NEW 6ES7322-5HF00-0AB0

Key Features & Specifications:

• Channel Configuration: Equipped with 8 fail-safe digital output channels, optimized for controlling safety-critical devices in compact safety systems.
• Output Characteristics:
  • Uses relay outputs with forced-guided contacts (a safety design ensuring contacts cannot remain in an undefined state, preventing dangerous failures).
  • Supports a wide voltage range: 24 V DC, 120 V AC, and 230 V AC, enabling flexible control of both low-voltage DC and higher-voltage AC safety devices.
  • Maximum current per channel: 2 A (resistive load), with a total module current limit of 8 A (across all channels), suitable for medium-power safety components like contactors or solenoid valves.
• Safety Certification: Complies with international safety standards, including EN 61508 (SIL 2/3) and EN ISO 13849-1 (PL d/e), ensuring it meets rigorous requirements for safety-related control systems.
• Diagnostic Capabilities: Integrates advanced diagnostics to detect faults such as contact welding, wire breaks, or overcurrent conditions. Diagnostic data is transmitted to the S7-300F CPU (fail-safe CPU) for real-time monitoring, enabling quick fault resolution and maintaining system safety integrity.
• Status Indicators: Channel-specific LEDs indicate output activation (ON/OFF) and fault status, while module-level LEDs confirm power supply and safety system health, simplifying troubleshooting in safety-critical setups.
• Connection & Integration:
  • Uses a 20-pin front connector with screw terminals, ensuring secure, vibration-resistant wiring for safety-critical connections in industrial environments.
  • Seamlessly integrates with SIMATIC S7-300F fail-safe CPUs (e.g., 315F-2 PN/DP) via the backplane bus, enabling communication within a safety-related control loop (SIL/PL compliant).
• Industrial Durability:
  • Built to withstand harsh operating conditions, with an operating temperature range of 0°C to 60°C.
  • Complies with standards for electromagnetic interference (EMC), vibration, and shock (e.g., IEC 61131-2), ensuring reliable performance in factory floors, process plants, or machinery with safety-critical functions.

Compatibility:

• Exclusively designed for use with SIMATIC S7-300F fail-safe PLC systems, working in tandem with S7-300F CPUs to implement safety-related control logic.
• Compatible with safety-critical devices such as emergency stop relays, safety gate interlocks, or shutdown valves, supporting both DC (24 V) and AC (120/230 V) powered equipment.

Applications:

• Controlling emergency stop circuits in manufacturing lines.
• Monitoring and activating safety gate interlocks in machinery.
• Managing shutdown valves or brakes in process plants where hazardous conditions must be prevented.
