Product description

The Siemens 6ES7 197-1LA01-0XA0 is the complete Y-Link package for high-availability SIMATIC-S7-400H systems. The bus coupler provides the network transition from a redundant PROFIBUS-DP master system to a single-channel subordinate DP master system. This allows field devices and distributed I/O with only one PROFIBUS-DP interface to be connected as switched I/O to a redundant control architecture. The package consists of two IM 157 modules, one Y-coupler, and the BM IM 157 and BM Y-coupler bus modules. On the redundant side, the Y-Link operates as a DP slave; on the subordinate side, it operates as a DP master. If the active channel fails, the system switches without interruption to the previously passive IM 157. The redundant bus side supports all documented transmission rates from 9.6 kBaud to 12 MBaud; the subordinate PROFIBUS DP operates at 187.5 kBaud, 500 kBaud or 1.5 MBaud. A maximum of 31 DP slaves and 223 occupied slots are supported per subordinate master system. Input and output data can each comprise up to 244 Byte. Diagnostic alarms and LEDs indicate group faults, bus faults on both levels, the active channel and the 24-V supply. The IM 157 is supplied with DC 24 V, draws a maximum of 250 mA and has a typical power loss of 4 W; the Y-coupler is supplied through the bus module. For safe replacement, check the complete order number, component versions, STEP-7 version and configuration, number of nodes, telegram lengths, transmission rates and bus terminations together. Mounting, wiring and commissioning must be performed by qualified personnel. This allows an existing Y-Link station to be retained without fundamentally rebuilding the proven redundant PROFIBUS structure.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Contact us
What is the purpose of the Siemens Y-Link 6ES7 197-1LA01-0XA0?

It connects the redundant PROFIBUS-DP master system of an S7-400H to a single-channel subordinate DP master system. This allows DP slaves with only one PROFIBUS-DP interface to be integrated into the redundant system.

Which components are included in the complete Y-Link package?

Siemens documents two IM 157 modules, one Y-coupler, BM IM 157 bus modules and one BM Y-coupler bus module. Before replacement, check the versions of all components and the existing STEP-7 configuration.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, we provide a 14-day functional guarantee for used items. This means the component must be operational when received.

Please note that the guarantee only applies when the warranty seal is undamaged.

If a defect occurs within 14 calendar days, please contact us in writing. Subject to availability, we will provide a replacement or refund the full purchase price after return.

Further details are provided in the terms and conditions supplied with your quotation.

How quickly do you dispatch and which shipping options are available?

We generally dispatch immediately - in many cases on the same working day. For particularly urgent requirements or machine downtime, we find a suitable solution as quickly as possible and provide a specific delivery window on request.

Express shipping or collection from our premises is also possible, depending on the situation. State your requirements during the ordering process or contact us directly.

We ship worldwide and work with reliable shipping partners, from parcel services to freight forwarding. Freight shipments normally require some preparation so the goods arrive safely and undamaged.

Which payment methods are available?

Payment is normally made by bank transfer against invoice. Payment is due within 10 calendar days of receiving the goods.

As a rule, we offer purchase on account for all customers. In individual cases, such as new customers or particularly high-value components, we may agree advance payment. This decision is made individually and communicated transparently.

Can we return items if they were ordered incorrectly?

Because we sell exclusively to business customers (B2B), there is no general right of return and no consumer right of withdrawal.

Please note that returns of functioning goods are generally excluded. In justified exceptional cases, we can assess an individual solution, but this is not the standard procedure.

Is there a discount when ordering several items?

For larger order quantities or several items of one type, we can offer individual discounts.

Simply send us a quick enquiry - we check availability and will gladly prepare a tailored quotation with quantity pricing.

Do you also purchase industrial spare parts?

Yes, we also purchase automation components, such as frequency inverters, PLC assemblies, panels, servo motors and CPUs. Components from Siemens, Lenze, Schneider Electric, Control Techniques or Heidenhain are especially sought after, and other brands are also possible.

The process is straightforward: email us an inventory list or overview photos at info@reha-industriekomponenten.de. We calculate a market-based purchase price and send you an offer.
