Siemens SIMATIC S7-200 SMART High-Density Analog Input Module About

The Siemens 6ES7288-3AE08-0AA0 is an active, compact SIMATIC S7-200 SMART analog input expansion module (SM AI08). It is engineered to capture multiple complex process variables in small-to-medium industrial automation networks. Doubling the channel capacity of standard variants, this module expands your PLC configuration by adding eight analog inputs with high-precision 11-bit plus sign resolution (12-bit ADC architecture).Designed for versatile field instrumentation deployment, the individual differential channels can be custom configured in pairs. They read standard industrial signals, including voltage (10V, 5V, 2.5V, 010V, 05V) or current (020 mA, 420 mA). Housed in a dense, IP20-protected enclosure meant for standard DIN rail layouts, it runs efficiently with a typical 2W power loss. The expansion block incorporates advanced noise-rejection frequencies, channel-smoothing parameters, and front-facing diagnostic status LEDs for streamlined sensor loop maintenance.
