SIMATIC S7-1200 CPU

SIMATIC S7-1200 small programmable controllers fully meet the system requirements of small and medium-sized automation. During the development process, the needs of seamless integration and coordination of system, controller, HMI and software were taken into full consideration.The introduction of SIMATIC S7-1200 series marks the expansion of Siemens' product portfolio based on the original product series, representing the future development direction of small programmable controllers, and Siemens will continue to explore and innovate.

Overview

The digital I/Os complement the integrated I/Os of the SIMATIC S7-1200 CPUs as signaling modules for the individual modules; can be used with all SIMATIC S7-1200 CPUs except the CPU 1211C as signaling boards for the modules and are suitable for plugging into CPUs with space constraints; can be used with all SIMATIC S7-1200 CPUs. Used to flexibly adapt the controller to the requirements of the task in question Used for subsequent expansion of the system with additional inputs and outputs

Applications

In addition to the existing integrated digital inputs/outputs, the digital expansion modules offer additional options for the use of digital inputs/outputs s. This provides the user with the following advantages:

Good adaptability:

Using signal modules that can be mixed as required, the user can adapt his controller exactly to the requirements of the task in question. This avoids unnecessary investments. Modules with 8, 16 and 32 input/output channels can be used Signal boards can be used when space is limited or when only a few additional inputs/outputs are required. The signaling board allows a modular expansion of the S7-1200 CPU. This does not increase the installation space required for the controller

Flexibility: The controller can be upgraded if the task is subsequently expanded. Updating the user program is very simple.

Design

Signal templates

The signaling modules have the same design features as the basic device:

Mounting on DIN rails: The modules are mounted on a rail next to the CPU on the right-hand side, electrically and mechanically connected to each other and to the CPU via a slide mechanism.

Direct mounting: Horizontal or vertical mounting on the DIN rail or direct mounting in the control cabinet using the integrated drilled holes Easy replacement as all digital modules are equipped with removable connection terminals (“individually wired”).

Signal boards

The signal boards are plugged directly into the socket on the front of each S7-1200 CPU.

Installation:

The signal boards are plugged directly into the SIMATIC S7-1200 CPUs and can therefore be connected electrically and mechanically to the CPUs. the mounting dimensions of the CPUs remain unchanged. All signaling boards are easy to replace because they are equipped with removable connection terminals (“separate wiring”).

SIMATIC S7-1200

The SIMATIC S7-1200, characterized by an integrated PROFINET interface, large integrated process functions, and flexible scalability, offers simple communication and a wide range of process tasks.

The SIMATIC S7-1200 Small Programmable Controller fully meets the system requirements of small and medium-sized automation. In the development process, fully considered the system, controller, human-machine interface and software for seamless integration and effective coordination of the needs of the SIMATIC S7-1200 series, marking Siemens in the original product line based on the expansion of the product map, representing the future direction of the development of small programmable controllers, Siemens will continue to develop and innovate, automation trends. The S7-1200 series is an effective solution to meet the completely different automation needs of a wide range of applications in particular.
