Product details

Controls integration note

The TM5C12D8T is a compact I/O expansion block in the Modicon TM5 family, offering 12 sink-type digital inputs and 8 source-type digital outputs rated at 0.5 A per output. Input voltage range is 20.4 to 28.8 V DC; output voltage matches. Input impedance sits at 6.4 kOhm, and input filtering is software-configurable up to 25 ms, which lets you match the filter time to your sensor response without additional hardware.

Panel mounting

Width is 12.5 mm (0.5 in), so the block fits tightly on a DIN rail. Power dissipation is 2.36 W. The 24 V DC input/output supply draws 80 mA typical; the 5 V DC bus draws 68 mA. Isolation between channels and bus is 500 Vrms AC. Operating environment: IP20, pollution degree 2, ambient temperature range unspecified in listed specs but shock (15 gn, 11 ms) and vibration (1 gn, 8.4–150 Hz on DIN rail) ratings give confidence for industrial cabinets.
