The SIMATIC S7-1500 controller pushes automated production forward – and this PLC CPU from Siemens sits at the beating heart of the innovative system. It executes user programmes while networking the controller with other automation components. The CPU’s PROFINET isochronous real-time (IRT) and real-time (RT) interface ensure precision when it comes to response times. There’s also a secondary PROFIBUS interface to handle communication between the controller and field sensors. With an integrated working memory of 2MB for programs and 8MB for data, valuable information stays safe.
