Part of the AS-Interface (AS-i) modular system, the ASI20MT4I4OS from Schneider Electric functions as a standard AS-i master interface module. This unit is designed to connect AS-i slaves to a higher-level control system, facilitating data exchange within industrial automation networks. Its modular design allows for flexible integration into various control cabinet configurations.

Technical details

• AS-Interface (AS-i) Protocol: This module operates as an AS-i master, managing communication with AS-i slave devices.
• Operating Voltage: The module requires a supply voltage range of 26.5 to 31.6 VDC.
• Current Rating: It is rated for a maximum output current of 0.5 Amps (500 mA) for the AS-i power output.
• Module Type: Classified as a modular, standard AS-i master interface.
• Data Transfer Rate: Supports the standard AS-i data transfer rate.
• Enclosure Rating: Features an IP20 protection rating, indicating protection against solid objects larger than 12.5 mm and no protection against water.
• Internal Current Consumption: The module itself draws a maximum of 200 mA from the AS-i power supply.
• System Compatibility: Designed for integration with standard AS-Interface networks and compatible higher-level controllers.

Applications & compatibility

This Schneider Electric AS-i master module is commonly deployed in machine building, material handling systems, and process control applications where distributed I/O is required. It is suitable for environments that utilize the AS-Interface network for connecting sensors, actuators, and other simple devices to a PLC or industrial PC.
