Schneider 170XTS00301 Modicon Momentum Terminal Connector Kit

Product Overview

When industrial systems require reliable and organized field device connections, the Schneider 170XTS00301 terminal connector kit delivers a practical solution. Part of the Modicon Momentum automation platform, this accessory serves as a busbar with three horizontal rows, providing a common connection point for discrete and analog I/O bases. Its compact dimensions—1.42 inches in height, 2.24 inches in width, and 5.05 inches in length—make it easy to integrate into control panels. Weighing only 110 grams, the kit is lightweight yet robust enough for demanding environments.

Technical Specifications Breakdown

The 170XTS00301 operates reliably across a wide temperature range, from 0 to 60 degrees Celsius, ensuring functionality in both cold and warm industrial settings. It withstands up to 95% non-condensing humidity, making it suitable for moist environments. The kit is designed for altitudes up to 1000 meters above sea level and uses natural convection cooling, eliminating the need for additional fans or cooling systems. CE compliance confirms adherence to European safety and quality standards.

Industry Applications

This terminal connector kit excels in manufacturing plants, process control systems, and building automation. For example, in a discrete manufacturing line, it provides secure spring-type connections for sensors and actuators, reducing wiring errors. In a process control environment, the busbar serves as a protective distribution connector, simplifying maintenance and troubleshooting. The robust environmental specs ensure consistent performance even in high-humidity areas like food processing or chemical facilities.

Installation Guide

Installing the 170XTS00301 is straightforward. Mount the kit onto the discrete or analog I/O base, aligning the spring terminals with the base connectors. The three-row busbar design facilitates organized wiring for field devices. Ensure the ambient temperature stays within 0 to 60 degrees Celsius and avoid exceeding 95% humidity. No special tools are required, but verify that the base is powered off during installation to prevent damage.

Maintenance & Reliability

Regular inspection of the spring terminals and busbar connections helps maintain signal integrity. Check for signs of corrosion or loose wires, especially in high-humidity environments. The natural convection cooling design means no moving parts, reducing wear and extending service life. Following these simple steps minimizes downtime and ensures long-term reliability.
