Installation Guidelines

1. 1 De-energize System: Before installation, completely de-energize the control panel and apply Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) procedures to all incoming power sources. Verify the absence of voltage with a calibrated meter.
2. 2 Mount Module: Securely mount the 6ES7138-7EC00-0AA0 module onto the designated ET 200iSP terminal block or backplane. Ensure all locking mechanisms are fully engaged to establish a reliable backplane connection.
3. 3 Connect AC Power: Connect the 120/230 V AC line, neutral, and protective earth (PE) conductors to the designated terminals on the module. Use appropriately sized conductors and ensure terminations are torqued to the manufacturer's specification.
4. 4 Verify Grounding: Confirm a low-impedance connection from the module's PE terminal to the main system ground bus. Proper grounding is critical for both safety and noise immunity in intrinsically safe circuits.
5. 5 Final Inspection: Before re-energizing, inspect all wiring for correct polarity, secure connections, and proper dress. Ensure the enclosure integrity is maintained to preserve the Ex rating. Remove LOTO devices and apply power according to site procedures.
