Features & benefits

• High‑level current outputs with 16‑bit resolution deliver precise analog control for valves, actuators and process instruments.
• Configurable 0–20 mA and 4–20 mA ranges with open‑circuit and short‑circuit detection enhance safety and diagnostics.
• Compact single‑slot X80 form factor with 20‑way connector simplifies rack layout and wiring.
• Strong electrical isolation between outputs and system bus/ground (1400 V DC) improves noise immunity in harsh industrial environments.
• Low conversion time (≤ 4 ms) and high MTBF support demanding process applications.

Typical applications

• Process control loops in chemical, water, power and manufacturing plants
• Control of analog actuators, control valves and proportional devices requiring high‑level current sourcing
• Integration in Modicon X80/M340/M580 PAC racks for centralized or distributed analog output needs

Installation and service notes

• Ensure load impedance does not exceed 350 Ω per channel.
• Use recommended wiring practices and shielding to minimize noise; respect IP20 rating by installing within appropriate enclosure.
• Configure fallback mode according to process safety requirements; consult the user guide for fallback options and channel diagnostics.
• Verify firmware compatibility and update following Schneider Electric procedures (current module firmware indicated as SV01.30 or earlier; confirm latest on support portal).
• Refer to product datasheet, user guide and CAD files for pinout, mechanical mounting and full performance tables.
