Overview

The TSXDMZ28AR is a Discrete relay I/O base in the Modicon TSX Micro automation platform range from Schneider Electric. It is engineered for industrial automation duties within the Modicon Premium / TSX ecosystem.

Application & Technical Notes

As a discrete relay i/o base, the TSXDMZ28AR is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where Modicon Premium / TSX equipment is installed. It performs a defined automation function within the control system and is selected to match the installed Schneider Electric platform.

Key published characteristics include a 24 V DC rating, an operating temperature range of -25°C to +70°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 (-25°C to +70°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 5% to 95% non-condensing; store and operate the module in a dry, pollution-degree-appropriate enclosure. Inspect terminals and connectors for corrosion or looseness, and confirm the module seats correctly in its carrier. 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 TSXDMZ28AR, 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 mechanical and electrical compatibility with your Modicon Premium / TSX installation and the intended function. Lead times and pricing vary by region and lifecycle status; obtain a current quote from an authorised channel rather than relying on stale listings.
