Description

The TU842 3BSE020850R1 MTU can have up to 16 I/O channels and 2+2 process voltage connections. Each channel has two I/O connections and one ZP connection. The maximum rated voltage is 50 V and maximum rated current is 3 A per channel.

The MTU distributes the two ModuleBuses to each I/O module and to the next MTU. It also generates the correct address to the I/O modules by shifting the outgoing position signals to the next MTU.

The MTU can be mounted on a standard DIN rail. It has a mechanical latch that locks the MTU to the DIN rail.

Four mechanical keys, two for each I/O module, are used to configure the MTU for different types of I/O modules. This is only a mechanical configuration and it does not affect the functionality of the MTU or the I/O module. Each key has six positions, which gives a total number of 36 different configurations.

FAQ

Q: Can the TU842 3BSE020850R1 directly replace a non-redundant MTU?
A: It is designed for redundancy and features dual ModuleBus connections. While it can be used, it is recommended to use a redundant module for maximum cost-effectiveness.

Q: Will mismatched mechanical keys on the TU842 3BSE020850R1 cause circuit burnout?
A: No, it is mechanically isolated. If the keying is incorrect, the module cannot be fully inserted and make contact with the conductive pins.

Q: What is the maximum ambient temperature for the TU842 3BSE020850R1 when installed in a factory cabinet?
A: The maximum operating ambient temperature is 55 °C. Good ventilation and heat dissipation within the cabinet are recommended.

Q: What size factory wiring cable does the TU842 3BSE020850R1 support?
A: Compatible with 0.2 - 4 mm² solid wire or 0.2 - 2.5 mm² (24 - 12 AWG) multi-strand wire.

Q: Does the TU842 3BSE020850R1 require separate configuration software?
A: No, it's purely a physical wiring unit. The logic configuration is done in the controller (such as AC 800M) or related I/O modules.
