Lifecycle status may vary by exact catalogue number, hardware series and market. Confirm the precise reference with the manufacturer before relying on any deadline.

Successors and migration considerations

  • Modicon Premium (TSX): Modicon M580 / Modicon X80 I/O (se.com names e.g. BMXART0414 for TSXAEY414)
  • Modicon Quantum (140): Modicon M580 (Quantum Ethernet I/O / X80)

Migration is an engineering assessment, not an automatic drop-in substitution. Check program conversion, field wiring, communications, safety and commissioning requirements.

Inventory changes as items are sold and new consignments arrive, so we do not publish fixed quantities or condition claims on these reference guides.

Questions engineers ask

Does discontinued mean an installed controller must be replaced immediately?

No. It means the product's commercial lifecycle has changed, not that every installed unit has stopped functioning. Review spares availability, reliability, risk and your maintenance strategy.

Can Automation Outlet help source a legacy spare?

Yes. Send us the exact manufacturer part number, revision or series, quantity and required condition. Availability and testing status must be confirmed before an order.

Can a listed successor be swapped directly into my system?

Not necessarily. Replacement can require changes to software, wiring, communications, safety assessments and commissioning. Confirm compatibility with manufacturer documentation.
