The New EPLAN Data Portal: a Win-Win for Manufacturers and Users
Use EPLAN Data Portal as a valuable sales multiplier by making your device and component data easily accessible for users – and thus potential customers. What’s more, you enable users to integrate them directly into their engineering projects and to create bills of materials for procurement.
The EPLAN Data Standard supplements proven classification standards for device data by making them fit for everyday use. In other words, it brings manufacturers’ component data up to a uniform top level in Data Portal. You too can adapt your data sets to the new standard to maximise their quality and thereby maximise the benefits for thousands of users. And please note, these standardised data sets are specially highlighted in the new Data Portal – so that users can recognise high-quality data at a glance.
The new Data Portal lets its users quickly and easily find the component data they need. The smart search function also provides users with useful suggestions based on their search behaviour, meaning they will quickly become aware of your products.
As part of the pool of manufacturers in Data Portal, you’re effectively positioning yourself with EPLAN users. Furthermore, we’re also pleased to offer you the possibility of using our popular media channels as a multiplier for your company. Just contact us, we’re happy to support you!

At a glance – easily recognize which data is available for the selected part.
Benefit from the EPLAN Data Standard
After working in close cooperation with leading device manufacturers and machine builders and plant system engineering companies, the EPLAN Data Standard was developed. This systematic framework for device attributes makes the product data you provide in EPLAN Data Portal fit for users’ everyday work. You, too, can offer your data in line with this new EPLAN Data Standard in the EPLAN Data Portal! It makes it easier for users to integrate data into their design and production processes. Your advantage here is that standardised product data is marked with a logo and has its own filter function. Meaning your product are used more frequently.
Report Center: Modern Analysis Tool for Your Device Data
How popular is your device data? Who uses your products and which are particularly interesting for EPLAN users? The analysis data in the Report Center reveals this and so much more for you. We offer you detailed statistics about user behaviour in the EPLAN Data Portal, as well as information about the frequency of downloads of the data you’ve provided. The most current version, available exclusively for you in the EPLAN Cloud, offers you optimal performance and a modern design.
Import Tool: Easy Publication of Standardised Data
The Import Tool for the EPLAN Data Portal makes it easier for manufacturers to publish device data in line with the Data Standard. For instance, you can use it to import the complete ECLASS Advanced archives (in Version 9.0 and above) and generate high-quality EPLAN data sets that comply with the Data Standard. If manual adjustments prove necessary, the Import Tool guides you through to the standardised data set step by step, up to “ready to publish.” The EDZ import format is also supported. Furthermore, the Import Tool is successively being expanded to include new format types.
