Schneider TM3AM6G Analog Mixed Module 4AI 2AO

Product Introduction

The TM3AM6G combines analog input and output functions in one Modicon TM3 module. This mixed design saves rack space in compact PLC systems. Engineers choose it when a machine needs both measurement and control signals. The unit offers four analog inputs and two analog outputs. All channels support 0–10 Vdc, ±10 Vdc, 0–20 mA, and 4–20 mA signals. Each channel configures independently through software. The "G" suffix indicates spring-cage terminals instead of screw terminals.

Technical Specifications

Specifically, the TM3AM6G provides 12-bit resolution on both inputs and outputs. Accuracy reaches ±0.1% of full scale at 25 °C. Temperature drift stays within ±1% of full scale across the operating range. Conversion takes 1 ms plus 1 ms per channel plus one controller cycle. Isolation delivers 1500 V AC between analog I/O and supply, plus 500 V AC between analog I/O and internal logic. Diagnostics cover channel status, module status, and bus status. The removable spring-cage terminal block uses 3.81 mm pitch.

Mechanical and Environmental Parameters

Furthermore, the TM3AM6G measures 90 × 23.6 × 70 mm (H×W×D). It weighs 0.11 kg. Operating temperature ranges from 0 to +55 °C. Storage temperature spans −25 to +70 °C. Protection rating is IP20. The module mounts on standard DIN rail (TH35-15 or TH35-7.5). A green PWR LED confirms bus power.

Installation Guide

First, mount the TM3AM6G onto a DIN rail. Next, connect the expansion bus to the controller. Then, wire analog signals using twisted-pair shielded cable. The spring-cage terminals accept solid or stranded wire without screws. After wiring, configure each channel via EcoStruxure Machine Expert software. Finally, verify the PWR LED illuminates green. The module draws 50 mA at 5 V DC and 50 mA at 24 V DC under full load. Use a stable 24 Vdc supply through the TM3 bus.

FAQ

Q1: How many channels does the TM3AM6G have?
The module provides 4 analog inputs and 2 analog outputs. Every channel supports voltage or current signals independently.

Q2: What is the resolution of the TM3AM6G?
It offers 12-bit resolution on both inputs and outputs. This delivers 4,096 data points for accurate measurement and control.

Q3: Which PLC controllers work with the TM3AM6G?
It pairs with Modicon M221, M241, M251, and M262 controllers. These platforms accept TM3 expansion modules directly.

Q4: What is the difference between the TM3AM6G and the TM3AM6?
The TM3AM6G uses spring-cage terminals. The standard TM3AM6 uses screw terminals. Both share identical analog specifications.

Q5: What is the conversion time for the TM3AM6G?
Total conversion requires 1 ms plus 1 ms per channel plus one controller cycle. This applies to both inputs and outputs.
