TSXASZ401
Schneider Electric
Overview
The TSXASZ401 is an Analog output module in the Modicon TSX Micro automation platform range from Schneider Electric. It provides 4 channels and is built for signal interfacing within Modicon Premium / TSX systems.
Application & Technical Notes
As an analog output module, the TSXASZ401 is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where Modicon Premium / TSX 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 4 channels. These values should be confirmed against the current manufacturer datasheet before final selection, as options and suffixes vary by configuration.
Maintenance & Diagnostics
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 TSXASZ401, 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 Premium / TSX 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.
