Information About 6ES7241-1CH30-1XB0
The 6ES7241-1CH30-1XB0 is part of the Siemens SIMATIC S7-1200 communication expansion portfolio and is designed to add serial RS-485 connectivity to compact PLC systems. It integrates directly with S7-1200 CPUs and supports multiple communication protocols, enabling connection to drives, HMIs, sensors, and third-party devices. The board supports both master and slave operation for Modbus RTU and includes Freeport functionality for message-based communication without fixed protocol structures. Engineered for industrial environments, it supports long-distance data transmission with robust diagnostics and wide environmental tolerances.
Key Features
- RS-485 serial interface: Provides reliable long-distance communication using a standard 9-pin D-Sub connector.
- Multi-protocol support: Includes ASCII, USS, Modbus RTU master/slave, and Freeport for flexible integration.
- Freeport message handling: Enables custom, message-based communication without predefined telegram formats.
- Long cable capability: Supports cable lengths up to 1000 meters for distributed industrial installations.
- Integrated diagnostics: Provides communication status monitoring and fault detection for improved system reliability.
- SIMATIC S7-1200 compatibility: Designed specifically for seamless integration with S7-1200 PLC hardware.
- Industrial environmental design: Rated for wide temperature, humidity, and pressure ranges in automation systems.
The 6ES7241-1CH30-1XB0 delivers the reliability and precision required for robust serial communication in SIMATIC S7-1200 industrial automation applications.
