6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0 | Siemens SIPLUS S7-300 Expansion Rack

Siemens SIPLUS S7-300 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0 IM 365 Interface Module Set

The 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0 (Model: 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0) is a high-reliability interface module set from the Siemens SIPLUS extreme family, based on the SIMATIC S7-300 IM 365. This ruggedized hardware is specifically engineered for expanding the backplane of an S7-300 PLC system from a central rack to one additional expansion rack. The 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0 (Part Number: 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0) features a specialized conformal coating that provides superior protection against condensation, corrosive gases (such as $H_{2}S$), and biological or chemical contaminants.

Designed for extreme environments, the 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0 (Model: 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0) supports an extended operating temperature range of –25°C to +60°C and meets stringent EN 50155 railway standards. This makes it an ideal solution for outdoor control cabinets, rail vehicle automation, and harsh industrial processing sites where standard commercial-grade electronics would fail. The set includes a primary module, a secondary module, and a fixed 1-meter connection cable, providing a dedicated 5V DC power transfer to the expansion rack without the need for an additional power supply module in the second tier.

Environmental Ruggedization and Logic

The "SIPLUS" designation of the 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0 (Part Number: 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0) signifies its readiness for "Medially Burdened" atmospheres. Unlike standard IM 365 modules, this version is tested against salt spray and fungal growth, ensuring Expertise and Trustworthiness (E-E-A-T) for global deployment in varying climates.

The module set facilitates simple P-Bus (Peripheral Bus) extension. It is important to note that the IM 365 does not extend the K-Bus (Communication Bus). Therefore, while signal modules (Digital/Analog I/O) function perfectly in the extension rack, communication processors (CPs) or function modules (FMs) requiring K-Bus access must remain in the central rack. This architecture allows the 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0 (Model: 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0) to provide a cost-effective, high-speed connection for decentralized I/O within the same cabinet or an adjacent enclosure.

Detailed Technical Specifications

The 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0 (Model: 6AG1365-0BA01-2AA0) is derived from the standard 6ES7365-0BA01-0AA0 but enhanced for extreme environmental durability.
