This digital input module acquires 24 VDC signals from field devices for Siemens ET 200X distributed I/O systems. It monitors pushbuttons, limit switches, and proximity sensors in industrial automation applications. The module’s IP65/IP67 housing suits harsh environments requiring protection against dust and moisture.
Input Configuration and Electrical Specifications
The Siemens 6ES7141-4BF00-0AB0 features four digital inputs, each with a nominal voltage of 24 VDC. Each channel delivers a typical input current of 7 mA and features a voltage protection mechanism. The module provides a reverse polarity protection on all input signals for robust field connectivity. It draws a maximum current of 35 mA from the 24 VDC power supply. The module also consumes 25 mA from the internal 5 VDC backplane bus for its operation.
