Schneider KPO104MBP PLC Module for Modicon Micro Controllers

The Schneider KPO104MBP serves as a compact digital I/O module for Modicon Micro PLCs. You can install this unit directly into any standard Micro rack slot. It captures discrete field signals and drives output actuators reliably. This module suits small to medium-sized automation applications.

Technical Specifications and Hardware Layout

The Schneider KPO104MBP measures 85 mm in height. Its width reaches 32 mm, and the depth equals 65 mm. The Schneider KPO104MBP weighs approximately 0.12 kilograms. A single internal PCB holds all input and output circuits. The module provides six digital input channels for 24 V DC sensors. Additionally, it delivers four transistor output channels for actuator control. The unit stores no energy in capacitors or batteries. One 20-pin front connector handles all field wiring connections.

Input and Output Electrical Ratings

The Schneider KPO104MBP accepts input voltages from 0 V to 30 V DC. It recognizes a logic “1” at 15 V DC or higher. A logic “0” occurs below 5 V DC reliably. Each input draws a typical current of 5 mA at 24 V DC. For outputs, each transistor channel switches 0.3 A at 24 V DC. The total output current per module reaches 1.2 A maximum. Consequently, this module drives small indicator lamps and relays effectively. Short-circuit protection on outputs prevents damage during wiring faults.

Installation and Practical Application Tips

You must snap the Schneider KPO104MBP firmly into a standard Micro rack slot. Transitioning to wiring, use 0.5 mm² to 1.5 mm² stranded copper wire. The screw-type terminals require a 2.5 mm flathead screwdriver for tightening. Ten front LEDs show input and output status clearly. The operating temperature range extends from 0°C to 55°C reliably.
