PLCs, Power Supplies & Others

The Schneider TSXDEZ12D2 functions as a versatile discrete input module for the Modicon TSX Micro automation platform. This unit accepts signals from both 2-wire and 3-wire proximity sensors, supporting PNP or NPN types. Consequently, it provides flexible and reliable signal acquisition for a wide range of industrial control applications.

Core Technical Specifications

We engineered the Schneider TSXDEZ12D2 to meet IEC 1131-2 Type 1 standards for robust industrial performance. The table below details its essential physical and electronic parameters:

Flexible Sensor Compatibility for Any Application

The TSXDEZ12D2 accepts both positive and negative logic inputs, working seamlessly with PNP or NPN sensors. You can connect 2-wire proximity switches or 3-wire inductive, capacitive, and optical sensors directly. Therefore, this module adapts to the specific sensor types used in your existing machinery.

Precise Thresholds for Reliable Signal Detection

Well-defined voltage and current thresholds guarantee accurate discrimination between on and off states. The module registers a logic 1 for inputs above 11 V DC and a logic 0 for inputs below 5 V DC. As a result, it ignores electrical noise and ensures reliable status updates to the controller.

Programmable Response Times for Application Matching

You can adjust the input response time from 0.1 ms to 7.5 ms for both rising and falling edges. This flexibility allows you to filter out brief transients or capture fast events as needed. Consequently, the Schneider TSXDEZ12D2 optimizes performance for applications ranging from slow process monitoring to high-speed counting.

High Isolation for System Protection

The module provides 1500 V AC isolation between the input field wiring and the internal logic for one second. This high isolation level protects the TSX Micro CPU and backplane from voltage spikes. Hence, you can use it confidently in electrically noisy industrial environments.

Seamless TSX Micro Platform Integration

You can install this module directly into any slot of a Modicon TSX Micro base rack. It automatically communicates with the CPU via the TSX Micro backplane, updating input data in each scan cycle. Therefore, programming the module requires only simple I/O mapping in your control software.

Compact Design with Screw Terminal Wiring

The module features a built-in screw terminal block for direct field wiring, eliminating the need for separate adapters. Its compact size fits neatly within the TSX Micro form factor, conserving panel space. Additionally, clearly labeled terminals simplify installation and troubleshooting for maintenance technicians.
