Product Details

Product Overview

The Emerson 396509-05-3 (Series A) serves as a foundational component for the ControlWave™ Micro RTU/PLC system. This dual-purpose module provides both regulated power distribution and discrete signal interfacing. It delivers a steady 1000 mA @ 24 VDC to the backplane while simultaneously managing up to 16 configurable digital I/O channels. We provide this unit as 100% Brand New original stock, ensuring it meets all factory performance benchmarks for mission-critical infrastructure in oil, gas, and water sectors.

Engineering Advantages

  • Optimized Rack Space: By combining the power supply and 16 digital I/O channels into a single module, you free up backplane slots for additional specialized analog or communication cards.

  • Superior Thermal Resilience: The Series A design operates flawlessly in extreme environments ranging from -40°C to +70°C. It eliminates the need for external cabinet heaters or cooling fans in most remote terminal unit (RTU) deployments.

  • Robust Signal Integrity: Per-channel optical isolation shields the sensitive ControlWave processor from field-side electrical surges and ground loops, preventing hardware damage and data corruption.

  • High-Current Field Support: With a 3600 mA field power rating, the module provides ample current to drive multiple solenoids, actuators, and large relay banks directly from the rack interface.

FAQs

Q: Can this module replace a standard power-only module in a ControlWave rack?

A: Yes, provided the rack configuration accounts for the 16 digital I/O points. The 396509-05-3 offers the same power delivery capabilities as standalone units but adds significant I/O density.

Q: How do I configure the channels as either Inputs or Outputs?

A: You define the channel direction through the ControlWave Designer software. The hardware supports flexible "Dry Contact" or 24 VDC typical discrete signals depending on your wiring and software logic.

Q: Does this unit include local termination?

A: The module supports local termination via the standard ControlWave Micro connector system. We recommend verifying your existing cable assembly compatibility if upgrading from an older Series card.

Q: Is this module compatible with Series B components?

A: This is a Series A module. While many ControlWave components maintain cross-series compatibility, you should verify the specific backplane version to ensure 100% timing and diagnostic synchronization.
