8 transistor outputs at 0.5 A per channel
The Siemens 6AG1132-4BF50-7AA0 is an ET 200S digital output module delivering 8 transistor outputs, each rated at 0.5 A continuous with a permissible range of 5 mA to 600 mA per channel for signal "1". Total module current is limited to 4 A, so the 8 channels share a 4 A ceiling — if you load all channels at 0.5 A you hit the module limit, not the per-channel limit.
Switching performance and load types
Resistive load switching maxes at 100 Hz; inductive loads drop to 0.5 Hz, and lamp loads to 10 Hz — the transistor output is sized for solenoid and indicator duty, not high-speed pulse trains. Signal transition times are 300 µs for 0→1 and 600 µs for 1→0, which keeps the module compatible with standard PLC scan cycles without missing edges.
The module occupies a 15 mm wide slot on the ET 200S terminal block rail, with a depth of 52 mm and height of 81 mm — it fits the standard ET 200S mounting footprint without overhang. Typical power loss is 1.5 W, so heat dissipation in a densely populated IP20 cabinet stays manageable without forced airflow at moderate ambient temperatures.
