Features:
- Flex I/O Thermocouple and millivolt input module
- Its acceptable voltage range is ±76.5mV, and its resolution is 16 bits
- This module has eight channels and is compatible with J, K, E, R, N, S, B, C, T, and L type thermocouple sensors
The 1794-IT8 is a Flex I/O analog input module. Specifically, it is a thermocouple and millivolt input module. This module features eight (8) analog input channels for direct connection to thermocouple sensors of types J, K, E, R, N, S, B, C, T, and L, with a millivolt range of +/-76.5 mV.
Before inserting the 1794-IT8 module into the terminal block base, the user should rotate the key switch on the base to position 3, as this position is crucial for the safe installation and operation of the thermocouple/millivolt module.
The 1794-IT8 Allen Bradley Thermocouple Input Module may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

The Allen-Bradley 1794-IT8 FLEX I/O thermocouple module communicates with the PLC via a block transfer option. Block transfer programming relies on moving input signal data words between a designated area in the thermocouple module's memory and the PLC datasheet. Block transfer programming also supports transferring configuration words from the PLC datasheet to the thermocouple module. The Allen-Bradley 1794-IT8 module comes with two cold junction compensators designed for installation in designated locations within the terminal block base unit. The module accepts both grounded and ungrounded thermocouples.
Industrial Automation: Used in factories to accurately monitor the temperature of multiple areas using various types of thermocouples.
Process Control: Ideal for managing temperature-sensitive operations such as chemical, pharmaceutical, or food processing, which require reliable data acquisition.
Data Logging: Provided for technicians to collect and analyze thermal data for research or long-term industrial monitoring.
Millivolt Monitoring: Can be connected to sensors and instruments that generate non-standard millivolt signals (±76.5 mV range).
