Hallo NickeNyfiken not too sure what your reasons are for questioning the suitability of the PM 6ES7138-4CA50-0AB0. Assuming that the Safety Inputs and Outputs are of "F" type (F-DI and F-DQ), it is a perfect choice as a PM in a Safety related ET200S stationas far as I'm concerned . I wonder if confusion arises because therearealsoSafety PM's available (PM-E F). These however are used with Standard DQ cards and can be a suitable (cheaper) alternative. They do have a few "watch out" associated with them though (e.g you always "kill" all DQ's associated with the PM-E F, you still need F-DI's,you may need additional safety measures etc.) and I personally would not use them if I can help it. Anyway, you find moreuseful info in the manual below and I hope this helps. SIMATIC Distributed I/O System Fail-Safe Engineering ET 200S Distributed I/O System - Fail-Safe Modules |
