Siemens 6ES7151-7AA21-0AB0 SIMATIC ET 200S IM151-7 CPU
A 24 V DC ET 200S interface CPU with 128 kB work memory, an integrated PROFIBUS DP slave interface and mandatory SIMATIC Micro Memory Card.
Key Information
6ES7151-7AA21-0AB0 identifies the SIMATIC DP IM151-7 CPU for ET 200S. It combines distributed-I/O interfacing and local program execution with 128 kB of integrated work memory and a nine-pole D-sub PROFIBUS DP connection operating as a DP slave.
The CPU is supplied without a battery and requires a SIMATIC Micro Memory Card for load memory and maintenance-free backup. Siemens lists the product as a cancelled spare part, making the exact order number and stored application essential during maintenance.
Functions
- Executes a local SIMATIC control program within an ET 200S distributed I/O station.
- Exchanges station data with the higher-level PROFIBUS DP master through the integrated slave interface.
- Provides 128 kB of non-expandable integrated work memory.
- Uses a SIMATIC Micro Memory Card with capacity up to 8 MB as plug-in load memory.
- Supplies as much as 700 mA at 5 V DC to the ET 200S backplane bus.
- Supports engineering in the documented STEP 7 Classic or TIA Portal contexts.

Installation
- De-energize the ET 200S station and retain the exact module order before changing the interface CPU.
- Protect and verify the SIMATIC Micro Memory Card because it carries the load memory and maintenance-free backup context.
- Record the PROFIBUS address, station configuration, baud-rate environment and higher-level master assignment.
- Check the total ET 200S backplane current demand against the available 700 mA output.
- Use the supported STEP 7 hardware catalog entry and preserve any required Hardware Support Package.
- After replacement, validate DP diagnostics, local program execution, station I/O addressing and retained process data.
Lifecycle
- Siemens classifies 6ES7151-7AA21-0AB0 as a cancelled product available through the spare-part service context.
- The product cancellation effective date is 1 October 2023, so long-term planning should distinguish immediate service from system modernization.
- No direct modern replacement should be selected without reviewing the ET 200S station, PROFIBUS master and local CPU program.
- Archive the STEP 7 project, Micro Memory Card content and complete station hardware configuration before migration.
- A platform change can affect I/O modules, terminal modules, network engineering and the local control architecture.
