Schneider 170XTS00501 Modicon Momentum Busbar 2 Rows Screw Terminals

Technical Specifications Breakdown

Key parameters for the 170XTS00501 are listed below for quick reference:

Industry Applications

Protective Distribution in Control Panels

In a typical manufacturing line, multiple field devices such as sensors and actuators need a reliable common power or ground reference. The 170XTS00501 busbar provides this connection within the Modicon Momentum chassis. Its screw type terminals allow secure, vibration-resistant wiring, reducing the risk of intermittent faults.

Compact Panel Layouts

With two horizontal rows, this busbar helps organize wiring in space-constrained enclosures. The 0.15 lb weight and small package dimensions (1.1 x 1.9 x 5.1 inches) make it easy to integrate without adding significant bulk.

Installation & Setup Guidance

Mount the busbar onto the designated discrete or analog I/O base as per the Momentum platform guidelines. Use the screw type terminals to terminate field wiring. Ensure all connections are torqued to the manufacturer's recommended specification (not provided here; refer to the product manual). Operate within 0 to 60 degrees Celsius and below 80% non-condensing humidity. For installations above 1000 meters, derating may apply.

Maintenance & Reliability

Periodically inspect the screw terminals for tightness and signs of corrosion. Keep the busbar clean and free of dust. The robust bus bar material and conservative temperature rating support long-term reliability in typical industrial environments.

Streamlining Field Wiring with the Schneider 170XTS00501 Busbar

When managing a Modicon Momentum automation platform, organizing field device connections can become a bottleneck. The Schneider Electric 170XTS00501 busbar addresses this challenge by providing a common connection point for discrete and analog I/O bases. This component serves as a protective distribution connector, simplifying wiring and reducing potential points of failure.

Compatibility & Integration

The 170XTS00501 is designed for the Modicon Momentum automation platform. It is compatible with both discrete I/O bases and analog I/O bases. Use it as a common connection for field devices and as a protective distribution connector.
