PROFINET IM 155-6PN Basic interface module

The IM155-6PN BA is designed mainly for simple PROFINET applications with moderate station expansion of up to 12 modules (max. 192 IO signals). All I/O modules apart from PROFIsafe can be used. It is therefore the economical solution for simple machine and retrofit tasks.

IM 155-6PN Standard PROFINET interface module

The IM155-6PN Standard is designed mainly for standard PROFINET applications with average station expansion of up to 32 modules (max. 512 IO signals). All I/O modules, including PROFIsafe, can be used. In addition, the station can be expanded with as many as 16 IP67 modules of the SIMATIC ET 200AL series using BA-Send/BU-Send.

IM 155-6PN High Feature PROFINET interface module

The IM155-6PN High Feature is designed mainly for PROFINET applications with a high, flexible demand for functions, as well as a large station expansion of up to 64 modules (max. 1024 IO signals). All I/O modules, including PROFIsafe, can be used. In addition, the station can be expanded with as many as 16 IP67 modules of the SIMATIC ET 200AL series using BA-Send/BU-Send.

Unlike the other interface modules, the IM155-6PN HF supports the following additional functions:

• Use of BusAdapters with fiber-optic cable connection
• Increased data volume of up to 1440 bytes for both input and output data and up to 288 bytes per module
• Multi Hot Swap (withdrawing and insertion of any number of I/O modules during operation without impairing the communication with the remaining modules)
• S2 redundancy
• Isochronous mode from 250 µs
• Oversampling
• MSI/MSO
• Shared device with up to four controllers
• Up to four subslots per module

IM 155-6PN High Speed PROFIBUS interface module

The IM155-6PN High Speed is designed mainly for PROFIBUS applications with very short response times. All I/O modules, including PROFIsafe, can be used.

Compared to the IM155-6PN HF, the IM155-6PN HS has the following functional differences:

• For input and output data with up to 32 bytes per module, max. 30 modules per station
• Isochronous mode from 125 µs
• MRPD
• Performance upgrade for PROFINET
• Shared devices in combination with isochronous mode

IM 155-6DP High Feature PROFIBUS interface module

The IM155-DP High Feature is designed mainly for PROFIBUS applications with average station expansion of up to 32 modules (max. 512 IO signals). All I/O modules, including PROFIsafe, can be used. In addition, the station can be expanded with as many as 16 IP67 modules of the SIMATIC ET 200AL series using BA-Send/BU-Send.
