Product details

Thermocouple input module for S7-1200

The Siemens 6ES7231-5QD32-0XB0 is an SM 1231 TC analog input module for the S7-1200 controller family. It accepts eight thermocouple inputs across types J, K, T, E, R, S, N, and C, with a voltage range of ±80 mV per the datasheet. The module is parameterizable — you configure the thermocouple type, wire-break detection, and diagnostic alarms per channel in the TIA Portal hardware config.

Operating environment and approvals

The 24 V DC supply draws a typical 1.5 W — negligible thermal load inside a crowded enclosure. Dimensions are 45 mm wide by 100 mm high by 75 mm deep, fitting the standard S7-1200 DIN-rail footprint with no extra clearance needed on the sides. Carries CE, cULus, UL, CSA, FM, KC, and marine approvals — covers most industrial and marine classification society requirements without a separate certification run.

Frequently asked questions

What thermocouple types does 6ES7231-5QD32-0XB0 support?

Supports types J, K, T, E, R, S, N, and C, with a voltage range of ±80 mV. The thermocouple type is parameterizable per channel.
