Product Details
Specifications provided for reference. Verify critical details against official manufacturer documentation before installation.
Product Overview
The 6ES5318-8MB11 is a SIMATIC S5 ET 200U DP Siemens interface module (IM 318-B), functioning as a slave interface coupling ET 200U I/O stations to PROFIBUS-DP using Siemens-specific protocol (DP Siemens). Installed on the ET 200U rack, it enables distributed I/O in control systems, communicating with a master such as IM 308-B. Common in standard industrial automation leveraging legacy S5-100U I/O, it serves applications requiring a PROFIBUS-based I/O interface using Siemens-proprietary protocol.
Best Suited For
- Integration with ET 200U I/O racks using S5-100U modules
- PROFIBUS-DP Siemens (DP Siemens) bus networks
- Retrofit or expansion of SIMATIC S5 distributed I/O systems
- Slave I/O station requiring switch-selectable slow-mode operation
