Schneider TM5SBER2 Remote Receiver Module Modicon TM5

Product Introduction

The Schneider Electric TM5SBER2 serves as a critical component for distributed control architectures within the Modicon TM5 ecosystem. This remote receiver module establishes reliable communication between remote I/O (RIO) stations. Moreover, it distributes power efficiently to the TM5 bus and connected I/O modules. The TM5SBER2 supports a maximum bus length of 2500 meters. Consequently, it enables you to deploy I/O points across large facilities without compromising signal integrity. This gray module integrates seamlessly with Modicon M258 and LMC058 controllers.

Technical Specifications

Communication and Power Distribution

The TM5SBER2 excels in two primary functions. First, it facilitates communication between remote I/O stations across the TM5 bus. Second, it distributes 24V DC power to the bus and all connected I/O modules. The module supports a maximum bus length of 2500 meters. Additionally, the maximum cable distance between devices is 100 meters. This capability ensures flexible system layout and efficient power delivery.

Electrical Characteristics

This remote receiver module consumes only 25 mA at 24V DC from the I/O power supply. Its maximum power dissipation is 2.22 W. This low consumption minimizes heat generation within your control cabinet. Furthermore, the TM5SBER2 requires minimal system resources, allowing you to maximize your I/O count.

Color and Compatibility

The TM5SBER2 features a gray color designation. This color coding indicates compatibility with specific module types. The module works seamlessly with Modicon M258 logic controllers and LMC058 motion controllers. It also integrates with various logic and motion controller configurations. For instance, you can pair it with discrete I/O modules, analog modules, and counter modules.

Local Signalling

The TM5SBER2 provides clear visual status indication through four LEDs. A green LED indicates power supply status. A red LED shows power bus current status. Another red LED displays power supply health. Finally, a yellow LED indicates communication data bus activity. These LEDs enable rapid troubleshooting and system diagnostics. Therefore, you can quickly identify and resolve issues.

Mechanical and Environmental Specifications

Physical Dimensions and Weight

The TM5SBER2 is remarkably compact and lightweight. It weighs only 0.025 kg. This minimal weight simplifies mounting and reduces strain on your DIN rail. Its small footprint maximizes available panel space for other components.

Environmental Operating Conditions

This module operates reliably across a wide temperature range. For horizontal installation without derating, the ambient temperature range is 0°C to 55°C. With derating, it can operate up to 60°C. For vertical installation, the range is 0°C to 50°C. Storage temperature ranges from -25°C to 70°C. Additionally, the TM5SBER2 withstands relative humidity from 5% to 95% without condensation.

IP Rating and Pollution Degree

The module carries an IP20 protection rating according to IEC 61131-2. It also meets IP67 standards for specific applications. The pollution degree is rated at 2 per IEC 60664. Therefore, the TM5SBER2 suits protected indoor environments. It performs reliably in industrial settings with moderate contamination.

Vibration and Shock Resistance

Mechanical robustness characterizes the TM5SBER2. It withstands vibration of 3.5 mm at 5 to 8.4 Hz on a DIN rail. Furthermore, it endures 1 gn vibration at 8.4 to 150 Hz. Shock resistance is rated at 15 gn for 11 ms. These specifications ensure reliable operation in machinery-intensive environments.

Electromagnetic Compatibility

The TM5SBER2 meets rigorous EMC standards. It resists electrostatic discharge of 8 kV in air and 4 kV on contact. Electromagnetic field immunity is rated at 10 V/m from 80 to 2000 MHz. Fast transient immunity is 1 kV for I/O and shielded cables, and 2 kV for power lines. Surge withstand is 0.5 kV differential mode and 1 kV common mode. Consequently, the module operates reliably in electrically noisy environments.

Installation and Wiring Guide

Mechanical Installation

First, mount the TM5SBER2 onto a standard DIN rail. Ensure the rail is securely attached to your cabinet. Next, clip the module into place until the latch engages. For secure mounting, verify that the module sits firmly on the rail. Finally, ensure adequate spacing for ventilation and wiring access.

Network Wiring

The TM5SBER2 requires proper cabling for optimal performance. Use shielded twisted-pair cables for communication wiring. The maximum cable distance between devices is 100 meters. The total bus length can extend to 2500 meters. Ensure proper termination and grounding according to Schneider Electric guidelines.

Power Connections

Connect the 24V DC power supply to the designated terminals on the TM5SBER2. Verify that the power supply meets the required specifications. The module distributes power to subsequent I/O modules on the bus. Consequently, proper power sizing ensures all connected modules receive adequate voltage.

System Configuration

Configure the TM5SBER2 within your programming software. Set the appropriate addressing for the remote I/O station. Verify communication between the controller and the remote receiver. Test all connected I/O modules for proper operation. This systematic approach prevents operational issues.
