SIEMENS - SIMATIC S7-1500 - CPU 1517TF Technology Fail-Safe PLC

Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1517TF controllers are high-performance Technology Fail-Safe PLC CPUs designed for demanding machine and production automation applications requiring advanced motion control together with integrated functional safety.

The CPU 1517TF family combines standard PLC processing, extended SIMATIC Motion Control technology functions and fail-safe program execution within a single S7-1500 controller architecture. This allows complex machine-control, coordinated motion and safety-related functions to be engineered within an integrated automation platform.

Depending on the applicable CPU 1517TF variant, communication capabilities can include PROFINET IRT, Industrial Ethernet, PROFIBUS DP and PROFIsafe, supporting integration with distributed standard and fail-safe I/O, drives, HMI systems and other industrial automation equipment.

Integrated technology functions support positioning, synchronous motion, electronic gearing, camming, kinematics and coordinated motion, while fail-safe functionality supports safety-related machine applications up to the applicable certified safety level.

CPU 1517TF controllers are suited to sophisticated packaging, converting, assembly, robotics, material-handling and production machinery requiring high processing performance, advanced motion control and integrated functional safety.
