Description

The 6GF1018-3AA is a SIMATIC VS130 evaluation unit designed for intelligent training capabilities supporting up to 15 different types within machine vision automation applications. Manufactured by Siemens, this unit operates on a 24 VDC power supply at 2.5 A and includes 8 digital inputs and 6 digital outputs for localized signal interfacing.

The 6GF1018-3AA features integrated RS-232 and PROFIBUS-DP communication interfaces to facilitate data exchange with broader industrial automation networks. The unit is housed in an IP40-rated enclosure measuring 15.20 x 7.60 x 17.80 cm (with a component frame size of 170 x 140 x 76 mm) and weighs 0.50 kg. As an obsolete lifecycle product supplied as part of the SIMATIC VS130 complete package, it is utilized primarily for legacy system maintenance, hardware replacement, and operational continuity in established machine vision installations.
