TM5SDO4R Schneider Electric Discrete Output Module
Product Introduction
The TM5SDO4R belongs to the Modicon TM5 range. It offers four discrete relay outputs. Each output supports 30V DC or 230V AC (red text) at 5A (red text). You can use it with PacDrive LMC Pro, LMC Eco, and LMC Pro 2 controllers. This module has four normally open (NO) contacts. It also provides reverse polarity protection.
Technical Specifications
TM5SDO4R includes four relay outputs. Each channel handles up to 5A continuously. The total current per common output is 10A maximum (red text). Output voltage limits are 24–36V DC and 184–276V AC.
Response time is ≤10ms from state 0 to 1 and from state 1 to 0. There is no insulation between channels. However, 500Vrms AC insulation (red text) exists between the channel and the bus.
Mechanical durability reaches 20 million cycles. Electrical durability is 500,000 cycles at 5A. Current consumption equals 160mA at 5V DC bus (red text). Maximum power dissipation is 2.3W.
Additionally, the module lacks short-circuit and overload protection. So you must add external fuses or breakers. The product carries CE, CSA, cULus, GOST-R, and C-Tick marks.
Mechanical and Environmental Parameters
The TM5SDO4R operates from -10°C to 55°C without derating when mounted horizontally. With derating, it works up to 60°C. For vertical installation, the range is -10°C to 50°C. Storage temperature spans -40°C to 70°C.
Relative humidity tolerance is 5% to 95% without condensation. IP20 protection complies with IEC 61131-2. Pollution degree is 2 per IEC 60664.
Vibration resistance: 3.5mm at 5–8.4Hz on DIN rail, then 1gn at 8.4–150Hz. Shock resistance is 15gn for 11ms. Operating altitude goes up to 2000m. Storage altitude reaches 3000m.
EMC and Standards
The TM5SDO4R meets several immunity standards. For example, electrostatic discharge immunity includes 4kV contact and 8kV air. Electromagnetic field susceptibility is 10V/m from 80–2000MHz.
Electrical fast transient/burst immunity: 1kV for I/O, 1kV for shielded cable, and 2kV for power lines. Surge immunity includes 0.5kV differential mode and 1kV common mode. Conducted RF disturbances also comply with IEC 61000-4-6. Finally, conducted and radiated emissions follow CISPR 11.
Installation Guide
First, mount the TM5SDO4R on a DIN rail inside a control panel. Ensure the ambient temperature stays within limits. Use proper wire gauges for 5A loads.
Next, connect the common and output wires carefully. Because there is no channel-to-channel isolation, avoid mixing different voltage types on adjacent outputs. Always add external protection against short circuits and overloads.
Finally, attach the bus connector to the TM5 bus. The module draws 160mA from the 5V bus. Verify that your power supply can handle all connected modules.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Can I use the TM5SDO4R with 24V DC loads?
Yes, the TM5SDO4R supports 24–36V DC. It works perfectly for 24V DC industrial relays and small solenoids.
2. Does this module provide short-circuit protection?
No, it has no short-circuit or overload protection. Therefore, you must install external fuses or circuit breakers for each output.
3. How many changeover contacts does the TM5SDO4R have?
The TM5SDO4R offers 4 normally open (NO) contacts. It does not include normally closed (NC) or changeover contacts.
4. What is the maximum switching frequency for this relay module?
Mechanical life is 20 million cycles. However, electrical life is 500,000 cycles at 5A resistive load. For inductive loads, derating is recommended.
5. Can I mount the TM5SDO4R vertically?
Yes. For vertical installation, the operating temperature range is -10°C to 50°C without derating. Always check your panel’s cooling conditions.
