Siemens G26004-A3118-P200 DE/DA Module

This DE/DA module handles digital input and analog output signals for industrial systems. It integrates seamlessly into Siemens automation racks for signal conversion tasks. Therefore, this component bridges field devices and the central controller effectively.

Physical Dimensions and Weight Specifications

The Siemens G26004-A3118-P200 features a standard Eurocard form factor. Its board dimensions measure 100 mm in height and 160 mm in depth. The module weighs approximately 0.35 kg for easy handling. Consequently, technicians can install this unit without special mounting tools.

Interface Types and Connector Configuration

The Siemens G26004-A3118-P200 provides a 48-pin front connector for field wiring. A second 20-pin backplane connector supplies power and data buses. The front panel carries LED indicators for each active channel. Hence, operators can monitor signal status at a quick glance.

Component Count and Channel Allocation

This module contains one main printed circuit board with multilayer routing. The board holds 16 digital input channels for 24V DC signals. You will also find 4 analog output channels for 0-10V or 4-20mA. An onboard optocoupler array isolates each digital input from the backplane.

Energy Storage and Power Consumption

The Siemens G26004-A3118-P200 draws 150 mA from the 5V backplane supply. It also requires 80 mA from the 24V external supply for analog circuits. A small capacitor bank stores energy for output hold-up during brief interruptions. This storage lasts approximately 10 milliseconds under full load.

Signal Processing and Conversion Speed

The module scans all digital inputs within a 2 ms cycle time. It updates analog output values every 5 ms for smooth control loops. Users can configure each analog channel independently via software. This flexibility supports mixed signal types within a single module.
