Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I use this rack with a single processor?
Yes. It supports one TSXP57 processor plus multiple I/O modules.
- Is the rack compatible with third‑party modules?
No. It only accepts Schneider Electric Modicon Premium modules.
- How do I extend the bus to a second rack?
Use the two SUB‑D 9 connectors on the rear panel for remote bus X connection.
- What is the maximum operating temperature?
60 °C. Keep ambient temperature within 0…60 °C for safe operation.
- Does the rack include a power supply?
No. You need a separate TSXPSY power supply (sold separately).
- Can I mount this on a DIN rail without screws?
Yes. Use the supplied clips for 35 mm symmetrical DIN rail.
- Is it suitable for outdoor use?
No. IP20 and pollution degree 2 limit it to indoor, clean environments.
- How to choose between panel and DIN rail?
Panel offers fixed installation; DIN rail allows quick swap and space savings. Choose based on your cabinet design.
- What if I need more than 12 slots?
Add a second rack via the bus extension connectors (up to 4 racks total).
- Does it support hot‑swapping modules?
No. Power off the rack before inserting or removing modules.
Selection Guide
- Count your I/O and processor modules – choose 12 slots for medium to large systems.
- Check your mounting preference: panel (screws) or DIN rail (clips).
- Confirm environmental conditions: 0…60 °C, IP20, altitude ≤2000 m.
- Verify certifications needed (e.g., marine: DNV, GL, ABS).
- Plan bus extension if you need more than one rack – the TSXRKY12EX supports it.
