Schneider TSXAEY800 Modicon Quantum Analog Input Module

Product Overview

The Schneider Electric TSXAEY800 functions as a versatile high-level analog input module for the Modicon Premium automation platform. This module provides 8 analog input channels sharing a common point, specifically designed to interface with various industrial sensors and transmitters. It supports a wide array of signal types, including standard 4-20mA current loops and ±10V voltage ranges. By utilizing a high-precision 12-bit A/D conversion process, the TSXAEY800 ensures accurate data representation for critical process monitoring. We offer this product as 100% Brand New and original factory sealed.

Technical Specifications

The TSXAEY800 offers flexible configuration options to match specific industrial signal requirements.

Engineering Advantages

• Multi-Range Signal Compatibility: The TSXAEY800 eliminates the need for multiple specialized modules. It accepts four different voltage ranges and two standard current ranges, allowing engineers to consolidate various sensor types into a single Modicon Premium rack slot.

• Optimized Scan Performance: For time-sensitive applications, the module supports a "Fast Read Cycle." By limiting the scan to only the active channels used, the system achieves a processing speed of 3 ms per channel plus a 3 ms overhead, significantly improving control loop responsiveness.

• Robust Electrical Isolation: With 1000 Vrms isolation between channels and the backplane bus, the module protects the PLC processor from field-side electrical surges and transients. This prevents localized electrical faults from causing catastrophic system-wide failures.

• Integrated Circuit Protection: The inputs withstand overvoltage conditions up to ±30 V and overcurrent up to ±30 mA. These safeguards protect the module's 250-Ohm internal resistors from accidental wiring errors or sensor malfunctions during commissioning.

• Certified for Harsh Environments: Carrying extensive maritime certifications (ABS, BV, DNV, GL, LR) and treated with TC (Protective treatment), this module operates reliably on offshore platforms and in high-humidity industrial facilities.

FAQs

• Q: How do I connect field sensors to the TSXAEY800?

• A: The module uses a standard SUB-D 25-way connector. We recommend using a Schneider Electric pre-wired cable (such as the TSXCDP series) or a Telefast sub-base to simplify the wiring from the high-density SUB-D port to standard field-side screw terminals.

• Q: Does this module support differential inputs?

• A: No. The TSXAEY800 features 8 inputs with a "Common Point." This means all 8 sensors share a single reference ground. If your application requires independent isolation between each channel to prevent ground loops, consider a module with isolated inputs.

• Q: What is the maximum altitude for deployment?

• A: The TSXAEY800 operates at full specification up to 2000 meters. For installations above this altitude, please consult technical support regarding air density derating for thermal management.

• Q: How does temperature affect the measurement accuracy?

• A: Accuracy remains high at 0.15%–0.25% at room temperature (25°C). Across the full operating range (0–60°C), the maximum error increases slightly to approximately 0.41% for current signals to account for thermal drift in the internal conversion resistors.
