More Information

Overview Manuals Position Coding PROFINET Exchange Connector Roles Mechanical Limits

Features:

  • A 16-bit absolute code represents shaft position within one revolution.
  • Two M12 ports carry PROFINET RT or IRT communication.
  • A separate M12 connector supplies the encoder from 10 to 30 V DC.
Configured resolution, direction and preset define the controller position value.

The clamp flange and 10 mm shaft transfer the measured motion.

The encoder profile maps position and speed data into cyclic PROFINET IO.

The Siemens 6FX2001-5QN13 Single-Turn PROFINET Absolute Encoder may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Turning one shaft revolution into an absolute value

  • Sensing: The encoder measures the mechanical angle within the current turn.
  • Resolution: The selected step count defines the usable positions per revolution.
  • Direction: A configured setting controls whether the reported value rises clockwise or counterclockwise.
  • Preset: The active position can be assigned to the documented reference value.

Linking encoder data to the automation controller

  • GSDML: The device description adds the exact encoder structure to the project.
  • Device name: PROFINET uses the assigned station identity during startup.
  • RT and IRT: The selected communication mode determines the timing relationship.
  • Cyclic data: Position, control and status words exchange through the configured profile.

Keeping the two data ports separate from the supply input

  • Port one: The first M12 Ethernet connector receives or continues the PROFINET line.
  • Port two: The second M12 port supports the documented line connection.
  • Power connector: A separate four-pin M12 connection feeds the DC supply.
  • Radial layout: Connector clearance is maintained around the encoder housing.

Preserving accurate shaft transfer and enclosure protection

  • Clamp flange: The FS15 flange locates the encoder on the machine mount.
  • Shaft coupling: The 10 mm shaft follows the measured mechanism without slip.
  • Speed boundary: Mechanical speed remains within the documented limit.
  • Protection split: Housing IP67 and shaft-side IP64 are applied to their respective surfaces.
Description
Siemens 6FX2001-5QN13 is a 16-bit single-turn PROFINET absolute encoder that converts one shaft revolution into a controller-readable position value. Its clamp flange and 10 mm shaft couple the measured mechanism to the encoder, while the PROFINET interface delivers the resulting code to the automation system.

As the shaft turns, 6FX2001-5QN13 forms an absolute position within the current revolution and applies the configured steps-per-revolution setting. Counting direction and preset parameters determine how the mechanical reference is represented, so the controller receives the required engineering orientation without changing the physical shaft motion.

Two radial M12 network connectors on 6FX2001-5QN13 create the PROFINET RT or IRT path, while a separate four-pin M12 connector carries the DC supply. The two Ethernet ports permit line connection through the device, but supply wiring remains electrically and physically distinct from the network pair.

The PNO encoder profile of 6FX2001-5QN13 maps position, preset, direction and speed information into the configured IO exchange. GSDML selection, device naming and controller parameters must all identify this exact encoder execution before cyclic data becomes usable.

Mechanical speed and shaft load on 6FX2001-5QN13 must stay within their documented boundaries because position accuracy depends on the shaft following the measured machine without slip or bearing overload. Housing IP67 and shaft-side IP64 are separate ratings, so the coupling side needs installation protection appropriate to the application.

FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
Why might a controller fail to recognize Siemens 6FX2001-5QN13?
Check the Siemens 6FX2001-5QN13 GSDML entry, PROFINET device name, IP assignment, cable path and DC supply.
How can an unexpected resolution on 6FX2001-5QN13 be corrected?
Compare the 6FX2001-5QN13 configured steps per revolution with the controller module parameters before rescaling the PLC value.
What causes the position of 6FX2001-5QN13 to count in the wrong direction?
The 6FX2001-5QN13 direction parameter or mechanical orientation can reverse the reported progression; verify both before applying a preset.
Which data should be backed up before replacing 6FX2001-5QN13?
Retain the 6FX2001-5QN13 device name, GSDML selection, resolution, direction, preset and controller IO mapping.
Can both M12 Ethernet ports power 6FX2001-5QN13?
No. The two 6FX2001-5QN13 network ports carry PROFINET data; the separate four-pin M12 connector supplies power.
Does IP67 apply to every surface of 6FX2001-5QN13?
No. Siemens rates the 6FX2001-5QN13 housing IP67 and the shaft side IP64, so installation protection must respect both.
