About the Siemens 6ES7421-1EL00-0AA0

The Siemens 6ES7421-1EL00-0AA0 is the 120 V version of the 32-channel SM 421: it reads AC or DC signals at 120 V where the 6ES7421-1BL01-0AA0 reads 24 V DC. Siemens's data sheet gives signal "1" at 79 to 132 V AC or 80 to 132 V DC, 2 to 5 mA input current, isolation in groups of 8 and 6.5 W typical power loss. SiePortal shows its phase-out announced on 1 October 2025 and its product cancellation on 1 October 2026.

What is the 6ES7421-1EL00-0AA0 used for?

It reads 120 V AC or DC signals from switches and contacts into an S7-400 CPU.

Lifecycle and successor

Discontinued.

Before you order

What to photograph or confirm so the right unit is quoted.
