6VA6641-0CA01-0AX1 SIEMENS Central control module

Siemens Digital Output Modules Overview

Siemens offers a variety of digital output modules as part of its SIMATIC family of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). These modules are used to convert the PLC's control signals into digital output signals for external devices such as control valves, contactors, indicator lights, motor starters, and more.

Product Detailed Description

• Function:

• Receives digital signals from the PLC controller.

• Converts these digital signals into switching signals for external devices (e.g., 24V DC output, 230V AC output, relay output).

• Provides outputs with different voltages, currents, and contact types to suit the needs of various external devices.

• Some modules have diagnostic functions that can detect and report faults in the output circuits (e.g., short circuit, wire break).

• Optocoupler isolation is used to isolate the PLC's internal circuits from the external load circuits, improving the system's resistance to interference and safety.

• Features:

• Various output types (transistor, relay, triac).

• Different number of channels (e.g., 8-channel, 16-channel, 32-channel).

• Pluggable terminals for easy wiring and replacement.

• Compact design to save control cabinet space.

• Integrated status indicators for easy diagnostics.

• Suitable for various SIMATIC PLC systems.
