How to Select an Interface Relay for PLC Outputs
A step-by-step guide to matching PLC output type, coil voltage and current, contact rating, and socket style when selecting an interface relay.
The Siemens 6ES7960-1AA06-0XA0 is a synchronization module V6 for the SIMATIC S7-400H fault-tolerant CPU, paired with an FOC patch cable up to 10 m long. It plugs into the CPU's sync-link slot and carries the redundancy link between the two H-system racks, drawing a maximum of 220 mA and dissipating 0.77 W typical at only 14 g.
This V6 module is built for the short-range patch-cable link, up to 10 m between the two H-CPU racks, which covers same-room and adjacent-cabinet installations. Where the redundant racks are further apart, in separate rooms or buildings, the routed-cable variant of this module is the correct choice instead, since it is rated for links up to 10 km.
