The TM2DRA16RT discrete output module by Schneider Electric is part of the Modicon M238 series and comprises 16 relay outputs. This module is engineered for applications requiring normally open (NO) output functionality. Each output channel can sustain a rated current of up to 2 Amps, while the common output can handle a maximum current of 8 Amps. This makes the unit effective for managing various loads in industrial control systems.
The module requires a supply voltage of 24 Volts DC to function efficiently. It consumes relatively low current, drawing 30 milliamperes when powered by 5 Volts DC and 40 milliamperes at 24 Volts DC. The minimum switching current stands at 0.1 milliamperes at 0.1 Volts DC, which allows for sensitive applications. With a contact resistance of just 45 milliohms, this module supports efficient signal transmission with minimal loss.
A removable terminal block provides a convenient connection method for integration, facilitating uncomplicated wiring into existing control panels. The TM2DRA16RT module is designed to be mounted on a DIN rail, ensuring a straightforward and secure installation process. Its weight is approximately 0.33 pounds (0.15 kilograms), making it lightweight and easy to handle. A display block serves as local signaling, allowing operators to monitor the operational status of the outputs effectively.
