Schneider 140NOC77100C Modicon Quantum TCP/IP Module for Industrial Automation

Product Overview

The Schneider Electric 140NOC77100C is a TCP/IP module designed for the Modicon Quantum automation platform. It provides reliable network communication for industrial applications such as machine control, material handling, packaging, and textile machinery. This module operates within a temperature range of 0 to 40 degrees Celsius and supports a maximum humidity of 80% RH, non-condensing, making it suitable for standard indoor environments.

Technical Specifications

Key specifications of the 140NOC77100C include support for the EtherNet/IP protocol, a maximum of 128 connections, and a transmission rate of 10/100 Mbit/s. The module uses a twisted pair transmission medium and features an RJ45 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet port. It consumes 500 mA at 5 V DC and is powered via the rack. The module format is standard, with a net weight of 0.345 kg. It is CE marked and carries certifications including UL 508, CSA C22.2 No 142, and FM Class 1 Division 2. The IP degree of protection is IP20.

Industry Applications

In machine control applications, the 140NOC77100C enables reliable communication between controllers and devices, reducing downtime. For material handling systems, its 128 connection capacity supports large networks of sensors and actuators. In packaging and textile machinery, the module's 10/100 Mbit/s transmission rate ensures fast data exchange for precise operations.

Installation & Setup Guidance

Install the 140NOC77100C in a clean indoor environment free of corrosive chemicals. Ensure the rack provides adequate power supply. Connect the module via the RJ45 port using a twisted pair cable. Verify that the operating temperature remains between 0 and 40 degrees Celsius and humidity below 80% RH, non-condensing. The module supports altitudes up to 1000 meters above sea level.

Maintenance & Reliability

Regularly inspect the module for dust accumulation and ensure the ventilation is unobstructed. Check the LED indicators for communication status: a green Active LED for bus communication, a green Ready LED for configuration status, a green 100MB LED for connection speed, a green Link LED for Ethernet network status, a green/red Fduplex/Col LED for full duplex/collision detection, a green/red Mod Status LED for module status, a green/red Net Status LED for network communication status, a green RxActive LED for reception activity, and a green TxActive LED for transmission activity. Maintain the storage temperature between 0 and 50 degrees Celsius and humidity below 80% RH.

Compatibility & Integration

The 140NOC77100C is compatible with all Unity CPUs. It supports communication services including CIP Explicit messaging (client messaging), SNMP agent, DHCP/BootP server, and CIP Implicit messaging (I/O communication). The module does not support standalone redundancy. It integrates seamlessly into Modicon Quantum systems for efficient network communication.

Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice

Before purchasing, verify that your system uses the Modicon Quantum platform and requires EtherNet/IP communication. Confirm the rack power supply can provide 500 mA at 5 V DC. Check the environmental conditions match the module's operating range. For reliable sourcing, contact BluePLC Industrial to ensure genuine Schneider products and current availability.
