About the Siemens 6ES7455-1VS00-0AE0
The Siemens 6ES7455-1VS00-0AE0 is the FM 455 S, the step and pulse version of the S7-400 FM 455 controller module; the FM 455 C (6ES7455-0VS00-0AE0) has 16 analog outputs instead of its 32 digital ones. Siemens's data sheet gives 16 control channels, 16 analog inputs (8 with Pt100), 16 digital inputs, 32 digital outputs at 0.1 A, a 50 mm wide housing and 10.7 W typical power loss. SiePortal shows its phase-out announced on 1 October 2025 and its product cancellation on 1 October 2026.
What is the 6ES7455-1VS00-0AE0 used for?
It runs up to 16 control loops that act through step or pulse outputs, for an S7-400 CPU.
Lifecycle and successor
Discontinued.
Before you order
What to photograph or confirm so the right unit is quoted.
Check the order number: 1VS00 is the step and pulse FM 455 S, 0VS00 the continuous FM 455 C.
