The 140ACO13000 is an 8-channel Analog Output (AO) module for the Modicon Quantum platform by Schneider Electric. It converts digital control data from the Quantum CPU into precise current or voltage signals for field devices such as proportional valves, VSDs, and industrial actuators.
Designed for heavy industrial environments, the module provides high-density analog output in a standard Quantum form factor. Each channel is independently configurable, allowing mixed signal types within a single module. With low drift and high accuracy, the 140ACO13000 is well suited for continuous process applications requiring stable and repeatable modulation.

The 140ACO13000 is commonly used in:
Closed-loop PID control systems
Boiler steam flow regulation
Chemical dosing and metering pumps (4–20 mA loops)
Variable speed drive (VSD) setpoint control
Continuous process manufacturing lines
Its multi-range flexibility allows integration of mixed voltage and current outputs within the same rack, reducing hardware requirements in space-constrained cabinets.
Q1: Does the module require an external power supply for current loops?
Yes. In 4–20 mA mode, an external 24 V DC loop supply is typically required. The module logic itself is powered by the Quantum backplane.
Q2: Can voltage and current outputs be mixed on the same module?
Yes. Each channel can be configured independently for current or voltage output.
Q3: What is the difference between 140ACO13000 and 140ACO02000?
The 140ACO13000 provides 8 output channels, while the 140ACO02000 offers 4 channels. The 8-channel version delivers higher I/O density for compact control cabinets.
