Schneider TSXRKY8

The TSXRKY8 is an 8-slot standard rack chassis from Schneider Electric’s Modicon Premium series, designed for installing I/O modules, communication modules, and other components within a single rack. Featuring a non-extendable structure, it offers an IP20 protection rating and is compatible with the standard dimensions of Modicon Premium series PLCs.

Key Technical Specifications

• Number of Slots: 8 slots (one module per slot)
• Protection Rating: IP20 (dustproof and protection against electric shock)
• Mounting Methods: Directly mountable on 35 mm DIN rails (using four M6×25 mm screws, washers, and sliding nuts), panel-mountable (four M6 screws), or fixable on AM1-PA Telequick mounting grids
• Dimensions: Compliant with Modicon Premium series PLC standard dimensions; specific dimensions vary slightly by module type
• Torque Requirement: Maximum tightening torque for fixing screws is 2.0 N·m (approximately 1.6 lb-ft)
• Power Supply: Powered by an internal rack power module, compatible with 24 V DC systems

Product Features

• Modular Design: 8-slot structure enables flexible addition or removal of I/O, communication, or functional modules based on on-site requirements.
• Multiple Mounting Options: Supports DIN rail, panel, or Telequick mounting grids to adapt to different on-site layouts.
• High Reliability: IP20 protection, industrial-grade threaded connections, and compliance with IEC 60204-1 electrical safety standards.
• Strong Compatibility: Specifically designed for Modicon Premium series PLCs, allowing direct assembly of all corresponding modules.
• Easy Maintenance: Modular plug-and-play structure eliminates the need to remove the entire rack when inspecting or replacing modules.

Structure and Composition

• Rack Body: Metal frame providing 8 standardized slots.
• Fixing Components: M6 screws, washers, sliding nuts (for DIN rails) or regular screws (for panels).
• Terminal Blocks: Screw-type terminal blocks per slot for convenient on-site wiring.
• Backplane/Support Plate: Provides structural support and positioning holes for securing modules.

Typical Application Fields

• Industrial Automation: On-site environments requiring numerous I/O interfaces, such as assembly lines, packaging machinery, and CNC machine tools.
• Process Control: PLC control systems for continuous production processes in chemical, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and other industries.
• Building Automation: Energy management and security monitoring systems for large-scale buildings.
• Energy and Power: Distribution automation and substation monitoring systems.

Installation and Maintenance Guidelines

• Pre-installation Inspection: Ensure a minimum gap of 30 mm (for slots) or 50 mm (for the entire rack) between the rack and on-site DIN rails or panels.
• Screw Tightening: Use a torque wrench to ensure the tightening torque does not exceed 2.0 N·m, preventing thread damage.
• Module Insertion/Removal: Perform operations when power is off or modules are disconnected from the power supply to avoid malfunctions caused by instantaneous current surges.
• Wiring Specifications: Use cables compliant with IEC 60204-1, keep wire harnesses neat, and avoid cross-interference.
• Regular Inspections: Check screw tightness, terminal block corrosion, and the integrity of the rack surface protective layer every 6–12 months.
• Replacement and Upgrade: For capacity expansion, compatible I/O or communication modules can be directly added to empty slots; if the rack reaches its capacity limit, consider upgrading to the TSXRKY8EX (extendable version).
