Schneider STBACO0120 1-Channel Analog Output Module
Product Introduction
The STBACO0120 belongs to the Advantys STB distributed I/O platform by Schneider Electric. This standard analog output module provides one channel for 4-20 mA current signals. Engineers select it for process control tasks where a single high-resolution output channel is sufficient. Meanwhile, the module supports hot swapping, so you can replace it without stopping the whole system. Its compact 13.9 mm I/O base saves valuable cabinet space.
Technical Specifications
The STBACO0120 offers one output channel with a 4-20 mA current range. Resolution reaches 15 bits plus sign, which gives exceptionally smooth and accurate signal output. The module pairs well with control valves, positioners, and variable frequency drives. Furthermore, short circuit protection is built in to guard against wiring faults.
Isolation and Electrical Data
Isolation between field and bus reaches 1500V DC. This rating protects sensitive control circuits from electrical noise. The module draws power through a 24V DC PDM, specifically the STBPDT3100. Additionally, the I/O base is the STBXBA1000 with a 13.9 mm width. This narrow design allows dense mounting in control panels.
Hot Swapping Behavior
Hot swapping lets you remove and replace the module while the system runs. Therefore, maintenance downtime drops significantly, and production continuity improves. Besides, the single-channel design keeps cabinet footprint minimal for space-constrained installations.
Mechanical and Environmental Parameters
The module carries an IP20 protection rating, which suits clean cabinet installations. Operating and storage temperature data are not available in the current documentation. Besides, the 13.9 mm base width keeps panel space usage low. Field wiring connects through the STBXBA1000 base, and the PDM feeds power separately.
Installation Guide
First, mount the STBXBA1000 base onto a standard DIN rail. Next, snap the STBACO0120 module onto the base until it locks firmly. Then connect the 24V DC PDM, such as the STBPDT3100, to supply field power. After that, wire your 4-20 mA load to the output terminal while observing polarity. Finally, configure the output parameters through your Advantys STB network configuration tool. Always verify wiring polarity for proper 4-20 mA operation.
