Two digital outputs for ET 200S, rated 2 A per channel
The Siemens 6ES7132-4BB30-0AA0 is a SIMATIC DP electronic module for the ET 200S distributed I/O system, providing two digital outputs rated at 24 V DC and 2 A per channel in a compact 15 mm wide housing. The 2 A rated value per output means it directly drives contactors, solenoid valves, and small motor starters without an intermediate relay; it can also control a digital input for feedback or interlocking. Switching performance covers 100 Hz on resistive loads and 2 Hz on inductive loads up to 0.5 H; lamp loads are limited to 10 Hz. The response threshold sits between 2.8 and 7.2 A, ensuring the output trips reliably on an overcurrent condition at the channel level.
Fit and mounting in a distributed panel
Address space is 1 byte per module. Reverse polarity and reverse voltage protection are built in when using the same load voltage as the power module, which protects against wiring errors during commissioning. Isolation tested at 500 V DC between channels and the backplane bus – no channel-to-channel isolation (listed as 'Between The Channels: No'), so ensure load commons are properly shared.
Because it is standard ET 200S hardware, compatibility with existing base units and bus terminals is assured – no re-wiring or footprint change when swapping in a maintenance spare.
