Why Choose the WAGO 750-616/040-000 XTR Distance Module?
The WAGO 750-616/040-000 is a rugged distance module designed for the WAGO I/O System 750 XTR. It is used to visually and electrically divide a fieldbus node into sections, helping engineers organise modular automation assemblies and create clear segmentation within distributed PLC control systems.
Part of the WAGO automation product range, this XTR version is engineered for demanding industrial environments. The module is designed to withstand vibration, shock, temperature fluctuations and electromagnetic interference, ensuring reliable operation in transport, energy and heavy-industry applications. :contentReference
The 750-616/040-000 does not include power jumper contacts. Instead, it provides structural separation within the automation node while maintaining communication via internal data contacts. This ensures fieldbus communication continues uninterrupted while allowing engineers to logically divide the I/O station. :contentReference
Key Advantages
- Creates clear visual and electrical separation within fieldbus nodes.

- Designed for extreme industrial environments with XTR protection.
- Improves system organisation and troubleshooting.
- Compact 12 mm DIN rail module for high-density installations.
- Compatible with the WAGO I/O System 750 XTR.
Key Features
- Distance / separation module for WAGO I/O System 750 XTR.
- Used to divide fieldbus nodes into logical sections.
- No power jumper contacts on the field side.
- Internal data contacts maintain communication between modules.
- Designed for environments with high vibration and EMC exposure.
- DIN-35 rail mounting compatible with industrial control cabinets.
Industrial Automation System Organisation
Large distributed automation systems often include many I/O modules connected to a fieldbus controller. Distance modules allow engineers to divide these assemblies into logical sections, improving system organisation and simplifying maintenance and diagnostics.
The WAGO 750-616/040-000 performs this separation while maintaining communication through the internal system bus. Because the module does not distribute field power, a dedicated power supply module must be installed elsewhere in the I/O assembly to power downstream modules. :contentReference
Typical Applications
- Distributed PLC and fieldbus I/O systems.
- Industrial control cabinets and automation panels.
- Transport, energy and heavy-industry automation.
- Large modular I/O stations requiring logical segmentation.
- Automation installations operating in harsh environments.
