About the Siemens 6ES7431-1KF20-0AB0
The Siemens 6ES7431-1KF20-0AB0 is the fast SM 431: it converts each channel in 52 µs and all 8 in 0.42 ms, where the 6ES7431-1KF00-0AB0 needs 200 ms. It covers the same voltage, current and resistance ranges as the 1KF00, at 14-bit resolution. Siemens's data sheet gives a 15 µs input filter time constant and 4.9 W typical power loss. SiePortal shows its phase-out announced on 1 October 2025 and its product cancellation on 1 October 2026.
What is the 6ES7431-1KF20-0AB0 used for?
It reads fast-changing analog signals into an S7-400 CPU, where a slower module would miss changes.
Lifecycle and successor
Discontinued.
Before you order
What to photograph or confirm so the right unit is quoted.
Check the order number on the module: 1KF20 is the fast version.
