Product Description
SIMATIC S7-200 SMART temperature expansion I/O
Siemens 6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 and 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0 are S7-200 SMART thermocouple expansion modules for multi-point temperature acquisition. The AT04 variant provides four 16-bit thermocouple inputs, while the AT08 variant provides eight inputs in the same temperature-measurement family, so the number of field pairs changes with the selected article.
The exact Siemens 6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 / 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0 identifier must remain attached to the panel wiring because channel count, module size and current demand differ. Each thermocouple input is configured for its sensor type and rejection filter; the module applies cold-junction compensation and reports range or open-wire status to the S7-200 SMART CPU.
At the connector, the AT04 wiring uses X10 for 24 V DC and functional earth and X11 for AI 0 through AI 3 thermocouple pairs. The AT08 record extends the same temperature-input family to eight channels, so the project channel map, spare terminals and cabinet space must follow the exact suffix rather than treating the two articles as identical.

Operating Characteristics
SIMATIC S7-200 SMART EM AT thermocouple input modules
The Siemens 6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 / 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0 pair converts thermocouple signals into temperature data for the S7-200 SMART CPU. This detail belongs to the selected configuration and should not be inferred from the base family alone.
01
Channel capacity
6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 / 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0: 6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 supplies four 16-bit TC inputs; 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0 supplies eight 16-bit TC inputs. This detail belongs to the selected configuration and should not be inferred from the base family alone.
02
Measurement resolution
6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 / 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0: temperature resolution is 0.1 °C / 0.1 °F with 15-bit-plus-sign voltage representation in the thermocouple input path. This detail belongs to the selected configuration and should not be inferred from the base family alone.
03
Noise and junction
6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 / 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0: selectable 10, 50, 60 or 400 Hz rejection, integrating conversion and approximately ±1.5 °C cold-junction error shape the reported temperature value.

01
24 V DC input
6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 / 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0: the modules use the S7-200 SMART 24 V DC expansion supply; keep the module supply and sensor wiring within the specified limits.
02
Sensor cable
6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 / 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0: the thermocouple cable run is limited to 100 m with up to 100 Ω wire resistance in the selected arrangement. The complete cable path is kept with the installed configuration.
03
Isolation and diagnostics
6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 / 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0: field-to-logic, field-to-24 V DC and 24 V DC-to-logic isolation are 500 V AC; range and open-circuit status must be handled in the CPU program.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions tied to the exact model
How do Siemens 6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 and 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0 differ for an existing panel?
Siemens 6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 has four thermocouple channels, while Siemens 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0 has eight. The point count changes the channel map and available terminal wiring, so the exact article must match the configured project.
Why is the thermocouple type important on Siemens 6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0?
The input range, cold-junction calculation and temperature scaling depend on the selected thermocouple type. Siemens 6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 cannot be commissioned with a type setting that differs from the connected sensor.
What cabinet space does Siemens 6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 require?
The AT04 module is approximately 45 × 100 × 81 mm and weighs about 125 g; reserve terminal and thermocouple cable clearance around Siemens 6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0.
When is Siemens 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0 the wrong channel count?
If the project expects four thermocouple inputs, Siemens 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0 changes the expansion record to eight channels and should not be substituted without revising the hardware configuration.
How can noise affect Siemens 6ES7288-3AT04-0AA0 temperature values?
The selected 10, 50, 60 or 400 Hz rejection and the thermocouple cable routing affect the measured value; keep the cable within 100 m and configure the filter for the required response.
What should the CPU do with a thermocouple open circuit on Siemens 6ES7288-3AT08-0AA0?
The controller program should process the module's open-circuit and range status instead of treating an invalid channel value as a valid temperature reading.
