Product Brief – Fail-Safe Digital Output Module
6ES7326-2BF10-0AB0 is a fail-safe digital output module for SIMATIC S7-300F and S7-400F systems. It provides 10 high-current outputs (2A each) for safety-related applications. This SM 326 F-DO10x24V DC/2A PP meets SIL3, PLe, and Category 4 standards. It is the core component for building emergency shutdown and safety interlock systems.
Oiltech Controls’s Insight
- Safety integration: This module is designed for fail-safe CPU operation. Always pair it with a certified F-CPU to achieve SIL3.
- Wiring practice: Use shielded cables for long runs up to 1000m. This reduces noise and prevents false trips.
- Load management: The total current per group is limited to 10A (horizontal, 40°C). Plan your load distribution carefully.
- Diagnostic value: The diagnostic alarm and readable error codes simplify troubleshooting. Use them to identify short circuits or wire breaks.

Professional FAQ – Expert Buying Guide
- Q1: Can I use this module with a standard non-failsafe CPU?
A: No. It requires a fail-safe CPU (e.g., 315F-2DP) to activate safety functions. In standard mode, it works as a normal output but without SIL rating. - Q2: What is the difference between 1L+, 2L+, and 3L+?
A: 1L+ powers the internal logic (max 100mA). 2L+ and 3L+ supply the output channels (two isolated groups of 5). You need separate power supplies for load and logic for safety isolation. - Q3: How do I interpret the group error (SF) LED?
A: A red SF indicates a fault. Read the diagnostic buffer via STEP 7 to identify specific issues like short circuit, overtemperature, or missing load voltage. - Q4: What is the maximum cable length for safety-related signals?
A: 1000m shielded is permissible. For unshielded, limit to 600m. For SIL3 applications, we strongly recommend shielded cables to maintain signal integrity. - Q5: What current derating applies for vertical installation?
A: In vertical mounting, the max total current is 5A (all temperatures). Plan your loads accordingly; for high currents, use horizontal mounting with adequate spacing.
