NEW CPU315-2DP 6ES7 315-2AH14-0AB0

The

Siemens SIMATIC S7-300 CPU 315-2DP (6ES7315-2AH14-0AB0)

is a programmable logic controller (PLC) central processing unit for use in industrial automation. It features an integrated 24V DC power supply, a 256 KB work memory, and multiple communication interfaces. This CPU is in the PM400 "phase-out" lifecycle, meaning it is no longer the latest technology, but is still widely used. 

Product features

Based on the datasheet and product information from sources like IndMALL, Electrihub, and the Siemens SiePortal, key features and technical specifications include: 

• Manufacturer: Siemens

• Series: SIMATIC S7-300

• Order number: 6ES7315-2AH14-0AB0

• Product lifecycle: PM400 (Phase Out Started)

• Work memory: 256 KB

• Interfaces: MPI (Multi-Point Interface) and PROFIBUS DP (master/slave)

• Power supply: Integrated 24V DC

• Memory card: Requires a Micro Memory Card (MMC) to operate

• Programming: Requires STEP 7 software (version V5.5 SP1 or higher)

• Bit processing time: 0.05 µs, typical

• Dimensions: 13.10 x 15.30 x 5.20 cm (Net weight: 0.331 kg) 

Potential replacements

Since the S7-300 series is in the phase-out stage, newer CPUs may be a more sustainable option for new projects.

• Siemens SIMATIC S7-300 CPU 315-2 PN/DP (6ES7315-2EH14-0AB0): An upgraded version with PROFINET capability, also in the S7-300 family.

• Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 series: This is the current generation of Siemens PLCs and the recommended upgrade path for most S7-300 applications, offering significantly better performance and features.
