Programming environment covers the standard Siemens set — LAD, FBD, STL, SCL, GRAPH — plus DCP and DNS, so the same station can host sequential, structured-text, and graph-style logic without a second toolchain on the bench. Open-protocol reach runs alongside PROFINET: MODBUS TCP, TCP/IP, UDP, DHCP, SNMP, HTTP and HTTPS (standard and user pages), LLDP, and DNS are all present, which is what bridges a Modbus legacy drop or a plant-floor SCADA into the same controller. Hardware clock with 100 Mbps ports; the PROFINET interface is the one the integrator watches for cable plant and switch selection. ## Process image, CMs, and I/O capacity Process image is 32 kbyte on the inputs side and 32 kbyte on the outputs side, and all of it stays in the process image rather than being paged — a real ceiling to verify against your I/O count when you size the station. Up to 6 communication modules can be inserted in total across PROFINET and PROFIBUS; up to 40 PROFINET devices per port is the stated probe ceiling, so the CM expansion budget is what limits a retrofit that adds a second PROFINET subnet or a PROFIBUS legacy drop. 16... (continuation truncated in evidence) — the field for that count is incomplete in this listing and the figure is not reproduced here. ## What it does on the panel and PID-Temp blocks with integrated optimization are present, which makes the CPU a fit for valve-positioning and temperature loops without an add-on module; I²t is listed at 0.02 A²·s on the device record. Forcing, I&M data records I&M0 through I&M3, and ERROR / MAINT LEDs give commissioning and traceability a working surface during FAT and SAT. Footprint is 35 mm wide × 147 mm tall × 129 mm deep — the standard ET 200SP slice width — so the station gain is one slot of DIN real estate per CPU, and the rest of the headroom goes to I/O and CMs. That's the number that governs a cabinet-edge or an unheated enclosure placement; the storage limit is not reproduced here because it isn't on the listing. PROFIsafe is not supported on this CPU — safety logic needs a separate F-CPU in the station, and any PROFIsafe addressing has to be planned around that boundary from the BOM stage, not retrofitted.","metaTitle":"Siemens 6ES7513-1AL02-0AB0 CPU, PROFINET IRT, -40–70 °C","metaDescription":"Siemens 6ES7513-1AL02-0AB0 S7-1500 CPU with PROFINET IRT, MRP Automanager, Modbus TCP, 32 kbyte process image, and 100 Mbps ports.
