SIEMENS SIMATIC S7-1500F CPU FAIL-SAFE 1518F-4PN/DP MFP – 6ES7518-4FX00-1AC0

The central processing unit is the heart of the SIMATIC S7-1500 series. It precisely executes the user’s program by connecting the controller with other automation elements.

Thanks to the applied innovations, the processors of the SIMATIC S7-1500F – 6ES7518-4FP00-3AB0 set (CPU 1518F-4 PN/DP MFP – 6ES7518-4FX00-1AB0) provide the highest performance. The equipment is extremely compact and resistant thanks to the IP20 or IP65/67 standards. The unit is equipped with an intuitive display and buttons, thanks to which it allows for quick and easy operation or configuration of addresses, modules and other settings. The device instantly processes bit operations in 1 ns, the offered model is one of the fastest in the series. The CPU 1518-4 PN/DP ODK provides the user with 9 Mb for program and 60 Mb for data.

The S7-1500 controller has been designed as a compact processor, which saves space in the control cabinet, Input / Output are integrated, but the controller itself can be expanded and enlarged with additional I/O modules or by using a wide range of signal and communication modules, easy adapting specifically to current needs will additionally increase the efficiency of the controller or make it adapt to new circumstances without any problems.

The FAIL-SAFE versions have a larger memory for standard applications and safe communication via PROFIsafe with PROFINET/PROFIBUS and guarantee the highest level of safety, functional up to SIL 3 according to IEC 62061 according to ISO 13849. This range includes both standard and fail-safe processors for all requirements, offering compact designs with integrated I/O. Wherever it is necessary to use the C/C++ language in the PLC function or in a standalone application. Multifunctional platform processors and powerful technological processors provide support for extended handling functions. Special requirements regarding strength or environmental conditions are covered by a separate family of SIPLUS devices.

The SIMATIC S7-1500 TM NPU technology module for the SIMATIC S7-1500 controller and the ET 200MP I/O system allows the use of artificial intelligence methods in automation. It can be easily integrated into the SIMATIC system without any additional hardware. In this way, a simple and inexpensive combination of AI algorithms and PLC logic is possible for any machine.

Siemens with the SIMATIC S7-1500F – 6ES7518-4FX00-1AC0 series offers automation that meets all the requirements of the manufacturing and processing industry, optimally selected, high-quality standard components, a number of technological functions make the SIMATIC series an integral part of comprehensive automation solutions even in the most difficult conditions.
