Siemens S7-1500 in the new generation of high-end release in Beijing

March 12, 2013, Siemens Industrial Business Group Industrial Automation Group officially launched a new generation of PLC controller - SIMATIC S7-1500 March 12, 2013, Siemens industrial business automation industry group officially launched a new generation of PLC controller - SIMATIC S7-1500, the series designed for high-end equipment and factory automation design. In addition to superior system performance, the controller integrates a range of functions, including motion control, industrial information security, and fail-safe functionality for easy and secure applications. The new controllers feature high performance and high efficiency. Its high efficiency is particularly evident in the innovative design that makes commissioning and safe operation simple and easy. The diagnostic functions integrated in the TIA Portal enable easy diagnosis of plant operating conditions, simplified engineering and reduced project costs.

A new generation of SIMATIC S7-1500 controllers will be phased in to the market. Initially, the marketed products include three types of CPU, namely 1511, 1513 and 1516, these three models for mid-range performance applications. Each of these models will also be available in F-Class (fail-safe) to provide security applications and is divided into performance levels based on port count, bit processing speed, display specifications, and data memory. Depending on the requirements of the automation task, up to 32 expansion modules can be added per CPU, such as communication and process modules or I / O modules, in the same way as the SIMATIC ET 200MP.

On the overall performance, technology, industrial information security, failure safety and system performance have improved significantly. In order to improve the efficiency of the series in the design, processing, system diagnostics, and TIA Bo road engineering design has been further improved.
