Overview
The Schneider Electric TSXDSY16R5 is a discrete relay output module engineered for the Modicon Premium automation platform. This 16-channel module provides reliable dry-contact switching for both AC and DC voltages, making it ideal for controlling motors, solenoids, contactors, lamps, and other electromechanical devices in industrial automation environments.
Key Features
- 16 relay output channels with dry-contact switching and full galvanic isolation from the PLC backplane
- AC/DC versatility: supports AC voltages from 24 to 240V and DC voltages from 12 to 24V
- Fast response time: less than 8 ms for activation and less than 10 ms for deactivation
- High cycle durability: up to 5 million cycles for specific loads
- Built-in protection: AC inductive loads safeguarded with RC circuit MOV (ZNO), while DC inductive loads have protection from a discharge diode on each actuator
- External fusing support: fast-blow fuse per channel or channel group for overload and short-circuit scenarios
