Allen-Bradley 5094-SERIALXT FLEX 5000 Serial I/O Module

FLEX 5000 Serial Module, RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 network interface, ASCII + Modbus, 80 mA backplane power, 100 mA sensor actuator power, XT variant
Lifecycle Status: Active

Description

The Allen-Bradley 5094-SERIALXT FLEX 5000 serial module is designed for distributed I/O architectures that require serial device integration in harsh industrial environments. It provides a network interface to RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 devices and is used with compatible Logix 5000 controllers in FLEX 5000 I/O systems.

Lifecycle Status: Active

  • FLEX 5000 specialty serial I/O module
  • Supports RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 serial device connectivity
  • Front marking identifies ASCII + Modbus operation
  • Designed for use in FLEX 5000 distributed I/O systems
  • Backplane power consumption: 80 mA at 15V DC maximum
  • Sensor actuator power: 100 mA at 18…32V DC maximum
  • Operating temperature: -40 °C to +70 °C
  • Open-style enclosure
  • Wire size: 0.34…2.5 mm² (22…14 AWG) solid or stranded copper wire

This module is suited for machine control and industrial automation applications where serial communication must be integrated into a modern EtherNet/IP-based control architecture through FLEX 5000 I/O. Typical use cases include connection of legacy serial instruments, barcode readers, printers, and other field devices that communicate over RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 networks.
