More about S7-1500 digital inputs and how to choose them

SIEMENS SIMATIC S7-1500 digital input modules

Digital input modules transfer binary signals from sensors, push buttons, limit switches, relays and other devices to the PLC. Based on the input state, the PLC evaluates whether the relevant signal is active or inactive.

The S7-1500 range includes digital inputs for standard 24 V DC signals, higher voltage levels, safety applications and special NAMUR sensors. Individual modules differ in the number of channels, version, diagnostic functions and input signal processing speed.

Standard 24 V DC inputs

The most common modules are designed for standard 24 V DC binary signals. Versions with 16, 32 or 64 digital inputs are available.

Fail-safe F-DI inputs

F-DI fail-safe modules are designed for safety input signals, for example from emergency stop buttons, safety doors or light curtains, and communicate via PROFIsafe.

NAMUR digital inputs

Special DI NAMUR modules allow corresponding industrial NAMUR sensors to be connected and their diagnostic functions to be used.

24–125 V UC and 230 V AC inputs

Digital input modules for 24–125 V UC or 230 V AC are also available for applications using other voltage levels.

How to choose the right S7-1500 digital input module?

When replacing an existing module, the safest method is to use the complete SIEMENS order number. When selecting a different version, we recommend comparing in particular:

  • number of digital inputs,
  • input voltage and signal type,
  • BA, HF or special version,
  • processing speed and adjustable input delay,
  • diagnostic functions of the module,
  • requirements for safety functions and PROFIsafe,
  • possible support for NAMUR sensors,
  • compatibility with the hardware configuration in TIA Portal.

New and refurbished digital input modules from stock

For current SIMATIC S7-1500 digital input modules, we primarily check the availability of a new original SIEMENS part. We use an extensive European warehouse network with more than 900,000 industrial spare parts.

This also enables us to source refurbished, older, obsolete or hard-to-find digital input modules. If you cannot find a specific order number in the e-shop, send it to us and we will prepare a quotation with price and delivery time.

SIPLUS S7-1500 digital inputs

Selected SIPLUS S7-1500 versions are also available for applications operating under more demanding environmental conditions. You can find them in a separate SIPLUS digital inputs subcategory.

Frequently asked questions

Is the module order number enough for an enquiry?

Yes. Ideally, send us the complete SIEMENS order number from the nameplate, for example 6ES7521-1BL00-0AB0, and the required quantity. We will prepare a quotation with price and delivery time, usually within 1 hour.

Can you supply a digital input module that is not listed in the e-shop?

Yes. We also check other digital input modules in European warehouses. Send us the order number and we will prepare a quotation based on current availability.

Do you arrange repairs of S7-1500 digital input modules?

Yes. You can send the faulty module to FOXON. We will arrange diagnostics, repair and subsequent functional testing at a specialised European repair centre with which we have long-term cooperation.

Can I replace a digital input module with another type?

Not always. The number of inputs, input voltage, signal type, diagnostic and safety functions and hardware configuration in TIA Portal must be checked.

What is the difference between BA and HF?

The versions differ in technical parameters, diagnostic options and functions. When replacing a module, we recommend using the exact order number of the original module and checking its configuration in TIA Portal.

Do you also supply fail-safe digital inputs?

Yes. The S7-1500 range includes F-DI modules for safety-related input signals and PROFIsafe communication.
