Siemens 6AV6641-0BA11-0AX1

Siemens 6AV6641-0BA11-0AX1 Overview

The Siemens 6AV6641-0BA11-0AX1 is an industrial Human-Machine Interface (HMI) facilitating smooth interaction between operators and automation systems. Part of the OP 77A series, this HMI is ideal for applications requiring a reliable and robust interface that operates efficiently in industrial environments. The model is engineered to provide clear and precise control options while maintaining a user-friendly design.

Design and Display Features

This model comes equipped with a 4.5-inch black-and-white STN display with a resolution of 160 pixels horizontally and 64 pixels vertically. While it offers just two colors—black and white—this is sufficient for many industrial applications where complex color schemes are unnecessary. The display is built to be durable and long-lasting, boasting an impressive mean time between failures (MTBF) for backlighting of 100,000 hours. This ensures that the HMI will remain functional and legible for extended periods in demanding conditions.

Mounting and Installation

Designed for vertical mounting, the 6AV6641-0BA11-0AX1 has a maximum mounting angle of 80 degrees. This flexibility allows for various installation configurations, making it suitable for multiple control cabinets and equipment layouts. It also supports RS 422 and RS 485 interfaces with a maximum data transmission rate of 1.5 Mbit/s, enabling versatile communication options.

Power and Processing Capabilities

The Siemens OP 77A is powered by DC voltage and requires an input current of approximately 0.2 A. It is equipped with an ARM processor, which offers sufficient computing power for executing HMI functions reliably. The unit can handle a starting current inrush of up to 0.5 A²·s, ensuring stable operation during power-up. This HMI has 256 KB of user memory, combining flash and RAM storage to efficiently manage applications and system data.

Durability and Certification

The Siemens 6AV6641-0BA11-0AX1 meets stringent industrial standards, with the front side rated at IP65 and the rear side at IP20. The IP65 rating ensures that the HMI’s front panel is resistant to dust and low-pressure water jets, making it ideal for harsh industrial environments. It is certified by various standards bodies, including CE, GL, ABS, BV, DNV, LRS, FM Class I Div. 2, UL, CSA, and cULus, highlighting its suitability for diverse applications and global use.

Temperature and Environmental Adaptability

The model is engineered to withstand temperatures up to 50°C, making it suitable for various industrial settings where high ambient temperatures are a concern. This wide temperature range ensures reliable operation in various manufacturing and processing environments.
