AEG AS-9584-000 Modicon 984 Series PLC Chassis

  • Product Introduction: This is a dedicated rack chassis and backplane bus module for the AEG Modicon 984 series medium and large PLC systems, providing a standardized mechanical installation space and high-speed data transmission bus for the 984 series CPU, I/O, communication, and functional modules. It adopts a modular backplane design, supports multi-chassis expansion, and is the core hardware carrier for building large-scale industrial control systems.
  • Technical Specifications:
    • Number of Module Slots: 8 standard slots, compatible with all Modicon 984 series I/O and functional modules.
    • Backplane Bus Type: High-speed parallel bus, data transmission rate up to 10 Mbps.
    • Bus Power Supply: 24 VDC, provided by an external dedicated power supply module (AS-S908 series recommended).

Detailed content

    • Expansion Capability: Supports up to 4 chassis cascading through the expansion bus, maximum 32 slots in total.
    • Slot Spacing: 35mm, standard Modicon module mounting size.
    • Mechanical Material: Cold-rolled steel plate with electrostatic spraying, corrosion resistance and impact resistance.
    • Operating Temperature: -20°C to +60°C; Storage Temperature: -40°C to +85°C.
    • Protection Rating: IP20; Dimensions: 450mm × 200mm × 80mm (W×H×D); Weight: 3.5 kg.
    • Mounting: Standard 35mm DIN rail mounting or panel mounting with mounting ears.
  • Functional Features:
    • The high-speed backplane bus ensures real-time data transmission between the CPU module and each I/O/functional module, with minimal data transmission delay, suitable for high-speed and high-precision industrial control systems.
    • The 8-slot design balances the system expansion capability and the compactness of the chassis, which can meet the configuration requirements of most medium-sized industrial control systems.
    • Supports hot swapping of modules in idle slots, and the modules in working slots can be replaced under specific conditions, which improves the maintainability of the system.
    • The backplane bus has built-in fault detection and isolation functions. When a module fails, it can be automatically isolated to avoid the failure spreading to the entire system and ensure the normal operation of other modules.
    • The chassis is equipped with a dedicated grounding terminal and electromagnetic shielding structure, which effectively reduces the electromagnetic interference of the industrial field on the backplane bus and ensures the stability of data transmission.
    • The modular cascading design allows users to expand the number of system slots according to the actual control requirements, realizing the flexible configuration of the control system and reducing the initial investment cost.
    • The chassis is marked with clear slot numbers and module installation guidelines, which is convenient for on-site installation and wiring, and reduces the probability of installation errors.
  • Application Scenarios: It is the core hardware foundation for building AEG Modicon 984 series PLC systems, widely used in large-scale industrial control projects such as oil refinery full-process control, steel mill smelting automation systems, automobile assembly line central control systems, and port cargo handling equipment control systems. It is also used in municipal large-scale water supply and drainage systems and power plant auxiliary system control, and is suitable for all industrial occasions that require medium and large-scale I/O capacity and multi-module collaborative work.
