Schneider Electric BMXDRA1605

Overview

The BMXDRA1605 is a discrete output module from the Modicon X80 range, designed to provide reliable control over various output devices in industrial automation systems. With 16 discrete outputs in relay configuration, this module can handle a wide range of applications that demand precise and efficient output control.

Versatile Output Options

The BMXDRA1605 offers 16 discrete outputs, conforming to EN/IEC 61131-2 standards. These outputs are relay-based, allowing them to handle a broad range of loads and voltages. The module supports two distinct voltage options: 24 V DC with a range of 19 to 30 V DC and 24 to 240 V AC with a range of 19 to 264 V AC. This flexibility in voltage options makes the module suitable for various output devices and applications.

High Thermal Current and Insulation Resistance

The module is rated with a conventional free air thermal current (Ith) of 2 A, enabling it to handle significant electrical loads without overheating. The insulation resistance of over 10 MOhm at 500 V DC ensures reliable isolation between channels and the external circuit, minimizing the risk of electrical interference.

Enhanced Protection and Durability

The BMXDRA1605 is designed to offer robust protection for both the module and connected devices. It features output overload protection, requiring the use of a fast-blow fuse per channel or group of channels. For overvoltage protection in DC outputs, discharge diodes are utilized, while RC circuits are employed for AC outputs. Surge limiters using ZNO technology are employed for additional protection in AC outputs.

Fast Response Time and Low Current Consumption

With an activation response time of less than 8 ms and a deactivation response time of less than 10 ms, the BMXDRA1605 ensures quick and precise output control. Despite its high performance, the module maintains low current consumption of just 79 mA at 3.3 V DC, contributing to energy efficiency in the overall system.

Long MTBF Reliability

The BMXDRA1605 boasts an impressive Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) reliability of 1,357,810 hours, reflecting its robust design and durability. This high reliability ensures that the module can perform consistently and reliably in demanding industrial environments, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

Wide Range of Electrical Durability

The module is tested for electrical durability under various conditions, including AC and DC loads. With a high number of cycles, it can withstand the demands of different applications, making it a versatile and reliable choice for industrial automation.

Environmental and Safety Certifications

The BMXDRA1605 adheres to various international standards, including EN/IEC 61010-2-201, UL 61010-2-201, CSA C22.2 No 61010-2-201, and EN/IEC 61131-2. These certifications validate its safety and compliance with industry regulations.

Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Design

As a Green Premium product, the BMXDRA1605 adheres to sustainability principles and environmental regulations. It is mercury-free and complies with EU RoHS directives. The module's Circular Economy Profile provides valuable information for end-of-life disposal, promoting responsible waste management and recycling.

In conclusion, the BMXDRA1605 discrete output module is a versatile and reliable component in the Modicon X80 range, designed to provide precise and efficient control over 16 discrete outputs. With its relay-based configuration, wide voltage options, and enhanced protection features, it is suitable for various industrial automation applications. The module's high thermal current, quick response time, and low current consumption contribute to its efficient performance. Furthermore, its certifications, durability, and eco-friendly design make it a dependable and sustainable choice for industrial automation systems.
