Product Introduction
The Schneider BMXART0814H Analog Input Module is a ruggedized analog input module from the Modicon X80 platform, designed for use with Modicon M340 and Modicon M580 Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs). The module provides high-accuracy analog signal acquisition for industrial automation systems, enabling controllers to monitor and process critical process variables from field instruments and sensors.
Featuring 8 analog input channels, the BMXART0814H is capable of collecting data from a wide variety of industrial devices, including pressure transmitters, temperature sensors, flow transmitters, level measurement instruments, and other process monitoring equipment. The module incorporates a 15-bit plus sign input resolution, ensuring precise measurement and reliable signal conversion for demanding control applications.
A key feature of the BMXART0814H is channel-to-channel isolation. This isolation improves measurement accuracy while protecting the automation system from electrical interference, ground loops, and signal disturbances commonly encountered in industrial environments. As a result, the module is particularly well suited for critical process applications requiring stable and accurate analog data acquisition.
The BMXART0814H is specifically designed for harsh industrial environments. Its ruggedized construction allows operation across an extended temperature range of -25°C to +70°C, making it suitable for outdoor installations, utility infrastructure, mining facilities, chemical plants, and other challenging environments.
As part of the Modicon X80 family, the module benefits from a common automation platform shared by Modicon M340 and Modicon M580 systems. This architecture simplifies system engineering, maintenance, spare parts management, and future expansion while delivering the reliability required for modern industrial automation projects.
