The 140DAO84220 AC discrete output module belongs to Schneider Electric's Modicon Quantum automation platform. This standard-format module provides 16 AC output channels organized into four groups of four. Each output handles loads from 20 to 56V AC with a maximum current of 4A per channel. The module supports a total load current of 16A rms across all channels. Furthermore, it includes comprehensive protection features for reliable operation. This output module suits applications like motor starters, solenoid valves, and indicator lamps.
The 140DAO84220 offers 16 discrete AC outputs with sink/source capability. Supply frequency ranges from 47 to 63 Hz for compatibility with standard AC mains. Output voltage spans 20 to 56V AC nominal, with absolute maximum ratings of 100Vrms for one cycle, 63Vrms for 10 seconds, and 111Vrms for 1.3 seconds. Maximum load current reaches 4A rms per output, 4A rms per group, and 16A rms for the entire module. Voltage drop stays below 1.5V at full load for efficient power delivery.
For surge handling, the 140DAO84220 withstands 45A during one cycle per group, 25A during two cycles, and 30A during three cycles. The dv/dt rating of 400V/ms ensures reliable switching of inductive loads. Response time measures less than 0.5 ms for both turn-on and turn-off transitions. These fast switching characteristics suit applications requiring precise timing.
The 140DAO84220 includes robust protection mechanisms for industrial environments. Internal RC filters suppress noise and transients on the output lines. A 5A fuse per group protects against overcurrent events. Fault indication includes blown fuse detection and loss of field power monitoring. Local signalling comprises a green LED for bus communication (Active), a red LED for external faults (F), and 16 green LEDs for individual output status. This visual feedback simplifies troubleshooting and maintenance.
Power dissipation calculates as 1.85W plus (1.1V x total module load current in Amps). This formula helps estimate heat generation within the rack. Bus current requirement is 350 mA from the Quantum backplane. The module uses a standard format for Quantum racks. Package dimensions measure 16.3 cm height, 4.5 cm width, and 31.2 cm length. Net weight is 0.45 kg (0.99 lbs), with packaged weight at 0.64 kg (22.7 oz). Country of origin is France (FR).
Operating temperature ranges from 0 to 60°C (32 to 140°F). Storage temperature spans -40 to 85°C (-40 to 185°F). Relative humidity tolerance reaches 95% without condensation. Operating altitude extends to 5000 meters (16,404 feet). The module meets ESD immunity per IEC 801-2 at 4kV contact and 8kV air. Electromagnetic field immunity complies with IEC 801-3 at 10V/m. Product certifications include UL 508, CSA C22.2 No 142, and FM Class 1 Division 2.
First, power down the Quantum rack before inserting the 140DAO84220. Slide the module into the designated slot until fully seated. Next, connect field wiring to the front connector following the terminal assignments. Wire each output load between the output terminal and the common return. Ensure total current per group stays below 4A and per module below 16A. Use appropriate wire gauges for the expected currents. After wiring, apply power and verify the green Active LED illuminates. Check the red F LED for any fault indications. Finally, configure the output mapping within the Unity Pro or Concept software environment.

1. Q: What types of loads can this module control?
A: The 140DAO84220 controls AC loads such as contactors, solenoids, indicator lamps, and small motors. Its 4A per output rating suits many industrial actuators.
2. Q: How do I know if an output fuse has blown?
A: The module indicates a blown fuse through the red Fault (F) LED. You must replace the entire module to restore that output group.
3. Q: Can I use this module with DC loads?
A: No, the 140DAO84220 is specifically designed for AC loads from 20 to 56V AC. For DC outputs, consider other Quantum modules like the 140DAO85300 series.
4. Q: What is the maximum inrush current the module can handle?
A: The module withstands 45A for one cycle per group, 25A for two cycles, and 30A for three cycles. This capability suits loads with high starting currents.
5. Q: Does this module support hot-swapping?
A: We do not recommend hot-swapping the 140DAO84220. Always power down the rack before removing or inserting the module to prevent damage.
