6ES7131 4BD01 0AA0 is a digital input module designed to be integrated into the SIMATIC ET 200SP system. It operates with a voltage range of 24V DC and has four inputs, which are electrically isolated from each other. This wiring diagram will provide you with the necessary instructions to connect the module correctly and safely.
Wiring Instructions
Before starting the wiring process, it is essential to ensure that the power is turned off. This will prevent any accidents or module damage from happening. Follow the steps below carefully:
Step 1: Preparing the Wires
Prepare the wires that will be used in the wiring process. The recommended wire size for this module is 0.25-2.5mm². Strip off about 7mm of insulation from the wire ends using wire strippers or scissors.
Step 2: Connecting the Power Supply
The module requires an external power supply of 24V DC. Connect the positive and negative wires from the power supply to the terminal blocks marked “+24V” and “0V” respectively. Tighten the screws using a screwdriver to ensure a secure connection.
Step 3: Connecting the Digital Inputs
Connect the wires from the sensors or switches to the four input channels on the module. The inputs have two terminals each, marked “I” and “0V”. Connect the wire ends to the “I” terminals and tighten the screws. Ensure that the wires are connected to the correct terminals to prevent any errors.
It is important to note that the module’s inputs are electrically isolated from each other. This means that each input has its isolated power supply and ground, ensuring that no interference occurs.
Step 4: Verifying the Connections
After completing the wiring process, ensure that all connections are secure and tight. Check the module’s LED status indicators to confirm that the power is on and the inputs are functioning correctly. The green LED indicates that the module is powered, while the red LED indicates input status.
You can perform a functional test by simulating the sensors or switches connected to the module. This can be achieved by using a simulation device, such as a multimeter or signal generator, to generate input signals.
Step 5: Commissioning the Module
Once you have verified that the module is functioning correctly, you can commission it. This involves configuring the module’s parameters, such as input type and filter settings, using the TIA Portal software. The software provides a user-friendly interface for configuring the module quickly and efficiently.
