Siemens 6ES5 375-0LD21 SIMATIC S5 RAM Memory Module

Description

The Siemens 6ES5 375-0LD21 is a 16 KByte RAM memory submodule for the legacy SIMATIC S5 automation system. This module is essential for storing user programs and process data within S5-135U and S5-155U series controllers. As a volatile memory component, it relies on a backup battery to retain data during power-off conditions. It is a critical component for the maintenance and operation of existing S5-based industrial machinery.

FAQ

Yes, this is a RAM (Random Access Memory) module. It requires a backup battery on the S5 CPU rack to retain its program and data when the main power is off. Without a functional backup battery, the memory will be erased upon power loss.

This RAM module allows for easy and fast program changes directly from the programming device. EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) and EEPROM (Electrically Erasable...) modules are non-volatile, meaning they hold their program without battery backup. This RAM module is ideal for program development and applications where data is frequently updated.

This memory submodule is specifically designed for the higher-end Siemens SIMATIC S5-135U and S5-155U programmable logic controllers. It is not compatible with smaller S5 systems like the S5-95U or S5-115U. Always verify compatibility with your specific CPU model's technical manual.
