Technical Specifications

Processor and Memory

The clock speed reaches 500 MHz , providing fast instruction processing. The memory capacity is 128 MB , sufficient for complex control programs and data handling. This combination enables the CPU to manage multiple axes, I/O points, and communication tasks. Consequently, users can implement advanced motion control and logic functions without performance degradation.

Power Requirements

The CPU operates at 24 VDC , matching standard industrial power systems. This voltage level provides compatibility with most automation panels. The robust construction, weighing approximately 6 kg (13.228 lbs) , indicates high-quality materials and durability. Thus, the 6FC5210-0DF03-0AA0 withstands demanding industrial environments.

Operating Temperature

The minimum operating temperature is 0°C , while the maximum reaches 55°C . This range covers typical factory floor conditions. The CPU operates reliably within these specified temperature limits. For best results, install the unit in a well-ventilated control cabinet. Avoid placing the device near heat sources or in direct sunlight.

Storage Temperature

The storage temperature can go as low as -20°C . This allows safe transport and preservation when you are not using the unit. During storage, protect the CPU from moisture and physical damage. Therefore, you can keep spare units on hand without concern for cold damage during warehouse storage.

Altitude Specification

The CPU operates correctly at altitudes below 2000 meters (6562 feet) . This makes the unit applicable for use in diverse geographical locations. For installations above this altitude, the reduced air density may affect cooling. Consequently, derating or forced cooling might become necessary for high-altitude sites.

RoHS Compliance

Please note that this part is not RoHS compliant . This status may influence its adoption depending on your regional regulatory requirements. Some jurisdictions restrict non-RoHS components for new installations. Therefore, check your local environmental regulations before purchasing this CPU.

Installation Guide
