2 A rated current per channel
Each channel supports a rated output current of 2 A, with a maximum total output current of 8 A per module under specified operating conditions.
Integrated diagnostic functions
Module-level diagnostics help identify conditions such as supply voltage problems, short circuits, and wire breaks, supporting more efficient troubleshooting.
Configurable substitute values
Substitute output values can be configured for individual channels to define output behavior under specified fault or operating conditions.
Flexible engineering integration
The module can be configured using STEP 7 (TIA Portal) or a suitable GSD configuration file, making it convenient to integrate into ET 200SP automation projects.
Technical FAQs
Q1: What is the function of the Siemens 6ES7132-6BD20-0BA0?
