Siemens 6ES7136-6RA00-0BF0 SIMATIC ET 200SP F-RQ 1x24VDC/230VAC 5A Fail-safe Remote I/O Module

The Siemens 6ES7136-6RA00-0BF0 is a SIMATIC ET 200SP fail-safe relay output module with 1 relay output (2 NO contacts) switching up to 5A resistive load at 24V DC or 230V AC, achieving Performance Level e / SIL 3 when controlled by a matching F-DQ fail-safe digital output module, fitted to BU type F0.

Selection Notes

Per Siemens' own module description, this relay stage reaches PL e / SIL 3 only when the coil is driven by a matching F-DQ fail-safe digital output module such as 6ES7136-6DB00-0CA0 - the relay module alone provides the switching contacts, not the safety logic path. The UL 508 Pilot Duty B300/R300 rating is the detail that matters for North American panels: it qualifies the relay for direct contactor-coil switching, not just resistive loads, which a generic AC15/DC13-rated relay would not cover. Unlike the standard (non-safety) ET 200SP I/O modules in this family, the operating range starts at 0°C rather than -30°C, and the current rating derates from 5A at 40°C down to 3A at 60°C horizontal or 3A at 50°C vertical - worth checking against the panel's expected ambient before sizing the safety loop.

Applications

Safety-rated relay output for E-stop circuits, safety door/gate interlocks, and direct contactor-coil switching up to PL e / SIL 3, including North American installations where UL 508 Pilot Duty B300/R300 approval is required.
