The Siemens 7MH4138-6AA00-0BA0 is the TM SIWAREX WP321 ST, a single-channel weighing module for the SIMATIC ET 200SP system. It is intended for platform and hopper scales using analog load cells or full-bridge strain gauges. The module provides one load-cell interface covering the 1–4 mV/V range and one RS-485 interface for communication. The current Siemens technical documentation identifies Base Unit type A0, firmware V1.4.3 and hardware functional status FS04. It operates from 24 V DC with a permissible range of 19.2–28.8 V DC and supports STEP 7/TIA Portal V14 or higher. The module provides 600 Hz sampling, measuring ranges of ±1, ±2 and ±4 mV/V, and diagnostic functions including supply monitoring, wire-break and short-circuit detection.

5. Product Highlights
The WP321 ST provides dedicated weighing functionality in a compact 15 mm ET 200SP module. Its single-channel load-cell interface, RS-485 communication, 600 Hz sampling and integrated diagnostics make it suitable for static weighing applications integrated into SIMATIC automation architectures. The module also supports both 4-conductor and 6-conductor full-bridge strain-gauge connections.
6. Important Ordering & Installation Information
Order number 7MH4138-6AA00-0BA0 must be matched with the specified BU type A0 Base Unit. The module requires 24 V DC within the documented 19.2–28.8 V range. Siemens specifies STEP 7/TIA Portal V14 or higher and GSDML V2.34 for PROFINET engineering. Verify the installed hardware and firmware status before commissioning or replacement.
Always follow the manufacturer's official installation, wiring, commissioning and safety instructions.
7. Why Choose Siemens 7MH4138-6AA00-0BA0 SIWAREX WP321 ST Weighing Module?
The WP321 ST is appropriate for applications requiring a dedicated weighing interface inside an ET 200SP architecture. Its full-bridge load-cell support, 600 Hz sampling, RS-485 communication and integrated diagnostic functions allow weighing signals to be incorporated into a broader SIMATIC automation system without using a separate standalone weighing controller.
8. Product Summary
The Siemens 7MH4138-6AA00-0BA0 TM SIWAREX WP321 ST is a single-channel ET 200SP weighing module designed for platform and hopper scales. It accepts analog full-bridge strain-gauge signals and supports measuring ranges of ±1, ±2 and ±4 mV/V. The module includes RS-485 communication up to 115.2 k bit/s, 600 Hz sampling, 24 V DC operation and diagnostic monitoring. It uses Base Unit type A0 and supports STEP 7/TIA Portal V14 or higher. With its compact 15 mm width and documented S7/PROFINET compatibility, it is suited to integrating static weighing functions into Siemens automation systems.
