Product Introduction
The BMXAMO0802 adds eight analog output channels to the Modicon X80 shared I/O platform. Schneider Electric designed it for M340 and M580 controllers. System integrators use this module to control valves, dampers, and drives in process plants. Additionally, group-to-group isolation reduces noise coupling between output groups. This design keeps signals stable in electrically noisy environments.
Technical Specifications
The BMXAMO0802 provides eight output channels in one compact unit. Each channel supports voltage or current mode. Specifically, the ranges stay configurable to match field device requirements. Therefore, one module covers mixed analog loops without extra cards.
Resolution reaches 12 bits on every channel. Accuracy stays within ≤ 0.25% full scale. Furthermore, group-to-group isolation separates output groups from each other. A module status LED gives clear diagnostic feedback. The unit connects through a 40-pin terminal block for dense wiring.
Electrical Parameters
The backplane supplies 24V DC to the BMXAMO0802. Power consumption reaches 1.8 W. Bus current draw equals 74 mA at 24V DC. In addition, the low current draw allows dense rack configurations. This efficiency helps engineers build compact control cabinets.
Mechanical and Environmental Data
Dimensions measure 100 × 28 × 93 mm (H×W×D). Weight equals 0.17 kg. The housing carries an IP20 protection rating. Operating temperature ranges from 0°C to +60°C. Storage temperature spans -25°C to +70°C. Relative humidity stays between 5% and 95% without condensation.
Installation Guide
First, switch off the rack power before mounting. Next, align the BMXAMO0802 with the X80 backplane connector. Push the module inward until it locks into place. Then, wire the 40-pin terminal block according to your signal plan.
For voltage output, connect the load between the V and COM terminals. For current output, place the load in series with the I and COM terminals. Meanwhile, keep analog cables separated from motor and relay wiring. Finally, restore power and confirm the status LED shows normal operation.
