controller M241 24 IO transistor NPN This product is part of the Modicon M241 range, an offer of plc controllers for performance demanding applications. This logic controller provides 14 discrete, 8 fast inputs, 10 transistor, 4 fast outputs with NPN transistor output. It is a Modicon logic controller with a rated supply/output voltage of 24V DC, an output current of 0.5A for transistor output, 0.1A for fast with sink or source input logic positive output logic. This product enables to build application intuitively as never before due to an organised screen design. Integrated connections are USB port with mini B USB 2.0 connector, non isolated serial link 1 with RJ45 connector and RS232/RS485 interface and non isolated serial link 2 with removable screw terminal block connector and RS485 interface. It is a Modicon M241 controller with 8MB for program, 64MB for system memory RAM, 128MB built-in flash memory for backup of user programs and a SD card memory capacity of 16GB. It is an IP20 rated product. Its dimensions are 150mm (Width) x 95mm (Depth) x 90mm (Height). It weighs 0.53kg. The Modicon M241 logic controllers are designed for high-performance compact machines incorporating speed and position control functions. This product is certified by CE, IACS E10, CSA, RCM and CULus. It meets ANSI/ISA 12-12-01, CSA C22.2 No 142, CSA C22.2 No 213, EN/IEC 61131-22007, marine specification (LR, ABS, DNV, GL), UL 1604 and UL 508 standards. The TM3 I/O bus port embedded on the Modicon M241 logic controllers allows the connection of Modicon TM3 expansion modules for local, remote and distributed I/O configurations, programmed with EcoStruxure Machine Expert software. It supports DIN rail mount.
