140QUCMOE
Schneider Electric
Overview
The 140QUCMOE is an Universal Communications Module in the Modicon Quantum range from Schneider Electric. It extends Modicon Quantum connectivity through its onboard communication interface.
Application & Technical Notes
As an universal communications module, the 140QUCMOE is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where Modicon Quantum equipment is installed. It bridges the controller to higher-level networks, HMIs, SCADA and peer devices, carrying configuration, process data and diagnostics.
Key published characteristics include an operating temperature range of 0°C to 60°C, rack-mounted mounting. 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 (0°C to 60°C); do not exceed it during commissioning or in enclosed panels without airflow. For storage and transit, keep the unit within -40°C to 85°C. Avoid condensation — the rated humidity is Tolerance 5% to 95% non-condensing; store and operate the module in a dry, pollution-degree-appropriate enclosure. Confirm network addressing, baud/rate and topology match the rest of the system; keep firmware consistent across the cell. 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 140QUCMOE, 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 protocol, connector and topology to the rest of the Modicon Quantum network and to the peer devices already installed. Lead times and pricing vary by region and lifecycle status; obtain a current quote from an authorised channel rather than relying on stale listings.

Description
| Note | The Schneider Electric 140QUCMOE serves as a universal communications module within the Modicon Quantum series. This module facilitates versatile communication by featuring one RJ45 Ethernet port in addition to a serial port supporting RS-232 and RS-485 standards. This combination enhances connectivity options for varied applications. Operating with a baud rate of up to 115.2 kbps, the device efficiently handles communications over multiple protocols, including Modbus, Modbus Plus, TCP/IP, and ASCII. This enhances its usability across different systems and networking environments. With a weight of 0.45 kg and a mounting type that is rack-mounted, it fits seamlessly into existing setups. The data handling capability is supported by a 2 MB SRAM buffer, enabling effective storage of communication data for processes. The power supply requirement is a straightforward 5 V DC sourced from the rack, ensuring compatibility with standard setups. Environmental tolerances are significant as this module is rated for operation within 0°C to 60°C and can be stored in temperatures as low as -40°C, extending to 85°C. Further, it can withstand humidity levels ranging from 5% to 95% without condensation, which assures reliable performance even in demanding conditions. Compliance with UL, CSA, and CE standards underlines its reliability and safety in various industrial applications. |
