Product Overview
SIMATIC S7-1500F6ES7517-3FP00-0AB0 is the SIMATIC S7-1500F CPU 1517F-3 PN/DP fail-safe controller. Siemens specifies 3 MB program work memory, 8 MB data work memory and 2 ns bit performance.
The first interface is PROFINET IRT with a two-port switch, the second is PROFINET RT and the third is PROFIBUS. A SIMATIC Memory Card is required, and the safety project plus CPU firmware must be included in any replacement plan.

FAQ
Six model checksHow does 6ES7517-3FP00-0AB0 implement its Fail-Safe Network Profile role?
6ES7517-3FP00-0AB0 is the SIMATIC S7-1500F CPU 1517F-3 PN/DP fail-safe controller. Siemens specifies 3 MB program work memory, 8 MB data work memory and 2 ns bit performance.
Which SIMATIC S7-1500F CPU 1517F-3 PN/DP family context applies to 6ES7517-3FP00-0AB0?
6ES7517-3FP00-0AB0 belongs to the SIMATIC S7-1500F family and should be selected within that documented system context.
Which Data work memory value defines the Fail-Safe Network Profile configuration for 6ES7517-3FP00-0AB0?
Data work memory is documented as 8 MB; retain the complete model because adjacent variants can differ.
Before commissioning 6ES7517-3FP00-0AB0, which Back up the safety project check matters most?
Archive the complete TIA Portal project and safety signature.
Can 6ES7517-3FP00-0AB0 be selected without reviewing its Fail-Safe Network Profile boundary?
No. Confirm the complete 6ES7517-3FP00-0AB0 designation, the associated system configuration and the documented interfaces before replacement.
Why must the full 6ES7517-3FP00-0AB0 identity be retained for the SIMATIC S7-1500F CPU 1517F-3 PN/DP enquiry?
The full 6ES7517-3FP00-0AB0 identity separates this configuration from related variants with different hardware, licensing, interfaces or compatibility.
