8-Channel Relay Output Expansion for S7-200 PLCs
The 6ES7222-1HF22-0XA8 expansion module adds eight relay outputs to your SIMATIC S7-200 PLC system . This EM222 module specifically supports S7-22X CPUs and delivers reliable switching for various field devices . Each output channel handles up to 2 A of continuous current, making it suitable for driving contactors, solenoids, and indicator lamps . The module provides galvanic isolation between channels and the backplane bus for enhanced noise immunity.
Output Characteristics and Switching Capability
Each relay output on the 6ES7222-1HF22-0XA8 delivers 2 A rated current with resistive loads. The module supports 24 V DC load voltage, matching standard industrial control systems. Furthermore, the relay outputs offer flexibility for AC or DC switching applications. The module includes no integrated short-circuit protection, so you must provide external fusing .
Physical Dimensions and Installation
This compact module measures 45 mm in width, 80 mm in height, and 62 mm in depth . Its lightweight design, at approximately 153 g, simplifies DIN rail mounting . The module consumes only 2 W of power and draws minimal current from the backplane bus . It also features pluggable I/O terminals for straightforward wiring and maintenance.
Certifications and Compliance
The 6ES7222-1HF22-0XA8 carries CE approval and holds marine certifications including ABS, BV, and CCS . It also complies with China RoHS requirements for environmental safety. This module is designed exclusively for the S7-200 CN series, which is the Chinese market version of the product.
