Product description

Siemens 6ES7 461-0AA01-0AA0 is an IM 461-0 receive interface for the SIMATIC S7-400 automation system. It connects an expansion rack centrally to the central rack and is used exclusively with the IM 460-0 send interface. The interface pair transfers both the P bus and communication bus, but it does not transfer the supply voltage. The expansion rack therefore requires its own compatible power supply. Siemens cables from the 6ES7 468-1 family are specified for the connection. The Siemens catalog lists lengths of 0.75 m, 1.5 m and 5 m; the total cable length between the first and last interface must not exceed 5 m. The bus is terminated at the final receive interface with the specified terminating plug. IM 461-0 has two front connection ports so that the interface chain can enter and continue from the module. Status indicators report internal and external faults and the state of both connections. The module draws typically 260 mA and a maximum of 290 mA from the 5-V backplane bus. Power dissipation is typically 1.3 W and a maximum of 1.45 W; no backup current is provided. It measures 25 mm wide, 290 mm high and 280 mm deep and weighs approx. 610 g. Before replacement, compare the complete order number, the paired IM 460-0, cable type and length, termination, rack number and separate expansion-rack supply. These checks make the AA01 version suitable for targeted maintenance of centrally expanded S7-400 systems without changing the installed bus architecture.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Contact us
Which send interface is used with Siemens 6ES7 461-0AA01-0AA0?

IM 461-0 receive interface is used exclusively with IM 460-0 send interface for centralized S7-400 expansion.

Does IM 461-0 transfer the supply voltage to the expansion rack?

No. The interface pair transfers the P bus and communication bus but not the supply voltage; the expansion rack requires its own power supply.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, we provide a 14-day functional guarantee for used items. This means the component must be operational when received.

Please note that the guarantee only applies when the warranty seal is undamaged.

If a defect occurs within 14 calendar days, please contact us in writing. Subject to availability, we will provide a replacement or refund the full purchase price after return.

Further details are provided in the terms and conditions supplied with your quotation.

How quickly do you dispatch and which shipping options are available?

We generally dispatch immediately - in many cases on the same working day. For particularly urgent requirements or machine downtime, we find a suitable solution as quickly as possible and provide a specific delivery window on request.

Express shipping or collection from our premises is also possible, depending on the situation. State your requirements during the ordering process or contact us directly.

We ship worldwide and work with reliable shipping partners, from parcel services to freight forwarding. Freight shipments normally require some preparation so the goods arrive safely and undamaged.

Which payment methods are available?

Payment is normally made by bank transfer against invoice. Payment is due within 10 calendar days of receiving the goods.

As a rule, we offer purchase on account for all customers. In individual cases, such as new customers or particularly high-value components, we may agree advance payment. This decision is made individually and communicated transparently.

Can we return items if they were ordered incorrectly?

Because we sell exclusively to business customers (B2B), there is no general right of return and no consumer right of withdrawal.

Please note that returns of functioning goods are generally excluded. In justified exceptional cases, we can assess an individual solution, but this is not the standard procedure.

Is there a discount when ordering several items?

For larger order quantities or several items of one type, we can offer individual discounts.

Simply send us a quick enquiry - we check availability and will gladly prepare a tailored quotation with quantity pricing.

Do you also purchase industrial spare parts?

Yes, we also purchase automation components, such as frequency inverters, PLC assemblies, panels, servo motors and CPUs. Components from Siemens, Lenze, Schneider Electric, Control Techniques or Heidenhain are especially sought after, and other brands are also possible.

The process is straightforward: email us an inventory list or overview photos at info@reha-industriekomponenten.de. We calculate a market-based purchase price and send you an offer.
