Schneider Electric 140DVO85300

Schneider Electric 140DVO85300 DC Discrete Output Module

The Schneider Electric 140DVO85300 is a high-performance discrete output module designed to precisely control automation and industrial systems. Known for its robust design, this module is part of Schneider Electric's Modicon Quantum I/O series, providing dependable output functionality for industrial applications. The 140DVO85300 is backed by a 2-year MRO Electric and Supply warranty, ensuring long-term reliability. With a standard module format, this unit combines flexible voltage handling, multiple outputs, and advanced protective features, making it an ideal solution for various industrial control needs.

Output Channels and Configuration

Equipped with 32 discrete outputs, the 140DVO85300 is structured into four groups of eight outputs each, allowing for well-organized, segmented control over connected devices. The module uses negative logic (sink) for discrete output logic, which suits applications that require robust DC signal handling. It requires two input and two output words for addressing, simplifying communication with other devices in the control system.

Voltage and Current Specifications

The 140DVO85300 is compatible with a DC output voltage range of 10 to 30 V, with an absolute maximum output limit of 50 V for up to one second on a decaying pulse. The voltage drop across each output point is kept low at 0.4 V when operating at 0.5 A, maximizing energy efficiency. The module supports a maximum load current of 0.5 A per point and 4 A per group, with a maximum of 16 A per module. This capacity allows the module to handle high-current loads while ensuring stable performance across all outputs.

Surge and Response Time

The 140DVO85300 is designed to handle sudden surges with a tolerance of up to 2.5 A for 1 ms, ensuring smooth operation even under dynamic load conditions. Response times are fast, at 1 ms for both state transitions (0 to 1 and 1 to 0), making it highly suitable for time-sensitive applications where rapid switching is required.

Advanced Protection Features

Schneider Electric has equipped the 140DVO85300 with multiple protective mechanisms to enhance its longevity and reliability. The module features short-circuit and overvoltage protection on each output, preventing damage from overloads and electrical faults. Each output group is safeguarded by a 5 A fuse, providing an additional layer of security. The unit's load inductance is calculated at 0.5 H divided by the current and switching frequency square, protecting against potential damage from inductive loads.

Local Signaling and Fault Indication

The 140DVO85300 includes local signaling indicators that make monitoring and diagnosing issues easy for operators. A green LED indicates active bus communication, while a red LED alerts users to external faults. Each of the 32 output channels has a green LED to show the status, making monitoring each point's activity simple. Additionally, the module can signal specific faults such as loss of field power, blown fuses, and incorrect output states, helping to identify and address issues quickly.

Power Requirements and Certifications

The 140DVO85300 operates with a bus current requirement of 500 mA, making it a power-efficient option for extensive control systems. It is CE-marked, confirming compliance with European safety and quality standards and ensuring the module is suitable for use in diverse industrial applications.
