The Siemens SIMATIC S7 Combined Battery Module, designated as 6ES7297-1AA23-0XA0, is an essential accessory for S7-200 and S7-200CN programmable logic controllers. This module integrates a high-capacity lithium battery with a supercapacitor backup circuit, ensuring that the CPU retains its program, data, and real-time clock during extended power outages. It is specifically designed for use with CPU 221, 222, 224, 224XP, 226, and 226XM models, providing a reliable, maintenance-free backup solution for critical industrial automation systems. The module clips directly onto the side of the CPU without requiring any additional cabling or configuration, making it ideal for retrofits and new installations alike. Below are the comprehensive technical specifications derived from Siemens engineering documentation.
