It is a current-production part with product status Active, so it remains a qualified line item on serial-build BOMs without lifecycle risk. ## Memory, MTBF, and environmental envelope The module carries 64 MB of integrated RAM for program and data. MTBF is rated at 600,000 hours, and the operating ambient temperature span is 0 to 60 °C with 5 to 95 % non-condensing humidity. Shock resistance is 30 gn, vibration 3 gn. The IP20 enclosure suits protected panel mounting. The module is also listed for hazardous locations Class I Division 2, broadening its deployment beyond ordinary control rooms. The BMED581020 carries CE marking and complies with Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU, EMC Directive 2014/30/EU, and Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. It meets IEC 61131-2, IEC 61010-2-201, and UL 61010-2-201. For hazardous locations it holds a Class I Division 2 environmental characteristic. These certifications are documented per the manufacturer’s declaration of conformity; RoHS and REACH compliance is standard for current Schneider Electric/Telemecanique product releases. ## Networking and rack configuration Integrated connections include one Ethernet TCP/IP service port and two Ethernet TCP/IP device network ports. The module supports up to four racks and 64 distributed devices, with status LEDs for RUN, ERR, I/O fault, download, forced I/O, and Ethernet MS/NS.","metaTitle":"SQUARE D BMED581020 M580 Processor Module, Active","metaDescription":"BMED581020 is an active Modicon M580 processor module.
