PRODUCT OVERVIEW

What this model is—and what must be checked.

The Siemens 6AV3688-3ED13-0AX0 is a SIMATIC HMI PP17-II push button panel with 32 parameterizable short-stroke keys and 32 surface LEDs. It provides 16 digital inputs and 16 digital outputs for hard-key machine operation and status feedback.

This is a legacy spare-part requirement. Confirm the complete order number, interface arrangement, cabinet cutout and PLC mapping before replacing an installed unit.

COMMON APPLICATIONS

Installed-system context

  • Machine start/stop and mode selection
  • Pump, valve and sequence control
  • Fixed-function operator stations
  • Legacy MPI / PROFIBUS DP cabinets

Tell us the controller, communication network and installed panel details. That context helps prevent a visually similar but incompatible replacement.

BUYER QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

Is this a graphical HMI touch panel?

No. The PP17-II is a hard-key push button panel with configurable keys, LEDs and digital I/O; it is not a graphical touchscreen.

Does this model support PROFINET?

No. Official technical data lists PROFIBUS and MPI for this article number and no Industrial Ethernet or PROFINET interface.

Can it replace another PP17 model directly?

Do not assume drop-in compatibility. Confirm the full order number, panel cutout, connector layout, bus configuration and PLC I/O mapping.

What information is needed for a quotation?

Send the complete model, quantity, required condition, destination country and clear front/rear nameplate photos.
