Installation Guidelines

CRITICAL WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

Disconnect all power sources and follow Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) procedures before installation, removal, or wiring. All work must be performed by qualified personnel familiar with industrial control equipment standards and safety practices.

  1. 1 Pre-Installation Check: Verify the module part number 6ES7355-2CH00-0AE0 matches the project requirements. Inspect the module for any signs of shipping damage before proceeding.
  2. 2 Mounting: Securely mount the module onto the S7-300 backplane bus or DIN rail assembly. Ensure the module is properly seated and the locking mechanism is engaged to guarantee a reliable connection to the bus interface.
  3. 3 Grounding: Connect the chassis ground terminal to the main panel ground bus using a low-impedance conductor. A proper ground connection is essential for noise immunity and safety.
  4. 4 Wiring: Connect sensor (AI) and control (AO/DI) wiring to the front connector. Use shielded, twisted-pair cabling for all analog signals to minimize electromagnetic interference. Land shield drains at the module end only to prevent ground loops.
  5. 5 Power-Up and Commissioning: After verifying all connections, remove the LOTO device and apply power to the system. Use the provided configuration software to set up control loops, scale I/O, and commission the module according to process requirements.
