Digital Output Module – Siemens 6ES7132-6BF01-0BA0 for ET 200S, 4x24V DC/0.5A

The Siemens 6ES7132-6BF01-0BA0 is a compact and highly reliable digital output module designed for the SIMATIC ET 200S distributed I/O system. This module provides four electrically isolated output channels, each capable of switching loads up to 24V DC at 0.5A. It serves as a critical interface between your PLC controller and field devices, allowing you to control actuators such as solenoid valves, contactors, relays, and indicator lamps directly from your automation program. Designed for easy installation on a standard ET 200S terminal module and communicating via PROFIBUS DP, this module is an essential building block for creating flexible, decentralized control architectures in industrial environments.

Key Features and Benefits of this Digital Output Module:

High-Density Output Configuration: This digital output module offers four independent output channels on a single, compact module, maximizing space efficiency in your control cabinet and reducing the need for additional hardware. Learn more about the Siemens ET 200S system architecture.
Robust 24V DC Switching: Each output can switch a 24V DC load with a current rating of 0.5A, making it suitable for a wide range of standard industrial actuators and devices without requiring intermediate amplifiers.
Electrical Isolation and Diagnostics: The channels are electrically isolated from the bus and from each other, enhancing system safety and stability. It also features diagnostic capabilities like short-circuit protection and wire-break monitoring, which can be reported back to the central PLC.
Seamless PROFIBUS DP Integration: As part of the ET 200S family, this module integrates effortlessly into PROFIBUS DP networks, acting as a slave device to Siemens S7-300/400 or other PROFIBUS master controllers for centralized data exchange.
Modular and Scalable Design: The ET 200S system allows you to mix and match different I/O modules (digital, analog, special function) on the same station, providing ultimate flexibility to tailor the I/O configuration to your exact application needs.
