SIMATIC ET 200AL

Compact outside‑cabinet modules for tight spaces, usable on moving machine parts and enabling flexible installation in any mounting position.

The Scalable Periphery system is developed for universal use in a wide range of applications and industries.

Combine the advantages of a SIMATIC S7-1500 PLC with the compact design of a SIMATIC ET 200 I/O system. Ideal for machines with limited space.

Discover the SIMATIC ET 200AL, a rugged, compact I/O system with IP65/67 protection, engineered for confined spaces and dynamic applications. Its design enables easy installation of modules in any position within machines or assembly lines. The scalable, flexible system adapts to your communication standard for optimal protocol use.

Utilize the module’s slim design to integrate it seamlessly into tight spaces and areas with restricted access. Install it confidently in demanding environments where compact form factors are essential for efficient layouts.

The minimal weight enables flexible mounting on moving machine parts. This allows the module to operate reliably even where dynamic motion demands low mass and high stability.

The modules can be used as stand‑alone units for flexible deployment. They can also be integrated as extensions to SIMATIC ET 200SP, allowing you to scale the system to the specific requirements of your application.

Integrated system and module diagnostics

Installation is easy and wiring is fast thanks to standardized connectors. Standardized engineering in TIA Portal enables consistent diagnostics and efficient operation. With the TIA Selection Tool, each system can be configured and ordered quickly within a simple workflow, supporting fast and reliable project planning.

Benefit from maximum flexibility wherever your application needs it. SIMATIC ET 200AL can operate as a compact stand‑alone system or be seamlessly combined with SIMATIC ET 200SP to extend functionality. Its modular design lets you scale I/O easily, adapt to changing requirements and build a consistent, space‑saving automation solution across your machine or plant.

SIMATIC ET 200AL provides safety modules up to SIL3/PL e. For standard modules, the system supports safe shutdown of outputs within a supply line. This increases flexibility when integrating safety applications, and diagnostics remain available even during a safe shutdown.

Use the communicative power of SIMATIC ET 200AL. Communicate efficiently with your field devices and access additional data through IO‑Link. Communicate across different protocols as needed. With MultiFieldbus, you can select the optimal protocol for any application, including PROFINET, EtherNet/IP and Modbus TCP.

The connectors and cables that can be ordered for the distributed IO system ET 200AL can be found here .

SIMATIC MultiFieldbus enables flexible communication across PROFINET, EtherNet/IP and Modbus TCP. This allows you to meet changing machine requirements without replacing the I/O system when customer protocols change.

IO-Link is a standardized digital point-to-point system that connects sensors and actuators to automation via IO-Link masters. It uses simple unshielded cables for easy installation and reliable signal quality. IO-Link provides device data, parameterization and diagnostics to simplify commissioning and maintenance.

A safe shutdown is the process in which safety modules or relays cut the power supply to standard modules, bringing the system into a safe state and preventing any unintended movements or operations. This function is available for various SIMATIC ET 200 standard modules. Additional information and a list of all suitable modules can be found here .
