Product details

Motion and Logic on a Single Cycle

The Schneider Electric TM262L20MESE8T is a Modicon M262 controller that runs logic and motion on a unified 0.5 ms cycle, so you don't need separate CPUs for coordinated axes. Fast transistor outputs (Q0...Q3) switch off in ≤1 µs—useful for registration cam or clamp-on-edge sequences. Eight event tasks let real-time responses break out of the main scan for machine safety or high-speed counting. The real-time clock drifts ≤10 s/month at 25 °C, backed by 1000 h of supercap hold-up, so timestamping stays solid through a weekend shutdown.

Commissioning Notes

Mounts on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 rail, or screw to a panel with the fixing kit. Terminal blocks are spring-cage, removable: one for I/O, one for the 24 VDC supply. The supply sees 40 A inrush at power-up; size your PSU with that in mind. Fast inputs are IEC 61131-2 Type 1, 2.81 kΩ impedance, sinking logic. Default communication: 10/100/1000 Mbit/s on Ethernet2, 10/100 on Ethernet1, and a dedicated USB port at 480 Mbit/s for commissioning download. RS485 at 115 kbit/s (15 m) and RS232 at 115 kbit/s (3 m) round out the serial options.

Spare and Lifecycle

That means confident sourcing for new lines or spares cabinets. No direct functional drop-in from within the M262 family is listed because this exact I/O count and performance combination is the one you BOM'd. If you've accidentally got a TM262L20MESE8T on a line-down emergency, we can quote against an RFQ; the part is still alive through normal distribution.

Documentation and Standards

Carries UL 61010-1, UL 61010-2-201, CSA C22.2 No 61010-1 and 61010-2-201, CSA C22.2 No 213, ANSI/ISA 12-12-01 (Class I Division 2), and IEC 61131-2. Pollution degree 2. Vibration: 3.5 mm at 2–8.4 Hz, 1 gn at 8.4–200 Hz on rail or panel. Shock: 15 gn/11 ms. Altitude: operate up to 2000 m, store to 3000 m. Program memory backed by 1 GB internal flash—holds recipes and firmware without a battery.
