Schneider TSX3710028DR1 Modular Basic Controller

Product Introduction

The Schneider TSX3710028DR1 is a modular basic controller from the Modicon TSX Micro series, engineered to provide reliable and flexible control for a broad range of industrial automation applications. Combining a programmable logic controller (PLC) core with integrated digital I/O channels, the TSX3710028DR1 streamlines machine-level control, discrete signal processing, and small-to-medium process automation tasks.

Housed in a robust enclosure, this controller supports both AC and DC power inputs for versatile site integration. Its compact form factor (dimensions 282.7 x 151 x 152 mm) and moderate weight (1.91 kg) enable straightforward mounting in standard TSX racks or cabinets, optimizing space utilization. With on-board discrete I/O (16 digital inputs and 12 relay outputs), the TSX3710028DR1 delivers essential I/O counts without requiring additional modules, allowing quick deployment in applications such as conveyor automation, simple process sequencing, and machine safety interlocking.

Schneider Electric’s Modicon TSX series has long been recognized for its modularity and durability. The TSX3710028DR1 reflects this heritage, offering a balanced mix of built-in I/O, programmable flexibility, and compatibility with a wide ecosystem of TSX Micro 37 expansion modules and communication options.

Technical Specifications

Product Applications

The TSX3710028DR1 is utilized across multiple industries where compact, integrated controllers are desirable:

• Machine Control: Sequencing conveyors, packaging lines, and assembly stations with built-in I/O.

• Process Automation: Small batching systems, dosing pumps, and material handling applications.

• Building Automation: Control of HVAC dampers, lighting systems, and access control relays.

• Packaging Machinery: Synchronizing motors, sensors, and relays for packaging line operations.

• Water/Wastewater Treatment: Managing pump starters and level controllers in smaller treatment cells.

• OEM Equipment: Embedded in custom machines where discrete I/O and basic logic are required without external racks.

Product Advantages

• Built-in I/O Reduces Module Count: Integrated 16 digital inputs and 12 relay outputs allow immediate use without expansion modules for simple applications.

• Wide Power Supply Range: Accepts both 100–240 V DC and 90–264 V AC, offering installation flexibility in diverse electrical environments.

• Compact, Space-Saving Design: At 282.7 × 151 × 152 mm, it occupies minimal cabinet space while still accommodating essential I/O.
