Product Overview
The 140NWM05000 is a DIO head-end adaptor from Schneider Electric’s Modicon Quantum series. It links distributed I/O to the Quantum backplane and requires an assigned IP address for network communication. A removable door simplifies access during installation and service.
If you run oil, gas or industrial automation lines, this adaptor is the practical bridge between your controller and distributed I/O. Oil AutoTech supplies ready-to-ship spares for exactly these applications.

Technical Specifications
Interfaces and Networking
The 140NWM05000 provides RS-232, 100 Base-Fx and 10/100 Base-T interfaces. That mix covers legacy serial devices, fiber runs and standard Ethernet, so you can integrate it into mixed network environments without extra conversion hardware.
Power and Diagnostics
Bus current reaches 900 mA, with 750 mA available through the serial port. Power dissipation is 4.5 W total and 3.8 W for the serial port. Diagnostic LEDs support quick troubleshooting and system monitoring. Firmware is upgradable, which helps extend service life as requirements change.
Environmental Limits
Operating temperature spans 0 to 40 degrees Celsius, and storage temperature spans 0 to 50 degrees Celsius. Maximum operating and storage humidity is 80% RH, non-condensing. Plan cabinet ventilation and avoid condensing conditions.

Installation and Setup
Mount the module in the Quantum rack and confirm the IP address is assigned before commissioning. The removable door gives fast access to connections during wiring. Use the diagnostic LEDs to verify link and activity status as you bring the network online.
For fiber and Ethernet segments, confirm cable types and connector compatibility with your supplier. If you are wiring into a fieldbus network, note that integration may require an external gateway or connection module. Confirm cables and gateways with Oil AutoTech before ordering.
Compatibility and Integration
The 140NWM05000 fits the Modicon Quantum framework. Its RS-232, 100 Base-Fx and 10/100 Base-T interfaces support versatile networking options across distributed I/O architectures. Upgradable firmware helps the module adapt to evolving network requirements.
Buyer’s Checklist
Before you commit, verify these points:
- Confirm your Quantum rack and backplane support this head-end adaptor.
- Check that your network plan includes an IP address for the module.
- Match cable types to the RS-232, 100 Base-Fx and 10/100 Base-T interfaces.
- Review cabinet temperature and humidity against the 0 to 40 degrees Celsius operating range and 80% RH limit.
- Confirm firmware upgrade requirements with your integrator.
Please verify current lifecycle status and availability with Oil AutoTech before ordering.
