Schneider Electric’s 140DAI34000 module is compatible with their automation software suite, including ProWORX 32, Concept, and Unity Pro, which allows for streamlined system configuration, control, and diagnostics. The module’s local signaling capabilities include a green LED indicating active bus communication, a red LED to signal external faults, and 16 green LEDs, each representing the status of individual inputs. This visual status indication simplifies maintenance and troubleshooting by providing immediate input status updates.

Electrical Characteristics

The module operates at 24 V AC input voltage, with a maximum input current of 12 mA at 57 to 63 Hz and 10.7 mA at 47 to 53 Hz. It is designed with a guaranteed State 1 voltage range of 16 to 30 V AC at 57 to 63 Hz and 18 to 30 V AC at 47 to 53 Hz, ensuring reliable input detection. The guaranteed State 0 voltage range remains between 0 to 6 V at higher frequencies and 0 to 5 V at lower frequencies.

The 140DAI34000 offers a capacitive input impedance of 2600 Ohms at 57 to 63 Hz and 3100 Ohms at 47 to 53 Hz. The module is built to handle leakage currents up to 1.9 mA. It can continuously tolerate an absolute maximum input of 30 V. It can withstand short-duration overvoltage conditions of up to 32 V for 10 seconds and 50 V for one cycle, ensuring operational safety and durability.

Enhanced Isolation and Response Time

Designed to maintain electrical isolation between channels and between channels and the bus, the 140DAI34000 module provides an isolation rating of 1780 Vrms for one minute. This robust isolation helps protect the module and connected systems from electrical faults, reducing the risk of downtime or component damage.

The module offers a rapid response time of 4.9 to 0.75 milliseconds per line cycle for Off-On transitions and 7.3 to 12.3 milliseconds for On-Off transitions. This fast response enables precise data input processing, essential for real-time monitoring and control applications.

Warranty and Free Shipping

This Schneider Electric module comes with a two-year warranty provided by MRO Electric and Supply, protecting customers against manufacturing defects. Additionally, free shipping is available, making this module a convenient and cost-effective choice for upgrading or expanding automation systems.
