About the Siemens 6ES7422-1BH11-0AA0
The Siemens 6ES7422-1BH11-0AA0 is the high-current SM 422: 16 outputs at 2 A each, where the 6ES7422-1BL00-0AA0 has 32 outputs at 0.5 A. Siemens's data sheet gives a 24 V DC load voltage (20.4 to 28.8 V), clocked electronic short-circuit protection, isolation in groups of 8 and 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 6ES7422-1BH11-0AA0 used for?
It switches 24 V DC loads of up to 2 A, such as valves, contactor coils and lamps, from an S7-400 CPU.
Lifecycle and successor
Discontinued.
