AS-Interface Slave for the Control Cabinet
The Siemens 3RK2400-1FG01-0AA1 is an AS-Interface control cabinet module configured as an A/B slave. It provides 4 digital inputs and 3 digital outputs in a compact IP20 housing designed for DIN-rail mounting inside an enclosure. The output stage is rated for 2 A per channel, with the module drawing up to 30 mA from the AS-Interface bus for its own logic supply. This means the outputs can drive small solenoid valves, indicator lamps, or contactor coils directly without an interposing relay — but stay within the 2 A limit per point and account for the total bus current budget. Rated for 15 g shock over 11 ms, the module holds up in applications with moderate vibration, such as conveyor transfer stations or packaging machinery mounted near the line. It is not rated for continuous high-G environments like a press die cushion.
