Siemens 6ES7132-6BH01-0BA0 – SIMATIC ET 200SP Digital Output Module for 24 V DC Systems

The Siemens 6ES7132-6BH01-0BA0 is a SIMATIC ET 200SP digital output slice that fits neatly into compact distributed I/O stations. It’s designed for standard 24 V DC applications where you need reliable, fast, and clearly diagnosed switching of field loads. From my experience, this module is a solid choice for machine builders and plant upgrades because it clips onto the ET 200SP BaseUnit in seconds and plays nicely with PROFINET or PROFIBUS via the station’s interface module.

Our Order Placement Process and Guarantees

• Warranty: 365 days
• Delivery: 1 week if in stock; no more than one month at the latest
• Payment: 50% advance payment; full payment before delivery
• Express options: FedEx, UPS, DHL

Key Features

• 8-channel 24 V DC digital outputs – Typical PNP (sourcing) outputs for general-purpose actuators, relays, and solenoid valves.
• ET 200SP form factor – Slim slice (typically 15 mm width) helps reduce cabinet footprint without sacrificing channel count.
• Integrated diagnostics – Channel/group diagnostics for short-circuit/overload make troubleshooting much faster in many cases.
• Tool-free handling – Clicks into the ET 200SP BaseUnit; labeling strips keep wiring tidy and traceable.
• Backplane powered – No separate field power feed on the module; supply comes through the ET 200SP station.
• Flexible system integration – Works under the ET 200SP interface modules for PROFINET or PROFIBUS, depending on your head module.
• TIA Portal engineering – Parameterization and diagnostics through the standard Siemens toolchain.

Technical Specifications

Recommended Accessories & Supporting Components

• ET 200SP Interface Module (IM 155-6 series) for PROFINET or PROFIBUS connectivity.
• ET 200SP BaseUnit (BU Type A0 or equivalent) for mounting and field wiring.
• Labeling strips and color-coded module covers to keep channel assignment clear.
• Potential distribution modules for neat 24 V DC and M (0 V) wiring when channel counts grow.

One thing I appreciate is how the BaseUnit concept keeps rewiring to a minimum. A maintenance engineer told us they swapped this output module in under five minutes during a packaging line changeover—no rewiring, just release the latch, swap, and the station was ready to download.

Application Fields

• Machine building and OEM skids – Driving solenoids, relays, stack lights, and contactor coils in compact panels.
• Material handling and conveyors – Clean diagnostics help find wiring faults quickly, which saves downtime.
• Food & beverage and packaging – Tight cabinets benefit from the ET 200SP footprint and channel density.
• Process skids and utilities – Reliable 24 V DC output switching for dampers, dosing valves, and utility equipment.
• Retrofits – Easy drop-in when standardizing plants on ET 200SP stations.

Advantages & Value

• Reliability – Siemens ET 200SP modules are known for stable operation and predictable diagnostics.
• Compatibility – Works seamlessly with TIA Portal and common PROFINET/PROFIBUS architectures via the station head.
• Cabinet savings – The slice design, typically 15 mm wide, reduces rail space and heat load compared with older systems.
• Lower lifecycle cost – Tool-free replacement and clear channel diagnostics can cut troubleshooting time.
• Global ecosystem – Availability of spares, documentation, and engineering support simplifies procurement planning.

Installation & Maintenance

• Panel environment – Install in an IP20 control cabinet with adequate ventilation; respect ambient temperature and derating where applicable.
• DIN rail and BaseUnit – Mount the BaseUnit on a 35 mm DIN rail; snap the module onto the BU. Wiring depends on the BU terminal type (spring/screw).
• Power and grounding – Use a stable 24 V DC supply with proper grounding and overcurrent protection; segregate I/O and power wiring to minimize noise.
• Wiring practice – Keep cable labeling consistent with the module’s channel assignments; group loads per project safety concept.
• Safety – De-energize the station before wiring changes. Validate output states in a safe mode after parameter updates.
• Routine maintenance – Periodically check terminal torque/spring tension, clean dust, review diagnostics in TIA Portal, and apply firmware updates to the station’s interface module when recommended.

Quality & Certifications

As with most SIMATIC ET 200SP modules, certifications typically include CE, cULus, and RoHS compliance. The product usually carries the manufacturer’s standard warranty; we back it with a 365-day warranty on delivery. If you need a conformity report for a specific site standard (for example, marine or SIL context), we can verify against the exact module revision before shipment.
