• Modular, distributed I/O system with compact I/O modules in IP65/67.
• Especially easy and flexible installation, even in extremely confined spaces.
• Easy wiring
• Easy commissioning
• SIMATIC ET 200AL consists of the following components:
  • Interface module for communication with IO Controllers on PROFINET.
  • Interface module for communication with all masters on the PROFIBUS.
  • Bus adapters for connection to the ET 200SP I/O system.
  • Various I/O modules, 30 mm and 45 mm wide.
• Maximum configuration of an ET 200AL station:
  • Up to 32 I/O modules with PROFINET or PROFIBUS in any combination
  • Up to 16 I/O modules at the ET 200SP in any combination
• Connection of the modules via an internal backplane bus established using bus cables (ET connection).

Highlights
