Flexible Signal Selection
The 6ES5470-4UB12 offers four independently configurable output channels for maximum versatility. You can set each channel for voltage (0–10 V or ±10 V) or current (0–20 mA or 4–20 mA) operation. This flexibility enables the module to interface with diverse field devices, including variable-speed drives and control valves. Consequently, you can standardize on one module type for multiple actuator families.
High-Resolution Signal Generation
This analog output module delivers 12-bit resolution, translating digital values into 4096 discrete output steps. The module maintains ±0.5% accuracy across the full output range at room temperature. This precision ensures smooth and repeatable actuator control in closed-loop applications. Moreover, the fast settling time of 0.5 ms for voltage outputs enables rapid response to setpoint changes.
Current and Voltage Drive Capabilities
The 6ES5470-4UB12 handles both voltage and current loads with ease. For voltage outputs, the module drives loads down to 2 kΩ without signal degradation. For current outputs, the module can source up to 20 mA into loads as high as 500 Ω. This drive capability suits both short-distance and long-distance signal transmission. In addition, the module’s internal short-circuit protection prevents damage from accidental wiring errors.
Superior Electrical Isolation
This analog output module provides 1,500 V AC isolation between the field outputs and the backplane logic. This high isolation rating effectively protects the PLC processor from ground loops and transient surges. The module also eliminates cross-channel interference, ensuring stable operation even in electrically noisy environments. This robust design enhances overall system reliability and signal integrity.
Installation and Physical Design
The 6ES5470-4UB12 mounts on standard DIN rails or installs in 19-inch racks for flexible integration. Its compact 25 mm width conserves valuable panel space for additional modules. Weighing just 0.47 kg, the module places negligible stress on mounting hardware. You can quickly replace the unit during maintenance, minimizing costly downtime in your production schedule.
