The Schneider TM200C40U is part of the Modicon M200 series PLCs, engineered for responsive digital control in complex industrial setups. Operating on a 24 V DC supply with a voltage range of 20.4 to 28.8 V, it delivers efficient performance at just 10 W power consumption under full I/O load. This PLC includes 24 discrete inputs—comprising 4 high-speed, 4 fast, and 16 regular inputs—and supports a discrete input voltage of 24 V at 7 mA, ensuring reliable signal processing across all channels.
For output control, the TM200C40U offers 16 transistor outputs, including 2 high-speed channels (Q0–Q1) that support PWM, PLS, and PTO modes up to 100 kHz. Standard outputs (Q2–Q15) are rated at 0.5 A each, with a combined maximum of 2 A on COM 0 and COM 1, and 4 A on COM 2. Built-in short-circuit and overload protection at 3.8 A ensures durability under stress, while its 35 A inrush current tolerance provides stable startup even during peak loads.
Equipped with a 512-byte internal flash memory that supports up to 10,000 instructions, the TM200C40U offers dependable program retention. Communication is seamless via USB 2.0, RS232, and RS485 ports, with support for Modbus RTU/ASCII and SoMachine Network protocols, making it compatible with both legacy and modern PLC systems.
