Overview
The 6ES7142-1BD22-0XB0 is a Siemens Unclassified module with 5 poles, housing 4 digital outputs rated at 24 VDC and drawing 4.0 W. It carries a PROFIBUS DP slave interface capable of 12 Mbit/s and is enclosed to IP66. This part reached its end-of-lifecycle on 01/10/19 and is no longer in active production.
Applications
Given its IP66 rating, this module is suited for distributed I/O installations in harsh environments where dust and water ingress are concerns — for example, on conveyor sections, washdown zones, or outdoor material-handling stations. The 4 digital outputs switch solenoids, indicator lamps, or small contactors directly, while the PROFIBUS DP link ties the remote station back to a central PLC over a deterministic fieldbus.
Lifecycle & availability
Siemens declared this module end-of-life effective 01/10/19. It is no longer in active production and is not available through standard distribution channels. Buyers sourcing this part should expect to find it only on the surplus or broker market. No official successor part number is listed in the lifecycle record; for a current-production alternative, evaluate the 6ES7142-4BD00-0AA0, which shares the same output count and form factor but differs in output current rating and power consumption.
