Description

The Allen-Bradley 1794-TB3 FLEX I/O Terminal Base Unit is a field wiring base used with the Rockwell Automation FLEX I/O platform. It combines three essential functions within a single component: mechanical support for the I/O module, electrical termination for field wiring, and communication through the integrated FLEXBus backplane.

The terminal base features 16 I/O terminals, 18 common terminals, and 18 power terminals, making it particularly suitable for 3-wire digital input devices such as proximity sensors and photoelectric sensors. Its cage-clamp wiring system allows secure connection of field conductors while simplifying installation and maintenance procedures.

  • Module Replacement Without Rewiring
  • Flexible System Expansion
The 1794-TB3 is a terminal base unit in the Allen Bradley Flex I/O 1794 series. Engineered for DIN rail mounting, it utilizes a cage-clamp for secure connections and supports a FLEXBus voltage of 5V DC with a current capacity of 640 mA.

The Allen Bradley 1794-TB3 serves as a robust terminal base unit in industrial settings. This unit supports a flexible mounting solution via DIN rail installation and incorporates a cage-clamp mechanism for maintaining secure connections. It is designed with terminal screw torque specifications ranging from 0.56 to 0.79 Nm.

The 1794-TB3 Allen-Bradley FLEX I/O Terminal Base Units may still be available for purchase and support from Amikon Limited beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

The top terminal strip (positions 0–15) is dedicated to I/O signal wiring. The middle strip (positions 16–33) provides common (−V) connections, with B-16 serving as the daisy-chain supply in terminal and B-33 as the supply out terminal. The bottom strip (positions 34–51) provides positive voltage (+V) connections, with C-34 as the daisy-chain supply in terminal and C-51 as the supply out terminal. This daisy-chain capability allows multiple terminal bases to be connected in series for efficient power distribution without external terminal blocks.
The 1794-TB3 uses screw-clamp (cage clamp) termination technology, accepting solid or stranded copper conductors from 0.34 to 3.3 mm² (22–12 AWG) with maximum insulation thickness of 1.2 mm. Terminal screw torque is specified at 0.56–0.79 Nm. The open-style IP20 enclosure is designed for installation inside control cabinets.

Prepare Mating Pins: Check that the 16 male Flexbus pins on the adjacent left module or adapter are perfectly straight.
Retract Connector: Ensure the female Flexbus connector on the 1794-TB32 is fully shifted to the left.
Hook onto Rail: Tilt the base slightly and hook its top rear lip onto the 35mm DIN rail.
Lock and Snap: Rotate the module downward until the locking tab snaps tightly onto the bottom of the rail.

Technical notes

Supported FLEXBus characteristics include a voltage rating of 5V DC, along with a maximum current of 640 mA. The V/COM terminals are rated for a supply voltage of 125V AC or DC and can operate effectively at frequencies of 50 or 60 Hertz, accommodating a wide range of applications. The current capacity for these V/COM terminals reaches up to 10 Amps.
