Warning
You can use the following F-CPUs in S7 Distributed Safety: IM 151-7 F-CPU, CPU 315F-2
DP, CPU 315F-2 PN/DP, CPU 317F-2 DP, CPU 317F-2 PN/DP and CPU 416F-2. Note that
these F-CPUs cannot be used in S7 F/FH Systems.
You can use the following F-CPUs in S7 F/FH Systems: CPU 414-4H and CPU 417-4H.
Note that these F-CPUs can not be used in S7 Distributed Safety.
Fail-safe I/O
The following fail-safe I/O are available:
For S7 Distributed Safety and S7 F/FH Systems:
•
S7-300 fail-safe signal modules (F-SMs)
•
ET 200S fail-safe power and electronic modules (ET 200S F-modules)
•
ET 200eco fail-safe I/O module (ET 200eco F-module)
•
Fail-safe DP standard slaves
For S7 Distributed Safety:
•
ET 200pro fail-safe electronic modules
•
Fail-safe I/O standard device
S7-300 Fail-safe Signal Modules
The following fail-safe signal modules (F-SMs) are available:
•
Fail-safe digital input modules:
–
SM 326; DI 8 ☓ NAMUR, with diagnostic interrupt
–
SM 326; DI 24 ☓ 24 VDC, with diagnostic interrupt
•
Fail-safe digital output modules:
–
SM 326; DO 10 ☓ 24 VDC/2 A, with diagnostic interrupt
–
SM 326; DO 8 ☓ 24 VDC/2 A, with diagnostic interrupt
•
Fail-safe analog input module: SM 336; AI 6 ☓ 13 bits, with diagnostic interrupt
F-SMs can also be used as standard SMs with standard CPUs in standard applications.
From a user standpoint, the F-SMs can be distinguished from most standard SMs in that
they have diagnostic interrupt capability.
In S7 Distributed Safety, the F-SMs can be operated as decentralized modules in ET 200M
and as centralized modules in an S7-300 station.
In S7 F/FH Systems, the F-SMs can generally be operated only in the ET 200M distributed
I/O system.
Exception: The SM 326; DO 8 ☓ DC 24V/2A can only be operated as a fail-safe signal
module. You can, however, installed it centrally with all F-CPUs of the S7-300 spectrum with:
•
CPU 315F-2 DP (6ES7 315-6FF01-0AB0) beginning with firmware version V 2.0.9 and
•
CPU 315F-2 DP (6ES7 317-6FF00-0AB0) beginning with firmware version V 2.1.4.
The module can be operated in a distributed configuration in in S7 Distributed Safety.
