Product Description

A Siemens Output Module (Digital Output or Analog Output) acts as the control interface between the automation system’s Processor Module and the final control elements in the field (actuators, indicators, valves). It translates the processor’s logical commands into physical electrical signals.

• Digital Output (DO) Modules receive a digital command (1 or 0) from the CPU and switch an external electrical power source ON or OFF to control discrete devices like solenoids, contactors, or indicator lights.

• Analog Output (AO) Modules receive a digital value from the CPU and convert it into a continuous electrical signal (e.g., $4text{-}20text{mA}$ current or $0text{-}10text{V}$ voltage) to proportionally control devices like variable speed drives or control valves.

These modules are designed to handle the power requirements of industrial loads while protecting the sensitive electronics of the control system.

Product Parameters

The specifications define the type of power the output module can switch and the precision of the output signal:

Product Advantages

• Robust Load Handling: Modules are designed with robust components (high-rated relays/transistors) to reliably switch inductive and resistive industrial loads over millions of cycles.

• Integrated Diagnostics: Advanced features include output wire-break detection, overload protection reporting, and fuse status monitoring to pinpoint field faults quickly.

• Flexible Output Technology: Availability of transistor outputs for high-frequency pulsing (e.g., Pulse Width Modulation) and relay outputs for high current and versatile voltage switching.

• Channel Isolation: Many modules offer isolation between channels or channel groups, preventing faults on one output from affecting others.

• Fast Response: Low output delays, particularly for transistor outputs, ensure that the actuator responds quickly and accurately to the CPU’s commands.

Important Precautions

• Verify Load Type: Do not exceed the module’s specified current rating for the specific load type (e.g., the inrush current of a motor starter may require a higher rating than the steady-state current).

• Inductive Load Suppression: When switching inductive loads (solenoids, contactors), install appropriate suppression devices (e.g., diodes for DC, RC suppressors for AC) across the load to protect the output module from voltage spikes.

• External Fusing: While some modules have internal protection, it is often required or recommended to use external fuses for each output group to protect the wiring and comply with safety standards.

• Voltage Separation: Ensure that output voltages that are critical or of different voltage levels (e.g., 24V DC and 230V AC) are physically separated and connected to modules rated for those specific voltages.

• Analog Wiring: Use dedicated, low-resistance wiring and pay close attention to the common ground connections for Analog Output modules to maintain signal accuracy.

Product Applications

Output Modules are the essential link for controlling all automated physical actions:

• Actuating Discrete Devices: Controlling the state of pneumatic/hydraulic solenoid valves, motor contactors, and signaling devices (beacons, horns).

• Proportional Control: Driving Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) or proportional control valves using analog outputs to finely adjust motor speed or fluid flow.

• Heating and Cooling: Controlling heaters, chillers, and fans in process control applications using both digital and analog signals.

• Dispensing and Dosing: Precisely controlling pump speeds or metering valves in packaging and food & beverage applications.

• Machine Operation: Directly controlling clutches, brakes, and other mechanisms requiring direct electrical switching.
