Siemens 6ES7226-6BA32-0XB0 Programmable Logic Controller CPU Module

Siemens 6ES7226-6BA32-0XB0 is a 16-channel digital input module for SIMATIC ET 200S/SIMATIC S7-1200 systems, offering 16 independent inputs that accept 24 V DC signals. Housed in a plastic enclosure with a 70 mm overall width, it connects to the ET 200S I/O bus to extend digital input capabilities in compact automation installations. The module is specified as F-DI 16X 24 V DC and supports PROFIsafe, providing safety-integrated I/O with performance up to PL E (ISO 13849-1) and SIL 3 (IEC 61508) depending on system configuration. This makes it suitable for monitoring field devices such as sensors and limit switches on small to medium-sized automation tasks, including conveyors, packaging lines, and machine control panels where 24 V DC signals are used. As part of the SIMATIC ecosystem, it integrates with S7-1200 controllers and is designed for use in distributed I/O networks to extend input capacity without adding a CPU module.
