The compact Simatic ET 200MP failsafe I/O modules are designed to simplify S7 1500 controller distributed configuration. The F-DI 16x24 Vdc ProfiSafe and F-DQ 8x24 Vdc/2-A PPM ProfiSafe modules support the “no dip” concept, eliminating the need to assign ProfiSafe addresses via a DIP switch. Each module comes with a standard Code Element Type F Plug. Featuring low parts variance, the 35-mm-wide modules help to simplify mounting, ordering, logistics and inventory management with a uniform front connector. Channel-specific diagnostics enable fast and clear process error identification and reduce plant standstills. The modules also offer mechanical slot coding to ensure proper module and front connectors.
