Schneider TSXDSZ08T2K Digital Output Module for Modicon Premium PLCs

The Schneider TSXDSZ08T2K drives actuators and indicators from Modicon Premium PLCs. You can install this module directly into any standard Premium rack slot. It provides eight transistor output channels for 24 V DC loads. This unit suits solenoid valves, contactors, and signaling lamps.

Technical Specifications and Hardware Layout

The Schneider TSXDSZ08T2K measures 100 mm in height. Its width reaches 36 mm, and the depth equals 70 mm. The Schneider TSXDSZ08T2K weighs approximately 0.14 kilograms. A single internal PCB holds all output driving and isolation circuits. The module provides eight sinking transistor outputs for DC loads. It stores no energy in capacitors or internal batteries. One 28-pin front connector handles all field wiring connections. Eight red LEDs display the real-time status of each channel.

Output Specifications and Electrical Ratings

The Schneider TSXDSZ08T2K switches outputs at 24 V DC nominal. Each channel handles a continuous current of 0.5 A maximum. The total current per module reaches 4 A. Short-circuit protection shuts down an individual channel during overload. Consequently, this module survives wiring faults without permanent damage. Output switching frequency reaches 100 Hz for rapid cycling tasks. Each channel includes an internal freewheeling diode for inductive loads. Optical isolation separates the field side from the backplane logic.

Installation and Practical Application Tips

You must snap the Schneider TSXDSZ08T2K firmly into a standard Premium rack slot. Transitioning to wiring, use 0.5 mm² to 1.5 mm² stranded copper wire. The screw-type terminals require a 3 mm flathead screwdriver for tightening. For inductive loads, the internal diodes provide adequate suppression. The operating temperature range extends from 0°C to 55°C reliably. This module consumes only 50 mA from the backplane bus.
