Description

Product Overview

The Siemens 6ES7460-0AA01-0AB0 is a Send IM 460-0 interface module for SIMATIC S7-400 systems, designed for central coupling without power supply transfer. It includes C-bus capability for connecting expansion racks. Weighing approximately 600 g, this module draws a maximum of 140 mA from the 5 V DC backplane bus and supports cable lengths up to 5 meters between the first and last interface module.

Technical Configuration

This module operates as the sending interface in a central coupling configuration, paired with a receiving IM 461-0 module in the expansion rack. The maximum cable length between the first and last interface module is 5 meters. A termination plug (6ES7461-0AA0-7AA0) is required for proper bus termination. The module fits into UR1, UR2, and CR2 central racks and provides two front connectors for expansion strand connections.

Installation Guide

Insert the Send IM 460-0 into a compatible S7-400 central rack slot (UR1, UR2, or CR2). Connect the expansion cable to the front connectors, ensuring total cable length does not exceed 5 meters between the first and last interface module. Install the termination plug (6ES7461-0AA0-7AA0) at the final receiving module to maintain proper bus termination. Verify the receiving IM 461-0 is installed in the expansion rack before powering up the system.

Engineering Advantages

This module enables central rack expansion without transferring the power supply, simplifying cabinet layout and reducing wiring complexity. The integrated C-bus supports communication between the central controller and expansion racks. The 5-meter cable limit ensures signal integrity for short-distance coupling. Low power consumption of 140 mA and 700 mW power loss minimize thermal load in the control cabinet. The compact 25 mm width preserves rack space for additional I/O modules.
