NEW 6ES7336-4GE00-0AB0

Key Features & Specifications:

• Channel Configuration: Integrates 8 analog input channels and 8 analog output channels in a single module, providing a high-density solution for systems needing comprehensive analog monitoring and control.
• Supported Signals:
  • Inputs: Compatible with standard industrial analog signals, including voltage (0-10 V, ±5 V) and current (0-20 mA, 4-20 mA), enabling measurement of variables such as temperature, pressure, flow, or level from sensors, transmitters, or transducers.
  • Outputs: Supports voltage (0-10 V, ±5 V) and current (0-20 mA, 4-20 mA) signals, allowing precise control of actuators like control valves, variable-speed drives, proportional regulators, or analog indicators.
• Accuracy & Resolution: Features 16-bit resolution for both inputs and outputs, ensuring high precision for critical applications where tight control over signal variations is required (e.g., process regulation with small tolerance ranges).
• Isolation: Incorporates robust channel-to-channel and channel-to-backplane isolation (250 V AC), protecting the module and connected S7-300 PLC from electrical noise, ground loops, and voltage spikes common in industrial environments with multiple connected devices.
• Diagnostic Capabilities: Equipped with advanced diagnostics to detect faults such as wire breaks, short circuits, over/under-range signals, or output drift. Diagnostic data is transmitted to the PLC via the backplane bus, enabling real-time monitoring and rapid troubleshooting.
• Status Indicators: Channel-specific LEDs (e.g., “Active,” “Fault”) and module-level LEDs (power/operation status) provide clear visual feedback, simplifying on-site maintenance and system health checks.

Integration & Compatibility:

• Wiring: Uses a 64-pin front connector (with screw or spring-loaded terminals) for secure, vibration-resistant connections to sensors, actuators, and power supplies, ensuring stable signal transmission in harsh industrial settings.
• System Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with all SIMATIC S7-300 CPUs (e.g., 312, 314, 315, 317, 319) via the backplane bus. Configurable through Siemens TIA Portal (or legacy STEP 7 software) to define input/output ranges, signal types, and diagnostic parameters.

Industrial Durability:

• Operates reliably in demanding environments with an operating temperature range of 0°C to 60°C.
• Complies with international standards (e.g., CE, UL, IEC 61131-2) for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), vibration, and shock resistance, ensuring consistent performance in factory floors, process plants, and heavy machinery applications.

Applications:

• Complex process control systems (e.g., chemical, pharmaceutical, or water treatment plants) for monitoring multiple variables (pressure, flow, level) and controlling corresponding actuators like valves or pumps.
• Manufacturing lines with extensive analog control needs (e.g., automotive assembly, packaging) for regulating speeds, temperatures, or positioning of machinery.
• Energy management systems (e.g., power generation, distribution) for acquiring analog data from sensors and controlling equipment like turbines or transformers.
