Compatibility of 6ES7515-2FM02-0AB0 and 6ES7515-2AM01-0AB0

Yes, 6ES7515-2AM01-0AB0 can generally replace 6ES7515-2FM02-0AB0. Both are FM communication modules for SIMATIC S7-1500, but the -2AM01-0AB0 is a newer revision with potentially improved features and firmware.

Important Considerations:

  • Software/Firmware: Ensure your TIA Portal project and PLC firmware are compatible with the new module. An update might be necessary.
  • Functionality: Verify that all functionalities supported by the -2FM02-0AB0 are also available in the -2AM01-0AB0, based on your application requirements.

For detailed compatibility information and firmware requirements, please refer to the Siemens Support article: Siemens Support ID: 109773816 and the hardware configuration list in TIA Portal.
