About the SM 1222, DQ 16x 24 V DC/0.5 A
Siemens 6ES7222-5BH50-0XB0 is a SIMATIC S7-1200 SM 1222 digital output module with 16 sourcing transistor outputs rated 24 V DC at 0.5 A each, arranged in two groups of 8. It runs from a 20.4-28.8 V DC supply, draws 120 mA max from the backplane bus, and reports diagnostic alarms per channel group through a DIAG LED.

Selection Notes
The 16DO/0.5A sourcing variant fits applications that need more output points per module than the 8-output SM 1222 - two isolated groups of 8 keep a field-wiring fault on one group from affecting the other. Short-circuit protection is not built in, per the verified spec, so external fusing or a protected 24 V source is required on the output side, unlike relay-output SM 1222 variants that tolerate higher inrush without external fusing. A relay-output SM 1222 is the better fit instead if the application needs to switch AC loads or currents above 0.5 A per point.
Applications
Adds digital output points to an S7-1200 station for driving 24 V DC solenoids, indicator lamps, and PLC-to-PLC signaling where transistor switching speed (50/200 us) matters more than AC load capability.
