Big performance
in a small space
A marvel of space and efficiency They are available either as I/O modules or as ASIsafe
modules with safety inputs with IP20 protection.
The AS-Interface fieldbus (AS-i) is the ideal solution in
such diverse applications as the machine tool industry Whether you are carrying out an initial installation,
and conveyor technology for collecting extensive signals servicing, adapting or extending an existing system,
from sensors and actuators in the field and transmitting the AS-i SlimLine Compact modules from Siemens with
them to the control level. their trimmed-down enclosure width are setting new
standards. There has never been so much AS-i perfor-
With a width of just 17.5 or 22.5 mm, the new Siemens
mance packed into such a small space! The optional
AS-i SlimLine Compact modules score points for their
device connectors ensure error-free and time-saving
minimal space requirements in control cabinets and dis-
installation, while configuration in the Totally Integrated
tributed local control boxes. A unique device connector

simplifies wiring and eliminates errors. Siemens
neering 30 percent faster.
AS-i SlimLine Compact modules save time, materials,
and money.

AS-i SlimLine Compact (digital, ASIsafe)

Benefits Product features
Reduced costs New, space-saving enclosure results in
slimmer design:
• 4DI/4DQ with just 22.5 mm
• 4DI and 2F-DI with just 17.5 mm

Quick installation, With optional device connectors:

easy wiring • Simple connection of multiple modules
• Connection of AS-i and Uaux only necessary
on a single module
• Fewer wiring errors

Quick wire connection Via push-in spring-type terminals:

without tools
Flexible use and
higher energy efficiency
Elegant system design
with AS-i Power24V
• All devices available with screw or spring-type terminals
• Two wires can be connected to each spring-type terminal
• No twin wire end ferrules necessary
• Removable terminals for fast module replacement
Through selectable sensor supply:
• Power supply for sensors either by
Uaux or AS-i
• Wiring remains unchanged
• When Uaux is switched off, it is possible to
switch off sensors; for instance, during work breaks
• Sensors connected to Uaux do not draw power from the
AS-i power supply unit
All AS-i SlimLine Compact modules are AS-i Power24V compatible
