140AVI03000
Schneider Electric
Overview
The Schneider Electric 140AVI03000 is an eight-channel analogue voltage input module for the Modicon Quantum platform. Using differential inputs, it is optimised to acquire voltage signals from transmitters and instruments while rejecting common-mode noise on long field runs.
The module draws 280 mA from the backplane, fits a single Quantum slot and weighs about 0.3 kg. It operates across 0–60 °C ambient with 5–95 % non-condensing humidity tolerance, and carries CE, cUL and FM Class 1 Division 2 approvals. Channel status is presented through LEDs, following the established Quantum I/O design.
Application & Technical Notes
The 140AVI03000 is the voltage-oriented member of the eight-channel Quantum analogue input family, suited to applications where the field instruments present voltage rather than current signals. Differential inputs provide good common-mode rejection, and the 280 mA backplane draw keeps it easy to accommodate in most rack power budgets.
Integration should follow standard analogue practice: confirm the voltage ranges, budget addressing words, and use shielded, grounded wiring separated from power circuits. Map module diagnostics in the controller so channel faults are detected promptly, and ensure absolute maximum inputs are not exceeded on exposed wiring, with external over-range protection where needed.
Maintenance & Diagnostics
The 140AVI03000 is low-maintenance. During commissioning, verify each of the eight channels and confirm the voltage signal is within its expected range before the loop is trusted. Keep the rack within 0–60 °C and 5–95 % non-condensing humidity, and ensure adjacent slots and ventilation are unobstructed because the module is convection-cooled.
De-energise the rack before insertion or removal to protect the backplane. Store spares between −40 and 85 °C in original packaging, recalibrate quality-critical channels against a known source at planned intervals, and keep a spare on hand for critical systems given the eight-channel concentration.
Sourcing & Procurement
The 140AVI03000 is an eight-channel Quantum analogue voltage input module; confirm the required voltage ranges before ordering. Genuine Schneider Electric modules are recommended for new builds and safety-related loops because they retain the original CE, cUL and FM certifications and warranty.
Compatible alternatives may cost less, but verify channel count, isolation, accuracy and approvals before substitution. For long-lead or discontinued parts, refurbished genuine units from a reputable supplier are generally safer than clones. Buy from authorised distributors where possible and retain serial traceability.
