BMXAMO0410: A Detailed Description

Overview:

The BMXAMO0410 is a product under the Modicon X80 range, renowned for its advanced analog output modules. The module is designed to establish a seamless interface between control systems and external devices.

Key Features:

• Electrical Connectivity: The module is equipped with a single 20-way connector.
• Isolation: It features input-output isolation, offering a level of security to prevent possible circuit malfunctions or damage.
• Measurement Precision: The module boasts a measurement error of less than or equal to 0.25% of the full scale between temperatures of 0-60°C, and 0.1% of full scale at 25°C.
• Temperature Drift: It maintains a consistent drift of 45 ppm/°C across various ranges, including +/- 10V, 0...20 mA, and 4...20 mA.
• Channel Features: The common mode between channels is >= 80 dB. In terms of isolation voltage, it offers 1400 V DC between channels and ground, channels and bus, and 750 V DC between channels. The module also can detect open and short circuits across multiple ranges.
• Load Impedance: Depending on the voltage and current type, the ohmic load impedance varies from >= 1000 Ohm to <= 500 Ohm.
• Output Details: It features a high-level output with four analog outputs. These outputs range in type from current (0...20 mA and 4...20 mA) to voltage (+/- 10 V). The analog output resolution at 15 bits plus a sign, ensures precision.
• Power and Conversion: The module draws its power internally via the rack. Its conversion time is <= 1 ms, and it can manage a maximum conversion value across multiple voltage and current ranges.
• Indicators: The BMXAMO0410 employs various LEDs, including a green RUN LED, individual green diagnostic LEDs for each channel, and red LEDs for ERR and I/O.
• Physical Attributes: It weighs about 0.15 kg (or 0.33 lb) and consumes 150 mA power at 3.3 V DC and 84 mA at 24 V DC.

Environmental Specifications:

• Resilience: The module is vibration-resistant up to 3 gn and shock-resistant up to 30 gn.
• Temperature Range: Storage temperatures range from -40 to 85°C, while operational temperatures vary between 0 to 60°C.
• Humidity and Protection: It functions optimally at a relative humidity of 5-95% at 55°C without condensation. It also features an IP20 degree of protection.
• Certifications and Standards: The BMXAMO0410 complies with various standards, including EN/IEC 61131-2 and EN/IEC 61010-2-201. It is also certified by CE, CSA, UL, RCM, Merchant Navy, and EAC.
• Operational Altitude: It can function between 0 to 2000 m and between 2000 to 5000 m with a derating factor.

Sustainability:

This product proudly bears the Green Premium product label, implying its eco-friendly nature. 

Frequently Asked Questions 

1. What is the primary purpose of the BMXAMO0410?

Answer: The BMXAMO0410 is an analog output module under the Modicon X80 range, designed to facilitate a seamless connection between control systems and external devices, translating digital signals into analog signals for further processing or control.

2. Can I use the module in areas with high humidity?

Answer: Yes, the BMXAMO0410 operates optimally at a relative humidity of 5-95% at 55°C without condensation. However, ensure it is within the recommended environmental parameters to ensure its longevity and proper functioning.

3. What do the LED indicators on the module represent?

Answer: The BMXAMO0410 comes with multiple LED indicators. The green RUN LED indicates the module's operational status, individual green diagnostic LEDs for each channel show the health and channel status, and the red ERR and I/O LEDs flag errors and input/output status, respectively.

4. How many analog outputs does the BMXAMO0410 support?

Answer: The module supports four analog outputs that range in type from current (0...20 mA and 4...20 mA) to voltage (+/- 10 V).

5. Is the BMXAMO0410 eco-friendly?

Answer: Yes, the BMXAMO0410 proudly bears the Green Premium product label, indicating its environmentally friendly design and compliance with the Schneider Electric declaration of conformity.

6. Are there any special considerations for the altitude where the module can operate?

Answer: The BMXAMO0410 can operate between 0 to 2000 m without issues. However, if used between altitudes of 2000 to 5000 m, a derating factor will apply to ensure optimal performance.

7. Can the module detect open and short circuits?

Answer: Yes, the BMXAMO0410 can detect both open and short circuits across various voltage and current ranges.
