Siemens 6EP1931-2DC21 SITOP DC UPS module
Siemens 6EP1931-2DC21 is a SITOP DC UPS module that buffers a 24 V DC control load at up to 6 A with a compatible battery module.
System function
Rebuilt from individual evidence
Evidence and limits
6EP1931-2DC21 is documented by Siemens as a 24 V/6 A SITOP DC UPS module without an interface.
It occupies the battery-backed point between the 24 V DC source and downstream control loads, with buffer behavior dependent on battery and load current.
The captured sources document the 24 V DC/6.85 A input and 24 V DC/6 A output.
Unknown: the connected battery capacity, downstream load, runtime, wiring, service status, and installation compatibility.

System role
This section explains what the product does and where it acts in the surrounding system.
- Function
- Buffers a 24 V DC control bus at up to 6 A during a supply interruption when paired with a documented battery module.
- System position
- Sits between the 24 V DC supply and its battery branch and the downstream control loads.
- Upstream / inputs
- A 24 V DC supply and a compatible SITOP battery module feed the DC UPS.
- Downstream / outputs
- The module supplies the downstream 24 V control load in normal and buffer operation.
- Limitations
- Unknown: the connected battery capacity, downstream load, runtime, wiring, service status, and installation compatibility.
