Features Applications Model

The CPU with a very large program and data memory in the S7-1500 controller product range for failsafe applications with highest requirements regarding program scope and networking.
Can be used for failsafe functions up to SIL 3 according to IEC 61508 and up to PLe according to ISO 13849.
Extremely high processing speed for binary and floating-point arithmetic.
For cross-industry automation tasks in series machine, special machine and plant construction
Used as central controller in production lines with central and distributed I/O.
Supports PROFIsafe in centralized and distributed configuration.
PROFINET IO IRT interface with 2-port switch.
Two additional PROFINET interfaces with separate IP addresses.
PROFINET IO controller for operating distributed I/O on PROFINET.
PROFINET I-Device for connecting the CPU as an intelligent PROFINET device under a SIMATIC or non-Siemens PROFINET IO controller.
PROFIBUS DP master interface.
Isochronous mode on PROFIBUS and PROFINET.
Integrated Motion Control functionalities for controlling speed-controlled and positioning axes, support for external encoders
Integrated Web server with the option of creating user-defined Web pages.

The CPU 1518F-4 PN/DP is the most powerful S7-1500 CPU with a very large program and data memory for demanding standard and fail-safe tasks in applications that also contain distributed automation structures alongside central I/O. It can be used, for example, as a central controller in production lines or as a machine controller with high processing speed demands.
The CPU 1518F-4 PN/DP is used as a PROFINET IO controller or as distributed intelligence (PROFINET I-Device). The integrated PROFINET IO IRT interface is designed as a 2-port switch so that a linear topology can be set up in the system. The additional integrated PROFINET interfaces with separate IP address can be used for network separation, for example.
Distributed I/O can be connected via PROFIBUS (or PROFIsafe) via the integrated PROFIBUS interface.
In addition, the CPU offers comprehensive control functionalities, as well as the ability to connect drives via standardized PLC-open blocks.
