Interface Module Adapter

6EZ2 for SIMATIC S7-400
Short Description June 2005

Innovation on economical base

Talking to our customers there seems to be always a
common problem : many plants are still operating with
automation systems of the previous generation and
although the performance is still sufficient, it will
become increasingly difficult to get spare parts and to
have an efficient service in the future.

Version
V1.2
Date of issue June 05

To be up to date, it will be necessary to replace the

existing system with a modern unit.
But quite often this decision is delayed by the fear of
disruption of the running production and the
inconvenience of long term trouble shooting in case of
miswiring.
But that could be avoided!

Interface Module Adapter for SIMATIC S7

1 Application
Retrofit at ease
Siemens engineers have developed an elegant method to
solve your problem:
in very short time
without errors
on a low cost level
The Interface Module Adapter 6EZ2 for SIMATIC S7
400 links the old with the new : field proven production
systems with the latest achievements in automation
systems. You simply take off the front plug of the I/O
units, replace the automation system by a S7 400 , plug
in the IMA and fix the front plug back on to the adapter.
You see, all is done easily by plugins. And after
installation of the STEP 7 software you can continue
with you production. To provide you with the adequate
software, Siemens engineers will be at your service.

Advantages are obvious

low engineering costs in the hardware. Only a

replacement of the controller is necessary, all
wiring remains at its place
schematic diagrams dont have to be revised,
signals lists are automatically updated by the
software
Shutdown time of the production is reduced.

This procedure not only saves you a lot of time

and money, but also reduces errors.

4 Power Supply
4.1 Separation of Potentials
There are floating or non- floating IOs. In both cases the power for the module has to be supplied by the user.
Another criterion is the short circuit protection of the signals. The outputs have to be tested for the rating of the
pins and the printed conductor. Therefore the power supply of signals is rooted in groups of 1/2/4/8/16.

Interface Module Adapter for SIMATIC S7

6 Conditions of Sale
1. The Interface Module Adapters 6EZ2 041-8UG..
are intended to be used between the front-plugs on
the I-O-modules of an obsolete controller and a
modern replacement controller SIMATIC S 7.
Hereby all installation remains at its place, only the
controller and the respective software have to be
substituted.
For the substitution of the up to now used units the
best matching units of S7- components were
selected. However there remains a certain deviation
in the specific performance. It is up to the user to
check the limitations of his own installation, in
particular the:
Power supply
Signal voltage
Line-frequency
Limits of I-O-definitions
Rooting
Number of channels
Loading capacity
Rating of connectors
Signal switching frequency
2. If S7-units do require an external application of
+/- potentials and the old installation did not supply
them, these potentials have to be brought to the
terminal block on the adapter.

8. Warranty
Equipment sold hereunder is covered by a warranty
against defects in material and workmanship for a
period of one (1) year from date of shipment by
Siemens provided the goods are submitted to
normal use and services.
The obligation under this warranty is limited to the
repair or replacement at the Seller'
s option of
definite parts.
Provided that prompt notice of any defect is given
by Purchaser to the Seller in writing within the
applicable warranty period and that upon the
Purchaser'
s return of the defective parts to the Seller
properly packed and with transportation charges
prepaid by purchaser, an inspection thereof shall
reveal to the Seller'
s satisfaction that Purchaser'
s
claim is valid under the term of this warranty.
This warranty does not apply to equipment which is
altered or repaired other than by persons authorized
or approved by Siemens to perform such work, or if
the Purchaser fails to operate and use the equipment
sold hereunder in a safe and reasonable manner and
in accordance with the manufacturer'
s written
instructions

3. If the power-rooting of the old installation is not

corresponding to the new requirements, the user has
to install the additional jumpers.
4. If the old installation was fed from different
power sources an equipotential bonding contactor
has to be applied.
5. The enable signal of the S5 units is not present
in the S7-system in an identical way and may be
considered on handling.
6. The parametering and selection of modes in the
I/O-units has to be done according to the
requirements of the S7.
7. The vendor is not liable for damages that are
caused by improper use of the Interface Module
Adapters. It is recommended to perform a field-test
before the general switch-over of the new
installation.
