TSXP57203M
Schneider Electric
Overview
The TSXP57203M is a Double-format PL7 processor 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 double-format pl7 processor, the TSXP57203M is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where Modicon Premium / TSX equipment is installed. It hosts the application program, executes the control cycle and orchestrates I/O scanning, communication and diagnostics for the station.
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. Back up the application program and parameter set before any firmware or hardware change; verify the memory/real-time-clock battery where fitted and replace on schedule. Monitor the module health LED and controller diagnostics; plan spares for critical stations to minimise downtime. 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 TSXP57203M, 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 CPU matches your Modicon Premium / TSX architecture, memory size, firmware revision and any required option/communication modules. 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 TSXP57203M is a compact programmable logic controller designed for high-speed processing and control. It features a system overhead with a fast task execution time of 0.3 milliseconds and a master task time of 1 millisecond, facilitating quick responses in automation applications. The internal RAM allows for 224 KB of program storage and 96 KB of data while utilizing a PCMCIA card. Users can also utilize an additional 256 KB of storage with the card installed. For instruction efficiency, this PLC achieves execution times per instruction of 0.19 microseconds for Boolean operations when not using a PCMCIA card, increasing to 0.25 microseconds when engaged. The processing capability peaks at 3.71 Kinst/ms without the PCMCIA and 2.1 Kinst/ms with it, ensuring robust performance for complex tasks. With a standard module format, the TSXP57203M weighs approximately 0.84 lbs. (0.38 kg) and supports up to two communication modules. It is equipped with integrated connection types such as Ethernet TCP/IP via an RJ45 interface and a serial link utilizing female mini-DIN RS485 at 19.2 kbit/s for flexible networking options. Additionally, the PLC facilitates 512 discrete I/O and 24 analog I/O points, enhancing its applicability in diverse control systems. Its structure includes 1 master task, a fast task, and up to 32 event tasks. The TSXP57203M thus stands as a competent solution for advanced automation requirements, fulfilling the need for efficiency and adaptability in various operational frameworks. |
