Product Introduction
The Schneider Electric 140CRA93200R is a Modicon Quantum RIO (Remote I/O) Drop Adapter Module, engineered for high-reliability communication between a Quantum controller and distributed I/O racks using the RIO remote I/O network. This module allows integration of multiple I/O points across large industrial systems, significantly reducing cabling complexity and enabling scalable architecture.
As part of the Modicon Quantum series, the 140CRA93200R enhances system flexibility by enabling a remote drop to be connected to the Quantum RIO head, usually a CRP module. It works by acting as a communication interface between the I/O base and the remote master, ensuring deterministic data exchange with extremely low latency.
Its rugged design, certified industrial standards, and support for hot swapping make it ideal for critical automation infrastructures in energy, utilities, process industries, and large manufacturing plants.
