S5 To S7 Upgrades

Upgrading your existing SIEMENS Simatic S5 system to the current S7 standard has many benefits including:-

Increased spares availability and reduced costs
Greater reliability
Improved programming interface allowing highly complex code to be constructed quickly and easily
Technically superior with higher microprocessor speeds and greater memory

Improve Your System

When upgrading to S7, it is not always practical to replace like for like. With the S7 system, new possibilities open up and significant improvements can be made to your existing setup. For example, a complex mimic panel could be replaced by a touch display HMI. This would reduce I/O greatly and may even be more cost effective than purchasing a high number of signal modules.
