Siemens 6ES7288-7ST40-0AA0 ST40 Module
A Siemens S7-200 SMART ordering reference that must be verified by its complete MLFB and physical label.
Overview
Siemens 6ES7288-7ST40-0AA0 is retained here as the complete customer-supplied S7-200 SMART ordering reference. The full MLFB must remain unchanged across quotation, receipt and service documentation.
Electrical and mechanical selection for 6ES7288-7ST40-0AA0 must follow a Siemens document that matches the complete MLFB. Ratings from ST40 CPUs, signal boards or communication modules with different article numbers do not apply.
The procurement record identifies the exact model, separates it from nearby ST40 CPU and accessory codes, and defines the evidence required before supply or installation.
Specifications
Features
Exact-identity control
The complete 6ES7 ordering code stays visible instead of being shortened to ST40.
Variant separation
The page does not borrow CPU, signal-board or communication-module values from visually similar S7-200 SMART products.
Evidence-led sourcing
Label photographs, project configuration and the host assembly record define the quotation boundary.
Controlled replacement
A proposed replacement is reviewed only after function, interface, mechanical fit and firmware support are confirmed.
Applications
Spare identification
Creating an exact inquiry from a readable Siemens label when the installed part must not be generalized.
Legacy station audit
Reconciling the physical model, STEP 7 Micro/WIN SMART project and cabinet position.
Replacement review
Comparing a proposed successor or alternative only after manufacturer documentation is matched to the full MLFB.
Lifecycle
Identify
Capture every character of {{MODEL}} plus the serial, revision and installed position.
Correlate
Match the hardware label with the project configuration, CPU identity and approved Siemens document.
Approve
Release supply or installation only after function, wiring, firmware and mechanical fit are all documented.

FAQ
Why is 6ES7288-7ST40-0AA0 not described with ST40 CPU specifications?
The supplied MLFB begins with 7ST40 rather than the documented CPU ordering pattern, so CPU ratings are not transferred without an exact Siemens record.
What should be sent with a 6ES7288-7ST40-0AA0 enquiry?
Send clear front and side labels, the installed CPU and module position, project screenshots, quantity and destination.
Can 6ES7288-7ST40-0AA0 be shortened to ST40?
No. ST40 alone is not an exact purchasing identity; retain the complete 6ES7288-7ST40-0AA0 code.
How should a proposed replacement for 6ES7288-7ST40-0AA0 be reviewed?
Compare manufacturer function, electrical interface, connector, dimensions, firmware support and project impact against the installed evidence.
What makes a 6ES7288-7ST40-0AA0 receiving record complete?
Record the full MLFB, label photographs, supplier documentation, quantity, packaging condition and the intended station position.
