Siemens SIMATIC S7-300, CPU 317F-2DP 6ES7317-6FF00-0AB0

Specification Sheet for Siemens SIMATIC S7-300, CPU 317F-2DP (6ES7317-6FF00-0AB0)

Basic Information

• Product Model: 6ES7317-6FF00-0AB0

• Product Series: SIMATIC S7-300

• CPU Type: CPU 317F-2DP

• Application Areas: Chemical, Electronics, Electrical, and other industrial automation fields requiring advanced processing and communication capabilities.

Hardware Characteristics

• Integrated Interfaces:

1. MPI/DP Interface: 12 Mbit/s for both MPI (Multipoint Interface) and DP (Profibus DP) communication.

2. DP-Master/Slave: Supports both DP master and slave functionality for high-speed communication with other DP devices.

• Power Supply: Typically requires external 24 V DC power supply, with voltage range specified by Siemens for compatibility.

• Memory Configuration:

• Working Memory: 512 KByte, providing ample space for program execution and data handling.

• Load Memory: Micro Memory Card (MMC) required for program storage. Capacity depends on the MMC used.

• Retentive Memory: Available for retaining data blocks across power cycles, size specified by Siemens or dependent on MMC capacity.

Programming Environment

• Supported Software: STEP 7 V5.2 SP1 or higher, with Software Option S7 Distributed Safety for safety-related applications.

• Note: The use of this CPU with Distributed Safety functionality requires the installation of the appropriate software option and a compatible MMC.

Processing Capabilities

• High-performance CPU suitable for complex automation tasks, with processing speeds comparable to the CPU 312 but with increased memory capacity.

• Operation times for bit, word, fixed-point, and floating-point arithmetic are similar to those of the CPU 312, but actual performance may vary based on program complexity and system load.

Additional Features

• Program Block Quantities:

• Maximum number of Data Blocks (DBs), Function Blocks (FBs), and Functions (FCs) specified by Siemens, likely higher than the CPU 312 due to increased memory capacity.

• Types and quantities of Organization Blocks (OBs) include standard and specialized OBs for various system tasks, such as error handling, interrupts, and startup routines.

• Counters and Timers:

• S7 Counters and Timers: Unlimited (limited by RAM capacity), with retentivity for maintaining count and timer values across power cycles.

Notes

• The above specification sheet is based on publicly available information and may be subject to change due to product updates.

• It is strongly recommended to consult the latest official documentation or contact Siemens technical support for the most accurate and up-to-date information before purchase or use.

• Special attention should be paid to the requirements for external power supply, memory cards, and software options, as these can impact the operation and functionality of the CPU.
