Siemens 6ES7590-1AC40-0AA0 Mounting Rail

This mounting rail provides the mechanical foundation for SIMATIC S7-1500 automation systems. It supports all S7-1500 modules, including CPUs, power supplies, signal modules, and communication processors. The 245 mm length accommodates a wide range of system configurations for industrial control applications.

Mechanical Design and Rail Specifications

The Siemens 6ES7590-1AC40-0AA0 features a 245 mm total length with a 225 mm usable section for module installation. A robust aluminum construction ensures excellent mechanical stability and grounding properties. The rail includes a 2.2 mm notch for secure module attachment and reliable electrical contact. Mounting holes at both ends simplify installation on the back panel of control cabinets.

Technical Specifications

Installation and System Integration

The rail accepts all S7-1500 modules, including the 40-pin I/O modules. It supports a maximum number of modules depending on their individual widths. The horizontal or vertical mounting option offers flexibility for cabinet layout optimization. Installation requires only standard screws and a screwdriver for quick assembly. The rail’s grounding function provides a reliable earth connection for all attached modules.

Application Use and Assembly Tips

Mounting rails serve as the backbone of S7-1500 control cabinets in industrial plants. They provide a clean and organized structure for system components. Proper rail selection ensures the correct number and arrangement of modules. The 245 mm length works well for small to medium control systems. Consider using multiple rails for large-scale systems with extensive I/O requirements. A level rail installation prevents mechanical stress on the modules and connectors.
