Product Details
Modicon AS-003B-104 is a sturdy modular relay and reliable control relay unit designed for legacy Modicon automation cabinets. This legacy relay part receives low-level control signals from PLC I/O modules and switches heavier load circuits for valves, motors, indicators and auxiliary contactors. It adopts compact modular construction for neat installation inside control panels and provides electrical isolation between the low-voltage control side and high-power load side, protecting PLC cards from surge and back EMF damage. As a discontinued spare, this modular relay is widely used for direct replacement of aged or burnt-out relay components, allowing old automation racks to maintain safe and reliable logic switching without full cabinet reconstruction.

Supported Functions
This modular relay supports signal amplification and electrical isolation between PLC logic signals and field loads. The control relay unit executes on-off switching triggered by automation logic and provides auxiliary contact feedback for interlock and alarm circuits. This legacy relay part can be cascaded with other protection components and supports fast replacement during on-site maintenance to cut downtime.
Core Functions
As a key control relay unit, this modular relay converts weak PLC drive signals into reliable switching action for heavy field loads. Its isolated contacts separate control and power circuits to suppress electrical noise and back-surge. This legacy relay part serves as a drop-in replacement to restore safe load switching for ageing Modicon automation racks.
