000 I/O family. It accepts field signals in the 10–32V DC range and sinks current through each input via a single shared common, forming one group of 16 inputs designed for CompactLogix/Logix 5000 control systems. The module’s footprint is 144.57 mm high, 22 mm wide, and 105.42 mm deep (5.69 x 0.87 x 4.15 in) and it presents a narrow 22 mm slot width, suitable for compact panel layouts. Visual feedback includes 1 green/red module status indicator and 16 yellow/red I/O status indicators to show module health and per-channel activity. Electrical characteristics specify a per-channel input current of about 4–7.4 mA at 10–32V DC, with a maximum input power dissipation around 3.9 W and continuous isolation of up to 250 V between SA power and the input ports, enabling safe operation in mixed-voltage environments. This IB16 module is intended for digital input applications such as sensors, dry-contact switches, and other 24 V DC field devices, where the field devices connect to the input terminals and the module’s SA terminal provides the supply for the sinking inputs. The device is documented as part of the Compact 5000 portfolio, including variants with conformal coating (IB16K) and field-wired options (IB16F), and is compatible with CompactLogix controllers and other supported Logix 5000 platforms.
