6ES7431-1KF00-0AB0 – Siemens SM 431 Analog Input Module · 8 AI · 13 bit
Siemens · SIMATIC S7-400 · isolated analog input · 8 channels · U / I / resistor
Product Overview
- 6ES7431-1KF00-0AB0 – SM 431 analog input module for S7-400.
- Provides 8 isolated inputs, 13-bit resolution with overrange.
- Supports voltage (±10V, ±1V, 1–5V), current (±20mA, 4–20mA), and resistance (0–600Ω).
- Built-in interference suppression (50/60 Hz) and ±0.02% temperature error.
- Ideal for process automation, machine control, and legacy S7-400 systems.
Oiltech Controls’s Insight
- This SM 431 excels in mixed-signal environments – voltage, current, and resistance on one module.
- 13-bit resolution provides reliable data for precise closed-loop control.
- Wide input range and 200 m shielded cable length make it flexible for remote sensors.
- No diagnostics function – keep this in mind for fault-tolerant designs; external monitoring may be needed.
- We recommend this module for upgrading or expanding existing S7-400 I/O racks.

FAQ – Expert Q&A
- Q: Can I mix voltage and current inputs on the same module?
A: Yes. Each of the 8 channels is configurable individually for voltage, current, or resistance. However, resistance uses 4 channels max. - Q: What is the effective resolution for 4–20 mA signals?
A: 13-bit including sign gives approx. 0.012% of range. For 4–20 mA, the usable span is 16 mA, providing ~0.8 µA per bit. - Q: Does this module support HART communication?
A: No. The SM 431 is a standard analog input. For HART, you need a dedicated HART module or external multiplexer. - Q: How do I handle 2-wire transmitters without an external supply?
A: You must provide an external 24V supply for 2-wire sensors. The module does not supply loop power. - Q: What is the benefit of the 4-wire resistance measurement?
A: It eliminates lead resistance error – critical for low-resistance sensors (e.g., RTDs). Use 4-wire for best accuracy.
