Schneider TSXDSY16T3 Discrete Output Module

Schneider TSXDSY16T3 Discrete Output Module for Modicon Premium

Product Introduction

The TSXDSY16T3 operates as a discrete output module inside the Modicon Premium automation platform. This Schneider Electric unit drives field actuators such as relays, valves, and indicator lamps. Specifically, it delivers 16 transistor outputs arranged in two groups of eight channels. The module switches 24 V DC loads with NPN sink logic for negative switching. Therefore, system builders use it in high-speed machine and process control cabinets.

Technical Specifications

The TSXDSY16T3 provides 16 DC output channels using transistor technology. Each channel handles up to 0.5 A, which covers most small solenoid and relay loads. Additionally, the output voltage targets 24 V DC for standard industrial field devices. The module occupies only 1 slot on the Modicon Premium backplane. This single-slot design keeps rack space free for additional I/O or communication cards.

Protection and Response Behaviour

Electronic overload and short-circuit protection guard each output against field faults. Moreover, the module trips automatically and recovers on reactivation once the fault clears. Response time reaches 1.2 ms, supporting fast switching sequences in machine cycles. Channel-to-bus isolation holds 1500 V AC dielectric strength, blocking transients from the backplane. Besides, isolation resistance exceeds 10 MΩ at 500 V for dependable separation.

Electrical Parameters

Field supply for the TSXDSY16T3 runs at 24 V DC, while the backplane provides 5 V DC. Bus current consumption equals 80 mA at 5 V DC, which stays low for a 16-point card. Power dissipation follows 2.4 W plus 0.85 W per output, depending on load current. Consequently, cabinet designers can plan heat removal with confidence. First, verify that your 24 V DC supply can feed the total connected load.

Physical and Environmental Data

The module measures 140 × 35 × 80 mm in height, width, and depth. Besides, its weight is only 0.15 kg, which simplifies handling and spare-part storage. The TSXDSY16T3 carries an IP20 protection rating for indoor cabinet mounting. Meanwhile, it follows the same Modicon Premium environmental family standards.

Installation Guide

First, confirm that the Modicon Premium rack has one free slot for this TSXDSY16T3 module. Next, slide the unit into the backplane connector until it seats completely. After that, tighten the retaining screws to secure the module body. Then, wire the 24 V DC field loads to the screw terminals with correct NPN sink polarity. Finally, assign the output addresses in Unity Pro and test each group before startup.
