S7-1200

Basic Controller SIMATIC S7-1200, Basic Panels and TIA Portal

The difference is in the combination

SIMATIC S7-1200 basic controllers impress with their comprehensive range of technological functions and integrated IOs as well their particularly compact space-efficient design. They are the intelligent choice for all everyday automation tasks with a small project scope. The S7-1200 CPUs with Safety Integrated handle standard and safety-related tasks – without additional hardware. You save on wiring workload and are much more flexible in adapting safety circuits and managing operating modes. Thanks to standardized telecontrol protocols, you can connect SIMATIC S7-1200 controllers directly to your control center without programming being required.

A decisive advantage is the integration of the S7-1200 in the Totally Integrated Automation Portal
(TIA Portal): SIMATIC controllers and SIMATIC panels thus access a common database, a uniform operating concept and central services. For you, this means significantly less engineering work. The user-friendly and innovative operability of the TIA Portal as well as the integrated system diagnostics contribute to efficient working.

Thanks to their performance and functionality, SIMATIC controllers support scalable automation solutions, which are thus cost-efficient in all cases. The functionality of the SIMATIC S7-1200 controllers is derived consistently from the SIMATIC S7-1500 controllers developed for more complex tasks. This ensures uniform procedures and thus maximum efficiency in engineering, operation and maintenance as well as during migrations.

• Security Integrated
  Protection against unauthorized code or process value changes; which helps to facilitate increased operational availability.
• Know-how Protection
  Through password protection unauthorized third parties are not able to open your blocks and thus do not have access to your algorithm.
• Integrated Trace Function
  For more effective commissioning and faster problem solving we now have a powerful new integrated tool for analysis of interactions with all CPU tags and analog & digital signals.
• PLCSIM
  Complete controller station configuration, programming & testing; and no hardware is required!

All SIMATIC S7-1200 hardware has built-in clips that allow for easy and convenient mounting on a standard 35-mm DIN rail. These built-in clips can also be snapped into an extended position to provide mounting holes for situations where panel mounting is required. The SIMATIC S7-1200 hardware can be installed in either a horizontal or vertical position providing you with additional installation options. These integrated features offer users maximum flexibility during the installation process and they make the SIMATIC S7-1200 a practical solution for a wide variety of applications.

All SIMATIC S7-1200 hardware has been specifically designed to save space in the control panel. The new CPU 1217C and CPU 1215C, for instance, includes two PROFINET Ports. CPU 1215C has a width of 130 mm, CPU 1217C is 150 mm wide, CPU 1214C has a width of 110 mm. CPU 1212C as well as CPU 1211C are only 90 mm wide. Together with the small footprint of the communication and signal modules, this compact modular system saves valuable space and provides highest concept. SIMATIC S7-1200 allows you to design a controller system to exactly fit your application needs.

A modular concept for compact automation in a scalable design.
The SIMATIC S7-1200 features an integrated PROFINET interface, powerful integrated technology Functions and a highly scalable and flexible design. This enables simple communication, efficient solutions for technological tasks, and perfectly fits individual automation requirements in a wide variety of applications.Basic Controller SIMATIC S7-1200, Basic Panels and TIA Portal
