EL6731-siemens programmable logic controller

About EL6731-siemens programmable logic controller

Product Description

The PROFIBUS master terminal EL6731 supports the PROFIBUS protocol with all its features. Within an EtherCAT Terminal network, it enables the integration of any PROFIBUS devices. Thanks to the PROFIBUS chip developed in-house, the terminal is equipped with the latest version of the PROFIBUS technology including high-precision isochronous mode for axis control and expanded diagnostic options. These masters are the only ones that support different poll rates for the slaves. Features:

• Cycle times from 200 s are possible.
• PROFIBUS DP, PROFIBUS DP-V1, PROFIBUS DP-V2
• master and slave up to 12 Mbit/s
• powerful parameter and diagnostics interfaces
• The error management for each bus user is freely configurable.
• It is possible to read the bus configuration and automatically assign the "GSD files.

Like the FC3101 PROFIBUS PCI card, the EL6731 can be used for connection to PROFIBUS networks. The terminal, however, enables a more space-saving implementation since no PCI slots are required in the Industrial PC.

Seamless Network Integration

The EL6731 excels at bridging EtherCAT and PROFIBUS DP platforms, facilitating transparent data exchange in industrial automation environments. Its gateway functionality ensures smooth inter-network communication, supporting up to 125 PROFIBUS participants with typical response times of less than 1 millisecond.


Built for Industrial Reliability

Designed for demanding factory settings, the EL6731 includes diagnostic LEDs for swift status identification and electrical isolation between bus systems to prevent interference. Its robust construction, IP20 rating, and DIN rail mounting guarantee dependable performance in a wide range of applications.


Easy Installation and Operation

With a compact footprint of just 12 mm width, the EL6731 terminal fits seamlessly into existing control cabinets. Power is delivered efficiently through the E-bus, and standard PROFIBUS twisted pair cabling ensures straightforward setup without special connectors or extra power supplies.
