Keyence KV-8000A PLC CPU Unit
The Keyence KV-8000A is a high-speed CPU unit for the KV-8000 building-block PLC. It offers 64 MB memory, 1,500 k program steps, and built-in EtherNet/IP with an operation recorder.
The Keyence KV-7500 acts as the processor for the KV-7000 series building-block PLC. Specifically, it provides 64 MB of CPU memory and a program capacity of roughly 1,500 k steps. Machine builders often use it for packaging lines, assembly cells, and general factory automation.
Additionally, the unit executes basic instructions in a minimum of 0.96 ns. Applied instructions run in a minimum of 5.75 ns, and double-precision floating-point operations finish in a minimum of 58 ns. Such speed supports fast sequencing and precise data handling.
Furthermore, the KV-7500 CPU unit includes a built-in Ethernet port (RJ-45) for EtherNet/IP communication. KV STUDIO software connects directly for programming and monitoring. Therefore, commissioning and troubleshooting stay straightforward for maintenance teams.
The CPU memory capacity is 64 MB, and the program capacity reaches approximately 1,500 k steps. First, the unit supports expanded ladder, KV Script, and mnemonic programming. Second, the max I/O points reach 3,072 for expansion via backplane modules. Third, instruction execution remains fast across basic, applied, and floating-point operations.
Built-in Ethernet ports support EtherNet/IP and KV STUDIO connections. Moreover, communication expansion is available through backplane modules such as the KV-XL202 RS-232C serial unit. However, no other built-in fieldbus ports are present. Hence, network variety comes from add-on modules.
The system accepts up to 16 installable units with KV-7000 expansion. With a KV-EB1 extension, that figure rises to 48 units. Consequently, the platform scales from small machines to larger distributed setups.
Supply voltage is 24 VDC (-15%/+20%) with KV-7000 expansion only. When paired with KV-5000/3000 expansion, the unit accepts 24 VDC (±10%). Internal current consumption stays at 200 mA or less, which keeps panel heat low.
Operating temperature ranges from 0 to +55 °C without freezing, using KV-7000 expansion. Storage temperature spans -25 to +75 °C. Relative humidity stays between 5 and 95% RH without condensation. Besides, no official protection rating is available. The CPU weighs approximately 0.27 kg, and the KV-B1 battery adds about 0.01 kg.
Mount the KV-7500 on the base unit and secure it with the fixing screws. First, confirm the power supply matches 24 VDC and wire the terminals with correct polarity. Next, attach expansion modules to the backplane in the planned order. Then, connect the Ethernet cable for programming and network access. After that, load the program through KV STUDIO and run a test cycle. Finally, install the KV-B1 battery to protect retained data during power loss.
