140DAO84210C
Schneider Electric
Overview
The 140DAO84210C is an AC discrete output modules in the Modicon Quantum automation platform range from Schneider Electric. It is engineered for industrial automation duties within the Modicon Quantum ecosystem.
Application & Technical Notes
As an ac discrete output modules, the 140DAO84210C is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where Modicon Quantum equipment is installed. It drives actuators, relays, valves and indicators from controller commands, acting as the actuation layer between logic and the machine.
Key published characteristics include a 100/230 V AC rating, an operating temperature range of 32…140 °F (0…60 °C). These values should be confirmed against the current manufacturer datasheet before final selection, as options and suffixes vary by configuration.
Maintenance & Diagnostics
Respect the published operating temperature window (32…140 °F (0…60 °C)); do not exceed it during commissioning or in enclosed panels without airflow. For storage and transit, keep the unit within -40…185 °F (-40…85 °C). Avoid condensation — the rated humidity is 95 % without condensation; store and operate the module in a dry, pollution-degree-appropriate enclosure. Verify field wiring, shielding and grounding at installation; check terminal torque and confirm signal types match the configured range. Periodically inspect for loose terminations, induced noise and channel-level diagnostics reported by the controller. 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 140DAO84210C, 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.
Confirm the module matches your Modicon Quantum rack, the required channel count, signal type and voltage, and the firmware/configuration of the controller. 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 140DAO84210C output module from Schneider Electric is designed to operate within voltage ranges of 100 to 230 V AC. This unit supports a total of 16 outputs, making it suitable for varied applications. It has a weight of 1.98 lbs and operates efficiently at supply frequencies of 47 to 63 Hz.
Description
| Note | The Schneider Electric 140DAO84210C output module is part of the Modicon Quantum series and is built for reliable performance in various systems. It functions on an operating voltage range of 100/230 V AC and is capable of supporting 16 individual outputs. Weighing in at 1.98 lbs, this module is designed for applications where space is at a premium. The unit operates effectively at supply frequencies between 47 and 63 Hz, ensuring compatibility across different installations. One notable feature is its voltage drop of 1.5 V, which is essential for system efficiency. For optimal performance, the module has a minimum load requirement of 5 A, making it suitable for various industrial scenarios. A blown fuse serves as the fault indication, providing immediate feedback on module status. This output module's power dissipation is a function of its load current, calculated as 1.85 plus 1.1 V multiplied by the total current flowing through the module. Local signaling is facilitated by 16 green LEDs, allowing users to easily track input status. With a bus current requirement of 350 mA, the module is designed to work seamlessly in automated environments. It also necessitates a minimum load current of 4 A RMS for each group. Internal protection is established through an RC filter, ensuring the robustness of the electrical components. The 140DAO84210C output module exemplifies precision engineering tailored for rigorous operational demands. |
