SIMATIC S7-1200 Basic Controllers are impressive because they are fully equipped with technological functions and integrated I/Os while also featuring a particularly compact, space-savings design.
They are the intelligent choice for automation tasks for small-scale projects. The S7-1200 CPUs with Safety Integrated solve standard and safety-related tasks – without additional hardware. They do not require wiring work and are considerably more flexible when adapting safety circuits and managing operating modes. Thanks to standardized telecontrol protocols, you can connect SIMATIC S7-1200 open loop controls directly to your control room without doing programming work.

A decisive benefit is the integration of the S7-1200 into the Totally Integrated Automation Portal (TIA Portal): SIMATIC Controller and SIMATIC Panels thus rely on shared data storage, a uniform operating concept and centralized services. This means considerably less engineering work for you. The user-friendly and intuitive operability of the TIA Portal as well as the integrated system diagnosis contribute to efficient work.

SIMATIC Controllers support scalable and, in every individual case, cost-efficient automation solutions when it comes to performance and functionality.
The functionality of the SIMATIC S7-1200 Controller is seamlessly continued by the SIMATIC S7-1500 open loop controls developed for more complex tasks. This assures you of uniform processes, meaning optimum efficiency in engineering, operations and maintenance, and when updating your controller.
