EJ EtherCAT Plugin Series

The Beckhoff EJ EtherCAT Plugin Series provides a versatile and innovative product line for industrial automation applications. The series is designed with a modular and scalable approach to deliver flexible I/O solutions. It includes a diverse selection of digital and analog input and output modules as well as specialized modules for safety-critical functions. A key strength of the EJ series lies in its modular design which allows users to precisely configure systems according to their specific application needs. Modules within the series such as the EJ1957 and EJ6910 integrate TwinSAFE functionality, enabling comprehensive safety solutions within the EtherCAT network. Select modules also support advanced capabilities like TwinSAFE Logic and TwinSAFE SC technologies. TwinSAFE Logic allows direct implementation of safety logic directly on the module, simplifying overall system architecture. TwinSAFE SC enables safe transmission of analog signals, further enhancing flexibility and safety. The modular design extends to physical installation with plug-in modules easily snapping into a signal distribution board. This simplifies wiring and installation, reducing complexity and minimizing risks of errors. The series also offers mechanical coding options to ensure correct module placement, enhancing ease of use and reliability. Built on EtherCAT technology, the EJ series ensures high-speed and deterministic communication between field devices and central control systems.
