NEW 6ES7214-1AG40-0XB0

Key Features & Specifications:

• Digital I/O Configuration: Equipped with 14 digital inputs and 10 digital outputs (24 total I/O points) to interface with a wide range of industrial sensors and actuators:
  • Inputs: 24 V DC (sinking/sourcing) with fast response times, compatible with devices like limit switches, photoelectric sensors, proximity detectors, or encoder signals.
  • Outputs: Relay-type, supporting both AC (up to 250 V AC) and DC (up to 30 V DC) loads. This versatility enables control of diverse equipment such as contactors, solenoid valves, AC motors, heaters, or DC-powered actuators.
• Processing Capability: Features a high-performance microprocessor optimized for complex logic operations, timer/counter functions, arithmetic tasks, and basic sequence control. It delivers fast instruction execution (e.g., basic logic in ~0.15 µs), ensuring responsive and precise control in time-critical medium-scale processes.
• Memory: Includes 16 KB of program memory (for storing user logic) and 10 KB of data memory (for variables, timers, counters, and temporary data), providing ample capacity for medium-sized automation tasks with room for program expansion and data logging.
• Communication: Integrates a built-in PROFINET interface (Ethernet port) to support industrial Ethernet communication. This enables seamless connection to HMI panels (e.g., SIMATIC HMI SMART Line), programming devices, or other PROFINET-enabled equipment, facilitating network integration, remote monitoring, and data exchange.
• Expandability: Supports up to 6 expansion modules (e.g., additional digital I/O, analog I/O, communication modules, or positioning modules), allowing users to scale I/O capacity or add specialized functions (such as analog control or motion positioning) as application needs evolve.

Integration & Compatibility:

• Power Supply: Operates on AC 100-240 V, making it suitable for integration into standard industrial electrical systems with alternating current power sources, common in factory and process environments.
• Programming: Configured and programmed using Siemens’ TIA Portal software (version V13 and later), which offers an intuitive environment for ladder logic, structured text, or function block diagram programming, simplifying setup, debugging, and maintenance.
• Mounting: Designed for DIN rail mounting, fitting compactly into control cabinets alongside other industrial components, optimizing space in tight enclosures.

Industrial Durability:

• Withstands harsh industrial conditions, including an operating temperature range of 0°C to 60°C, and compliance with EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) standards. This ensures reliable performance in factory floors, machine enclosures, or environments with electrical noise and vibration.

Applications:

• Control of complex machinery with diverse actuators (e.g., automated assembly lines, packaging systems, or material handling equipment with multiple sensors and mixed AC/DC devices).
• Process control in production cells where coordination of AC-powered equipment (e.g., heaters, large pumps) and DC devices (e.g., solenoids, small motors) is critical.
• Scalable systems needing future expansion, such as retrofitted lines or growing small-scale setups requiring additional I/O or specialized modules.
