Product description

The IM 461-3 has an upper X1 interface as the input from the preceding module and a lower X2 interface as the output to the next module or to terminating plug 6ES7461-3AA00-7AA0. The receive module draws a typical 590 mA and a maximum 620 mA from the 5-V backplane bus; power loss is typically 2.95 W and at most 3.10 W. Documented identifiers and values: 6ES7; 461-3AA00-0AA0; 460-3; 25; 290; 280 mm; 620; 620 g. Dimensions of 25 × 290 × 280 mm and a weight of approximately 620 g distinguish it clearly from adjacent IM variants. Together with an IM 460-3 send interface module, it connects the central mounting rack to remote expansion racks. Siemens documents a total cable length of up to 102 m for this coupling method and transmission of the communication bus at the full data rate. Siemens 6ES7 461-3AA00-0AA0 is the IM 461-3 receive interface module for distributed expansion of SIMATIC-S7-400 systems.

Frequently asked questions

Which identifier is decisive for Siemens 6ES7 461-3AA00-0AA0?

The full manufacturer and type number 6ES7 461-3AA00-0AA0 is decisive for the order. Selection of the required version and verification for the customer’s installation remain the responsibility of the customer or its qualified personnel and should be based on the manufacturer documentation.

What applies if an item develops a defect within 14 days?

For the condition categories “Used, removed from an installation” and “New, old stock”, the contractual 14-day right of return in the event of a defect applies. The defect must occur within 14 calendar days after delivery and be reported in text form within the same period.

In particular, the REHA tamper-evident seal must remain fully intact and our RMA approval is required before return. In an accepted case, we decide between replacement and refund. Details in Section 11 of the Terms.

Which shipping methods and delivery times are available?

The shipping method, shipping cost and estimated delivery time are confirmed for the specific order. Depending on the item, destination and urgency, we can check parcel, express or freight shipping as well as collection.

A delivery date is binding only if we expressly confirm it as binding.

Which payment terms apply?

The payment terms stated in the checkout or order confirmation apply. Depending on the order and customer, payment is made in advance or against invoice.

International deliveries and deliveries to new customers are generally made against advance payment unless we expressly confirm another payment arrangement.

Can I return an item ordered incorrectly or found incompatible?

No. There is no general B2B right of return, exchange, cancellation or withdrawal. Incorrect or duplicate orders and a lack of suitability or compatibility with the customer’s installation are not covered by the contractual 14-day right of return in the event of a defect. Details in Section 12 of the Terms.

Can I request individual pricing for several items?

You may request an individual quotation for several items or larger quantities. We then check availability and pricing for the specific requirement; there is no entitlement to a quantity discount. Open the quick enquiry.

Do you also purchase industrial spare parts?

Yes. You can offer us automation and drive components for purchase. Please provide complete type numbers, quantities, condition details and photographs where possible.

After review, we will tell you whether a purchase is possible and on which terms. Learn more about selling industrial stock.
