6ES7215-1BG40-0XB0 - Siemens PLC S7 1200 CPU 1215C

At the core of the Siemens 6ES7215-1BG40-0XB0 is the robust S7 1200 CPU 1215C, offering seamless integration between digital, analog, and networked automation tasks. It operates on a wide-range AC power supply of 85–264 V at 47–63 Hz, ensuring stable performance even in facilities with fluctuating voltage conditions. The onboard I/O set includes 14 digital inputs (24 V DC) for direct sensor connectivity, 10 relay outputs rated at 2 A for controlling motors, solenoids, and other electromechanical devices, 2 analog inputs (0–10 V DC) for measurement devices, and 2 analog outputs (0–20 mA DC) for actuators and control valves. This combination provides exceptional versatility for process and machine control applications.

Dual PROFINET ports enable flexible networking in line or star topologies, simplifying communication with HMIs, SCADA systems, and distributed I/O modules. With a generous 200 KB program/data memory, the PLC can execute large and complex control programs without compromising speed or reliability. Compact in design (11.10 × 13.60 × 8.50 cm) and weighing 0.502 kg, it is well-suited for space-limited control cabinets. As a PM300: Active Product Lifecycle model, the 6ES7215-1BG40-0XB0 offers guaranteed long-term availability, firmware updates, and Siemens-certified technical support. Manufactured in China under stringent quality controls, it delivers consistent performance across diverse industrial environments, making it a trusted choice for mission-critical automation.
