CPU 315-2 PN/DP

The CPU 315-2 PN/DP is a CPU with a medium-sized program memory. It is used in installations which have distributed automation structures in addition to a centralized I/O. It can be used as a PROFINET IO Controller and as a standard PROFIBUS DP master in the SIMATIC S7-300. The 315-2 PN/DP CPU can also be used as distributed intelligence (DP slave).

The CPU 315-2 PN/DP is an ideal platform for simple technology tasks implemented in software, e.g.:

Controlling motion with Easy Motion Control.
Solving closed-loop control tasks with STEP 7 blocks or the runtime software Standard PID Control/Modular PID Control

Extended process diagnostics are possible using SIMATIC S7-PDIAG.

The integrated combination possibilities of the CPU allow networked automation solutions to be implemented without the need for additional components.
