PLCs, Power Supplies & Others

This digital output module drives actuators and indicators from Schneider PLC systems. It provides high-side switching for solenoids, relays, and signal lamps. Therefore, this component suits factory automation and machine control applications.

Physical Dimensions and Weight Specifications

The Schneider DAP112 features a compact housing for DIN rail mounting. Its width measures 32 mm for tight cabinet spaces. The total depth reaches 85 mm including the terminal block. Consequently, technicians can install this module in crowded enclosures.

Interface Types and Connection Layout

The Schneider DAP112 provides spring-clamp terminals for field device wiring. A 10-pin backplane connector supplies power and data from the CPU. The front panel carries LED indicators for each output channel status. Hence, operators can verify output activity at a quick glance.

Component Count and Channel Configuration

This digital output module contains one main board with 12 MOSFET output channels. Each channel provides 0.5A continuous current at 24V DC. You will also find optocoupler isolation between the backplane and field side. An onboard microcontroller handles diagnostic reporting and communication.

Energy Storage and Power Consumption

The Schneider DAP112 draws 60 mA from the 5V backplane supply. It requires an external 24V supply for output load power. A small capacitor bank absorbs voltage spikes from inductive loads. This storage protects the MOSFETs during solenoid switching events.

Output Performance and Diagnostic Features

The module updates all 12 outputs within a 0.3 ms cycle time. Each channel includes open-load detection for broken field wiring. Users can read diagnostic status via the PLC bus system. This feature reduces troubleshooting time during maintenance.
