Schneider 170AAI14000 Distributed Analog Input Base

Product Introduction

The Schneider Electric 170AAI14000 is a distributed analog input module belonging to the Modicon Momentum I/O family. Designed for precision and durability, this module is engineered to acquire and transmit analog process signals within a distributed control architecture. It features eight isolated analog input channels, which allow for simultaneous high-accuracy measurement of field signals in industrial environments.

The 170AAI14000 supports multiple input ranges (0–10 V, 4–20 mA, and other common ranges), ensuring compatibility with a wide array of transmitters and sensors. With optical isolation between channels, it guarantees signal integrity even in electrically noisy conditions. The module is used in combination with Momentum I/O bases and network adapters, forming a compact, modular automation solution suitable for demanding applications.

Whether used in standalone applications or integrated within large-scale automation networks, the 170AAI14000 delivers robust performance, long service life, and easy installation.
