Schneider Electric 170ENT11002 Modicon Momentum Ethernet Communication Module

Description

Integrating distributed I/O into industrial Ethernet networks is simplified with the Schneider Electric 170ENT11002, a dedicated Ethernet communication adapter designed for the Modicon Momentum automation platform. This module serves as an interface between Momentum I/O bases and an Ethernet network, allowing real-time data exchange and control. By mounting directly onto any Momentum I/O base, it establishes a compact, network-ready node without requiring a separate backplane.

Features

• Direct mounting onto Modicon Momentum I/O bases for a space-saving footprint.
• Standard RJ45 connector interface for 10Base-T Ethernet networks.
• Supports Modbus TCP/IP protocol for seamless integration with PLCs and SCADA systems.
• LED diagnostic indicators for module status, network activity, and link integrity.
• Low internal bus current consumption of 315 mA at 5 V DC.

Applications

• Water and wastewater treatment facilities.
• Distributed control systems (DCS) in manufacturing plants.
• Power generation and distribution monitoring.
• Oil and gas pipeline telemetry.

Installation Guidelines

To ensure optimal performance and reliability of the 170ENT11002 communication module, follow these engineering guidelines:

• Mounting: Snap the adapter securely onto the Modicon Momentum I/O base. Ensure the locking mechanisms engage fully.
• Grounding: Verify that the I/O base is properly grounded to the DIN rail to mitigate electromagnetic interference.
• Cabling: Use Category 5 (or higher) shielded twisted pair (STP) cabling. Route communication cables away from high-voltage power lines to prevent signal degradation.
