Siemens

Most Siemens automation parts are bought by article number, the string beginning 6ES7, 6AV2 or 6GK5 printed on every module. Founded in 1847 and headquartered in Munich, Siemens builds the SIMATIC controllers, SCALANCE networks and SINAMICS drives that plant engineers meet on almost every site.

Seven Star LLC, an independent supplier, lists Siemens PLC and I/O modules, HMI panels, industrial Ethernet switches, drives, protection relays, temperature transmitters and gas analyzer spare parts for projects in Oman and the GCC.

Siemens product families on this page

Controller hardware covers the SIMATIC S7-1200 (CPU 1214C with SM 1223 signal modules) and the S7-1500 (CPU 1515-2 PN), with ET 200SP and ET 200M distributed I/O and their IM 155-6 and IM 153-2 interface modules. Operator panels include the KTP700 Basic and TP700 Comfort. SCALANCE XC208 managed switches handle industrial Ethernet. Drives are represented by the SINAMICS G120C compact inverter and the G120X for pumps and fans. From the power side come the SIPROTEC 7SJ85 feeder protection relay and SIVACON S8 switchboards, and from process instrumentation the SITRANS TH320 head-mounted temperature transmitter.

Where Siemens equipment is used

SIMATIC controllers and ET 200 I/O run packaged units, skids and whole process lines in water treatment, oil and gas, cement, food and manufacturing plants. SINAMICS drives control pumps, fans and conveyors, SCALANCE switches form the control network, and SIPROTEC relays protect medium voltage feeders and motors.

Ordering Siemens parts: what we need

Send the complete article number, the functional status or version printed on the module and, for CPUs, the firmware version your project was written for. For drives add power, supply voltage, filter option and fieldbus version. For SIPROTEC relays the long order number or product code is required, because it fixes the hardware and function package. A nameplate photo answers most of these points at once.
