Schneider Electric 170AAI03000 Modicon Momentum Analog Input Base

The Schneider Electric 170AAI03000 is an analog input base designed for the Modicon Momentum automation platform, making it a highly reliable and robust solution for industrial automation applications. This I/O module is built explicitly for handling differential analog inputs and provides exceptional versatility with its ability to handle various input ranges and types. The device supports up to 8 analog inputs, with a wide input range that includes +/-10 V, +/-5 V, +/-20 mA, 1-5 V, and 4-20 mA, each offering 14 to 15 bits of resolution, ensuring precise measurement of analog signals in different industrial processes.

The analog input module ensures high accuracy across various conditions, with an absolute accuracy error as low as +/- 0.13% full scale at 25°C (77°F) for 1-5 V inputs. Even in more challenging environments with higher temperatures, such as 60°C (140°F), the accuracy remains competitive, with error margins as low as +/- 0.19% full scale for 1-5 V inputs. This reliability is essential in maintaining the efficiency and precision of control systems in harsh industrial environments.

One of the 170AAI03000's significant advantages is its fast conversion time, with a response time of less than 12 ms for all eight channels. This makes it suitable for time-sensitive applications where quick data acquisition is critical. The device also provides robust isolation features, with +/-200 V DC isolation between channels and 500 V AC isolation between channels and ground, ensuring the safety and protection of connected equipment. The common mode rejection ratio of 80 dB or greater further improves its signal integrity, reducing noise and ensuring accurate readings.

Connectivity and Power

The 170AAI03000 module features SUB-D 9 connectors for connecting to the Modbus Plus network and a redundant Modbus Plus network, making it highly adaptable to complex network architectures. Additionally, the device includes two connectors for removable terminal blocks, ensuring ease of installation and maintenance.

This module operates on external DC power, requiring a voltage range of 20.4 to 28.8 V DC with a current draw of less than 382 mA. It also features reverse polarity protection, enhancing durability and longevity in demanding environments. The green LED indicator provides a quick status check to ensure the system is operational, while eight additional LEDs indicate the status of each input channel.

Design and Standards
