Information About BMXDDO1602

Design
The BMXDDO1602 module is specifically designed for discrete output operations. It utilizes solid-state technology for enhanced performance and longevity. The module operates on a 24 V DC power supply, with a voltage range of 19 to 30 V DC. It provides a maximum current of 0.5 A per channel, allowing it to handle a variety of low-power applications.

The module offers positive discrete output logic, which means that it outputs a positive voltage or signal when activated. It is compatible with the IEC 61131-2 Type 3 DC input, ensuring seamless integration with other devices that adhere to this standard. However, it does not support IEC 61131-2 DC inputs.

Features
The BMXDDO1602 module features various protective mechanisms to ensure safe and reliable operation. It includes external short-circuit protection, overload protection, overvoltage protection, and reverse polarity protection. The output overload protection is achieved through an electronic circuit breaker, which ensures that the current remains within a safe range. The module also incorporates a transil diode for output overvoltage protection. In case of a short circuit, the module is equipped with a 2 A external fuse for protection. Additionally, a reverse-mounted diode offers reverse polarity protection.

The module's response time on the output is a swift 1.2 ms, enabling quick and accurate control of the connected devices. It supports output paralleling for up to two outputs, allowing for efficient distribution of signals. The module has a typical current consumption of 100 mA at 3.3 V DC.

Schneider Electric has taken several measures to ensure the reliability and durability of the BMXDDO1602 module. It has an MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) reliability rating of 409,413 hours. The module is designed to withstand external short circuits, with power dissipation limited to a maximum of 4 W. It also exhibits a low leakage current of less than 0.5 mA in the deactivated state.

Standards
The BMXDDO1602 module is built to withstand harsh industrial environments. It has an IP20 degree of protection, safeguarding it against solid objects and providing basic protection against accidental contact. It meets various international standards, including EN/IEC 61131-2, UL, CSA, CE, RCM, and Merchant Navy. The module is capable of operating within a wide temperature range, from 32 to 140 °F (0 to 60 °C), and can withstand vibrations up to 3 gn and shocks up to 30 gn.

In conclusion, the Schneider Electric BMXDDO1602 is a discrete output module that offers reliable and efficient control of 16 outputs in industrial automation applications. With its solid-state technology, protective mechanisms, and compatibility with standard interfaces, it provides a versatile solution for integration with PLCs and other control systems.
