Overview

The TSXDSY16T2 is a Discrete output module in the Modicon Premium 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 output module, the TSXDSY16T2 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 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 -13…158 °F (-25…70 °C). Avoid condensation — the rated humidity is 10…95 % without condensation for operation; 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 TSXDSY16T2, 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.

Specifications

The TSXDSY16T2 is a discrete output module from Schneider Electric's TSX Micro PLCs series. This module features 16 solid-state outputs and operates at a discrete output voltage of 24 V DC, which is suitable for various applications that require reliable performance.

Description

NoteThe TSXDSY16T2, part of Schneider Electric's TSX Micro PLCs line, is a comprehensive discrete output module tailored for diverse automation systems. It can accommodate 16 discrete outputs and operates effectively at a rated output voltage of 24 V DC, adhering to EN/IEC 61131-2 standards. The module is capable of sourcing up to 0.5 A per output channel, contributing to enhanced system performance. Specialized protection features are integrated into the design. Electronic tripping safeguards against overload conditions and short circuits during reactivation, ensuring operational safety. A reverse-mounted diode also provides reverse polarity protection, safeguarding the device from miswired connections. Additionally, transil diodes enable output overvoltage protection, further enhancing operational reliability. During regular operations, this module maintains a minimal leakage current of less than 0.5 mA when in the off state. The residual voltage stays below 1.2 V, ensuring clean switching performance. The module achieves a swift response time of just 1.2 ms, enabling effective real-time control and feedback processes. With a specified switching frequency of 0.5/LI² Hz, the TSXDSY16T2 caters to varying signal requirements, making it adaptable for numerous applications. The maximum current rating for the module is set at 7 A, allowing for robust connectivity options in demanding environments.
