140AVO02000
Schneider Electric
Overview
The Schneider Electric 140AVO02000 is a four-channel analogue output module for the Modicon Quantum platform, driving field devices such as valves, actuators, drives and recorders with analogue signals. It converts PLC output values into field commands, closing the control loop for process equipment.
The module fits a single Quantum slot, draws 700 mA from the backplane 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 140AVO02000 complements the Quantum analogue input modules by providing voltage or current outputs for control duties. Four channels suit smaller control schemes while leaving rack space for additional I/O. When integrating, confirm the load impedance and cable length are within the module's capability and include the 700 mA backplane draw in your power planning.
As with all analogue output, proper shielding, grounding and separation from power wiring reduce noise and improve stability. Output diagnostics should be mapped in the controller so open-loop or out-of-range conditions are detected promptly, protecting both the process and downstream equipment.
Maintenance & Diagnostics
The 140AVO02000 needs little routine maintenance. During commissioning, calibrate each output against a known load or loop calibrator to confirm range and accuracy before the loop is placed in service. Keep the rack within 0–60 °C and 5–95 % non-condensing humidity, and ensure surrounding slots and ventilation are clear because the module is convection-cooled.
De-energise the rack before insertion or removal to protect the backplane. Inspect status LEDs periodically for fault indications and store spares between −40 and 85 °C in original packaging. For safety- or quality-critical loops, recalibrate against a reference at planned intervals and keep configuration records with the panel documentation.
Sourcing & Procurement
The 140AVO02000 is a four-channel Quantum analogue output module; confirm the required voltage or current 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, output ranges and isolation 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.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many output channels does the 140AVO02000 have?
Four analogue output channels for driving valves, actuators and similar field devices.
What backplane current does it draw?
Approximately 700 mA from the Quantum backplane, which should be included in the rack power budget.
What certifications does it hold?
CE, cUL and FM Class 1 Division 2, appropriate for designated hazardous-location use within rated conditions.
What should I plan for in integration?
Budget the 700 mA backplane current, confirm load impedance and cable length, and map output diagnostics in the controller.
How should it be maintained?
Calibrate each output against a reference at commissioning, keep the rack within 0–60 °C, and recalibrate critical loops at planned intervals.
