Description
The Siemens 6ES7590-0AA00-0AA0 (U-Connector) and 6ES7592-3AA00-0AA0 (Potential Bridges) are essential spare parts for the SIMATIC S7-1500 and ET 200MP automation systems. The U-Connector is a self-assembling backplane bus element used to connect I/O modules on the mounting rail, enabling the electrical bus connection between adjacent modules. The Potential Bridges are small, conductive metal clips designed to be inserted into the front connector (40-pin) of 35mm wide I/O modules. They are used to internally bridge specific terminal pairs (e.g., 9/29, 10/30, 19/39, 20/40) to supply the same potential (e.g., 24V L+ or 0V M) to multiple load groups without external jumper wires, significantly reducing wiring effort and cabinet space.

Why Choose Our Store
- Critical Spare Parts Specialist: We understand that these small components are critical for system commissioning and repair. A missing U-Connector can halt an entire station build.
- Compatibility Guarantee: We verify that the potential bridges are for 35mm modules only (they do not fit 25mm modules) and are for 24V DC signals only (not for 230V AC or analog modules).
- Bulk Pricing: Competitive pricing on multi-pack orders for large panel shops.
Applications
- System Expansion: Adding new I/O modules to an existing S7-1500 rack (requires U-Connector).
- Maintenance/Repair: Replacing a damaged U-Connector or lost potential bridges during module replacement.
- Wiring Optimization: Using potential bridges to daisy-chain power to multiple sensors/actuators from a single front connector source.
- Control Cabinet Retrofit: Upgrading older wiring methods to the modern S7-1500 push-in or screw-type front connector system.
