Siemens SIMATIC S7-400, CPU 416-3 6ES7416-3XL00-0AB0

Specification Sheet for Siemens SIMATIC S7-400, CPU 417-4 (6ES7417-4XT05-0AB0)

Basic Information

• Product Model: 6ES7417-4XT05-0AB0

• Product Series: SIMATIC S7-400

• CPU Type: CPU 417-4

• Application Areas: Suitable for large-scale industrial automation systems in industries such as Chemical, Process, Oil & Gas, Automotive, and Manufacturing.

Hardware Characteristics

• Integrated Interfaces:

• 1st Interface: MPI (Multi-Point Interface) at 12 Mbit/s for communication with programming devices and other PLCs.

• 2nd Interface: PROFIBUS DP, enabling high-speed communication with distributed I/O devices and intelligent field devices.

• 3rd/4th Interface: Plug-in IFM (Interface Module) slots, allowing flexible expansion with additional communication or special function modules.

• Power Supply: Typically requires an external 24 V DC power supply, with a tolerance range of 19.2 V to 28.8 V.

• Power Protection: External surge protection devices are recommended for the power supply cables.

Memory Configuration

• Working Memory: Total 30 MB, divided into:

• 15 MB for Code Memory (Program Memory), storing the PLC program and logic.

• 15 MB for Data Memory, allocated for storing variables, status information, and temporary data.

• Retentive Memory: Additional memory (not separately specified) for retaining data blocks across power cycles.

Programming Environment

• Supported Software: Programming and configuration is typically done using Siemens STEP 7 software, with version V5.5 + SP1 or higher recommended for optimal compatibility and features.

Processing Capabilities

• The CPU 417-4 offers high-speed processing capabilities suitable for complex control tasks and fast data processing requirements.

• Specific operation times (e.g., Bit, Word, Fixed-Point, and Floating-Point Arithmetic) are not detailed here but are generally optimized for industrial automation applications.

Additional Features

• Program Block Quantities:

• Maximum number of Data Blocks (DBs): High capacity, not specifically limited but constrained by overall memory size.

• Maximum number of Function Blocks (FBs) and Functions (FCs): High capacity, not specifically limited but each with a maximum size consideration (not detailed here).

• Types and quantities of Organization Blocks (OBs): Includes standard OBs like OB1 (main program cycle), OB10 (warm restart), OB35 (timed interrupt), and many others, with flexibility to handle various events and interrupts.

• Counters and Timers:

• S7 Counters: Unlimited, constrained only by available RAM capacity, with retentivity to retain values across power loss.

• S7 Timers: Unlimited, similarly constrained by RAM, with retentivity for reliable timing operations.

Notes

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

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

• Additional features, options, and accessories may be available to further enhance the functionality and performance of the CPU 417-4.
