Overview
The Schneider Electric TSXDSY16S5 is a discrete output module engineered for the Modicon Premium PLC platform. This 16-point solid-state TRIAC output module provides precise control over AC loads with rated voltage spanning 48 to 240 VAC, conforming to EN/IEC 61131-2 standards. TRIAC-based protection ensures reliable switching and safeguards against voltage transients common in industrial environments.
Key Features
- 16 discrete solid-state TRIAC outputs for AC load control
- Operating voltage: 48–240 VAC (compliant with EN/IEC 61131-2)
- TRIAC-protected outputs shield against voltage fluctuations and switching transients
- Screw terminal block connections for secure and reliable wiring
- Compact standard DIN-rail mounting form factor
- CE-marked for European regulatory compliance
Technical Specifications
The TSXDSY16S5 delivers 16 independent output channels suitable for controlling AC-powered solenoids, contactors, lighting circuits, and motor starters. Each output is TRIAC-protected to prevent damage from inductive load kickback and switching noise. The module mounts directly to standard DIN rail alongside other Modicon Premium I/O modules and communicates with the controller via the Premium backplane connection.
Typical Applications
- AC solenoid and contactor switching in industrial machinery
- Lighting control and On/Off switching for AC circuits
