Description

The Schneider Electric BMEXBP1200 is a Rack X80 with 12 slots and Ethernet backplane,for the Modicon M580 and M340 automation platforms. The BMEXBP1200 provides a robust chassis for mounting X80 series processor modules, I/O modules, communication modules, and power supplies in industrial control applications.

The Schneider Electric BMEXBP1200 is designated as a Green Premium product, representing Schneider Electric's commitment to sustainable and environmentally responsible manufacturing practices. The BMEXBP1200 is RoHS compliant since date code 1623, with a Schneider Electric declaration of conformity ensuring restriction of hazardous substances. The BMEXBP1200 also complies with EU REACH regulations, containing no Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) above the regulatory threshold.

The Schneider Electric BMEXBP1200 features a 12-slot configuration with Ethernet backplane, enabling high-speed communication between mounted modules. The BMEXBP1200 supports the X80 series module ecosystem, providing a flexible and scalable platform for building compact to medium-sized control systems. The BMEXBP1200 backplane facilitates module-to-module communication and power distribution.

Information

Overview Manuals Application Notes Product Applications Electrical Connections & Wiring

Features:

  • 12-Slot Ethernet Backplane Rack
  • RoHS Compliant (Since 1623)
  • REACh Compliant (No SVHC Above Threshold)
  • Multiple Mounting Options (DIN Rail or Panel)
The BMEXBP1200 features 12 total slots configured as 8 mixed-use slots supporting both Ethernet and X-bus modules, plus 4 dedicated X-bus only slots. This dual-bus architecture enables seamless integration of legacy X-bus I/O modules alongside modern Ethernet-native devices, facilitating migration and modernization of existing control systems without complete replacement of installed I/O assets.

Power supplies connect to dedicated positions that do not consume any of the 12 module slots, maximizing available space for I/O, communication, and processor modules. Both standard and redundant power supply configurations are supported, with the redundant option providing continued operation in the event of a single power supply failure.

The BMEXBP1200 Schneider Electric Rack X80 - 12 slots - Ethernet backplane may still be available for purchase and support from Amikon Limited beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

All prices are shown in USD.
The rack consumes 164 mA at 24 V DC and 86 mA at 3.3 V DC, totaling 3.9 W power consumption. An XBE expansion connector is provided for connecting to additional racks in multi-rack configurations, enabling scalable system architectures.
Physical dimensions are 154 mm in width, 67 mm in height, and 585 mm in depth for the empty rack. The overall height increases to 134.6 mm when a CPU module is mounted. The rack weighs 1.377 kg and can be mounted via four M6 screws on a mounting plate, four screws of 4.32 – 6.35 mm diameter on a panel, or via clips on a 35 mm symmetrical DIN rail.
  • Water/Wastewater: Controls pumping stations, manages SCADA telemetry, and monitors water quality in real-time
  • Oil/Gas/Petrochemical: Handles process control loops and integrates with HART for continuous diagnostics
  • Food/Beverage: Manages motion control, packaging automation, and recipe management with precision
  • Mining/Metals: Executes interlocking processes, manages material handling, and logs time-stamped events
  • Smart Manufacturing: Controls distributed machinery via Ethernet networks for reduced time-to-market
This content has been produced using multiple sources.Amikon takes no responsibility for the accuracy of this information. Always consult the original equipment manufacturer for the most up to date instructions and information.
Grounding: The rack must be connected to a functional ground using the dedicated ground stud to reduce electromagnetic interference.
Power Supply: Slot 0 is reserved for the power supply (e.g., BMXCPS) which powers the backplane directly.Processor Placement: The main controller typically sits in Slot 1.
Expansion: If you are linking this to an adjacent rack, use the integrated XBE connector on the right side of the backplane alongside an Expansion Cable .

Technical notes

The Schneider Electric BMEXBP1200 offers multiple mounting options for flexible installation. The BMEXBP1200 can be mounted on standard 35mm DIN rails using spring-loaded clips for quick installation and removal. Alternatively, the BMEXBP1200 can be directly panel-mounted using M4, M5, M6, or UNC #6 screws in the provided fastening holes. The BMEXBP1200 is also compatible with Telequick Grid AM1-PA and AM3-PA mounting grids.

FAQs

  • What is BMEXBP1200 ?

    +
    The Schneider Electric BMEXBP1200 is a 12-slot Ethernet backplane from the Modicon X80 range, designed for M580 and M340 Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs).
  • Can I install Ethernet communication modules in slot 2?

    +
    No. This is a frequent configuration confusion. Slot 2 is a design-limited slot that only supports X-bus and cannot accept Ethernet communication modules. You must install Ethernet communication modules in slots that support Ethernet and X-bus (slots other than slot 2).
  • What is the power requirement for the backplane?

    +
    The BMEXBP1200 uses a DC 24V power supply (typically with a -15% to +20% tolerance). It has an internal power consumption of 3.9 W at 24 V DC and 283 mW at 3.3 V DC
  • Can the BMEXBP1200 be expanded or scaled?

    +
    Yes. It features 1 connector for an XBE expansion module, making it highly scalable and flexible for adding additional modules or racks as your system requirements grow over time.
