Siemens 6ES7512-1DK01-0AB0 CPU 1512SP-1 PN Central Processing Unit (SIMATIC ET 200SP, PROFINET) CAN Electric — Industrial Automation Parts Supplier

The S7-1500 CPU that lives inside the ET 200SP station

The 6ES7512-1DK01-0AB0 is the CPU 1512SP-1 PN, a CPU of the SIMATIC DP range designed for the ET 200SP distributed I/O system. Mounted on the ET 200SP base unit, it runs the station autonomously as a PROFINET IO controller and IO device, expanding with ET 200SP I/O modules rather than S7-1500 signal modules.

BusAdapter-based port configuration

The PROFINET interface carries three ports: port 3 is an integrated RJ45 socket; ports 1 and 2 are fitted with a BusAdapter selected for the cabling — RJ45, M12, FastConnect, LC fiber, SCRJ fiber or hybrid variants per the compatible list in the data sheet. The BusAdapter for ports 1 and 2 is required for operation and is not supplied with the CPU.

Spare-part status with a listed successor

Siemens lists the 6ES7512-1DK01-0AB0 as a spare part (PM410), cancelled since 01.10.2024. The successor CPU 1512SP-1 PN is 6ES7512-1DM03-0AB0 with 400 KB program / 2 MB data memory and 6 ns bit performance.

Data per the official Siemens Industry Mall product page and the official Siemens CPU 1512SP-1 PN data sheet for 6ES7512-1DK01-0AB0; confirm the current Siemens data sheet before ordering large quantities.

Autonomous distributed station

The CPU runs the ET 200SP station as a standalone controller, keeps its own program and data, and exchanges data with a higher-level controller over PROFINET; the station can also operate as a shared device for up to four IO controllers.

IRT and isochronous operation

IRT traffic, MRP media redundancy and isochronous mode (minimum OB 6x cycle 625 µs) support closed-loop motion and drive tasks at the distributed station level.

Modular ET 200SP expansion

Digital, analog, technology and communication modules clip onto the ET 200SP base unit beside the CPU; bus adapters, server modules and base units are selected to match the station layout in TIA Portal.

LED diagnostics without a display

RUN/STOP, ERROR, MAINT, supply-voltage and LINK TX/RX LEDs report station state at the module; detailed diagnostics are read through the engineering station or web server.

Distributed machine cells on PROFINET

Assembly lines, conveyor segments, packaging machines and processing stations that sit far from the main cabinet: the station keeps its own control logic, communicates over PROFINET IRT, and pulls its I/O from ET 200SP modules local to the machine.

Retrofits of existing ET 200SP stations

Where an older station CPU fails, this spare-part article keeps the existing ET 200SP hardware in service; for new projects the successor 6ES7512-1DM03-0AB0 should be specified.

Condition stated in writing

We are an independent channel trader, not Siemens and not a factory-authorized distributor. Every unit supplied is genuine new, and that condition is written on every quote.

Stock you can plan a project around

We trade a broad Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 and ET 200SP inventory; the Related Siemens list on this page shows live USD list prices with EXW Hong Kong terms, and each quote states the exact quantity available.

Export handled on one thread

Cross-border requests are routine: a single thread covers quote, compliance note and dispatch, so buyers in India, Egypt, the Netherlands, Thailand, Malaysia, the Middle East and South America deal with one team.

The CPU 1512SP-1 PN mounts on an ET 200SP base unit (BU-type) and is configured in STEP 7 (TIA Portal). A SIMATIC Memory Card is required; a BusAdapter for ports 1 and 2 is required for the PROFINET link and is quoted separately.
