BRD-PAL-AIN16S-KREV-K
Brooks Automation / Techware Systems 16-Point Analog Input Board
About this part
BRD-PAL-AIN16S-KREV-K identifies a legacy Brooks Automation/Techware Systems analog-input I/O board for PAL/Techware process-control installations. It provides 16 analog input points for machine-instrumentation signals. Documented Techware-II Ultra installations used 0–5 VDC or 0–10 VDC analog input circuits; verify the physical board marking, revision, jumper settings, input range, chassis wiring, and software configuration before installation or substitution
Configurations vary. Verify the exact unit before choosing a replacement.

Identifier Markings to Match
Related markings should not be treated as interchangeable aliases unless they appear together on the same physical unit or in an exact manufacturer record.
| Marking | Evidence status | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| BRD-PAL-AIN16S-KREV-K | Exact record identifier | Primary identifier for this part record |
| BRD-PAL-AI16S-K Rev K / BRD-PALAI16S-K | Observed related-unit designation | Shorter Brooks/Techware board designation; exact equivalence remains unverified |
| I16S-1181KF | Observed secondary marking | Associated with the exact identifier by a surplus record; not established as an official exact alias |
Replacement and Setup Boundary
Replacement requires configuration-level verification rather than model-family matching alone.
- Match the complete physical board designation and revision before substitution.
- Verify jumper positions and whether the installation uses 0–5 VDC or 0–10 VDC inputs.
- Confirm chassis wiring, channel allocation, grounding, and controller software configuration.
- Do not substitute PAL AO16S analog-output, DIG32 digital-I/O, or RLY relay boards based on connector appearance alone.
