140CPS42400C
Schneider Electric
Overview
The 140CPS42400C is a Power Supply Module in the Modicon Quantum range from Schneider Electric. It delivers stable control power at 5.1 V DC for Modicon Quantum racks.
Application & Technical Notes
As a power supply module, the 140CPS42400C is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where Modicon Quantum equipment is installed. It conditions and distributes the low-voltage supply that powers the controller, I/O and communication modules on the same rack.
Key published characteristics include a 5.1 V DC rating. These values should be confirmed against the current manufacturer datasheet before final selection, as options and suffixes vary by configuration.
Maintenance & Diagnostics
Ensure adequate ventilation and do not overload the supply beyond its published current budget; consider redundancy for critical racks. Always de-energise the circuit and follow lock-out/tag-out before handling; refer to the official instruction bulletin for service procedures.
Sourcing & Procurement
When sourcing the 140CPS42400C, distinguish three supply tiers: (1) genuine Schneider Electric stock from an authorised distributor; (2) compatible equivalents or surplus/NOS (new-old-stock) from third parties; (3) alternative parts offering equivalent function. Genuine supply carries the full warranty and traceability; compatible or alternative items may be cheaper but should be validated for form, fit, firmware and certification before use in a live system. PLCXpert publishes this page as an independent reference and does not sell the part — verify every claim with the manufacturer or your distributor.
Match the output voltage and current to the Modicon Quantum load and allow headroom for future expansion. Lead times and pricing vary by region and lifecycle status; obtain a current quote from an authorised channel rather than relying on stale listings.

Specifications
The 140CPS42400C from Schneider Electric’s Modicon Quantum series is a power supply module designed for robust industrial applications. Featuring an input voltage range of 48 to 60 V DC, it provides a steady output voltage of 5.1 V DC.
Description
| Note | The Schneider Electric 140CPS42400C power supply module belongs to the Modicon Quantum series. It is engineered to accommodate input voltages between 48 and 60 V DC. The module maintains a consistent output voltage of 5.1 V DC to support various applications. A time-lag fuse rated at 2 A ensures adequate protection against short circuits and other faults. One of the key features of this module is its hold-up time of 13 ms at 48 V, allowing it to maintain output stability during brief interruptions in power. Internal mechanisms are set for both overload and overvoltage protection, enhancing reliability in demanding environments. The module is capable of delivering a redundant output current of up to 8 A, which is essential for applications that require fail-safe operations. When activated, a green LED indicator provides local status signaling, showing that the power is operational. The input current drawn by the module does not exceed 3.8 A, while it can handle an inrush current of 14 A at 40 V during power-up. It also features an alarm output rated at 6 A at 220 V, which can signal abnormal conditions. The power dissipation during operation is registered at 17.2 W, facilitating efficient thermal management. Additionally, the module is marked with the CE certification, confirming compliance with European safety and performance standards. This design ensures that the 140CPS42400C can be integrated seamlessly into industrial automation systems, maintaining robust power supply functions under various load conditions. |
