Use this backplane from Schneider Electric to organise I/O modules and connect them to a PLC. This component extends the capabilities of a PLC and is suitable to use in industrial safety applications as it doesn't interfere with safety processes. For ease, the rack provides control signals and distributes the power necessary to operate the installed modules. This backplane is compatible with processors and accessories from Schneider Electric's Modicon Quantum range that control complex continuous or semi-continuous industrial processes.

• Strong metal frame for longevity in harsh environments
• Includes tapped holes for quick connection of each module
• Supplied with an earthing terminal for safety
• Ten free slots for accommodating the connection of multiple distributed, local or remote I/O modules

• Petrochemicals industry
• Water treatment plants
• Hydropower generation
• Metallurgy industry

No, there are no reserved slots on this backplane, meaning you're not limited to where you fit your modules. It's recommended you insert power supply modules in the far left slot, as this helps with heat dissipation.
