Product Introduction

The Schneider 140XBP00300 is a high-performance rack backplane designed for use with the Modicon Quantum series of automation controllers. As an essential part of the Quantum platform, this backplane serves as the physical and electrical foundation that interconnects Quantum modules, including CPUs, power supplies, I/O modules, communication adapters, and special function modules.

The 140XBP00300 model specifically supports 3 module slots, making it ideal for compact automation solutions or test environments where limited space and module count are sufficient. It offers backplane bus communication, module retention, and mechanical alignment in one robust unit. Built to Schneider Electric’s strict quality standards, this backplane delivers dependable performance in demanding industrial settings.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is the primary use of the 140XBP00300 backplane?
   It is used to host and connect up to three Modicon Quantum modules in a compact rack.

2. Which modules can be inserted into this backplane?
   It supports Quantum CPUs, I/O modules, power supplies, and communication adapters.

3. Is this backplane compatible with redundant power supplies?
   Yes, it supports power redundancy using Quantum power supply models like 140CPS12420.

4. Can it be installed horizontally or vertically?
   Typically mounted horizontally in control panels, but orientation depends on thermal design.

5. Does it include connectors or terminal blocks?
   No terminal blocks are included; modules plug directly into the backplane.

6. How is communication between modules handled?
   Through the integrated Quantum backplane bus system.

7. Is the 3-slot version expandable later?
   No, for more slots a different backplane (e.g., 10-slot or 16-slot) is required.

8. Is this product still supported by Schneider Electric?
   Yes, it remains part of Schneider’s long-term supported Quantum platform.

9. Can it be used with M580 or M340 systems?
   No, it is exclusive to the Quantum series.

10. Does it have any protective coatings for harsh environments?
    It is built to industrial-grade standards but does not include conformal coatings.
