Overview
The TM171VEVD4 is a Schneider Modicon M171 EEV driver, order code TM171VEVD4, designed for autonomous and hardwired control of electronic expansion valves. The unit provides 8 I/O total: 4 analog inputs (2 NTC, 2 Pt1000, configurable for 4...20 mA, 0...5 V, or 0...10 V), 2 digital inputs (sink or source), and 2 digital outputs (1 open collector, 1 SPST relay). A single Modbus RS485 serial port is included. The TM171VEVD4 carries CE marking and is classified as a controller within the Modicon M171 range.
Compared to the TM171VEVA2 (1 analog input, 1 digital output, 2 I/O total), the TM171VEVD4 offers 4 analog inputs, 2 digital inputs, and 2 digital outputs — 8 I/O total. The additional analog channels support both NTC and Pt1000 probes, and the second output is a SPST relay. Choose the TM171VEVD4 when the application requires more sensor inputs and a relay output for valve or alarm control.
Lifecycle
The TM171VEVD4 is discontinued by Schneider, effective 2021-02-12. No direct successor is listed in the Modicon M171 range. For new designs or replacements, evaluate current-production controllers in the Modicon M171/M172/M173 family that offer equivalent I/O and EEV drive capability.
