Product Description
The Beckhoff makes the EK1122 EtherCAT junction is meant to make EtherCAT networks more flexible and faster. The Beckhoff is known for its high-tech automation solutions, and the EK1122 allows multiple EtherCAT junctions in an industrial automation system to work together without any problems. The EtherCAT junctions are compact and lightweight weight approximately 65 g to make them suitable for various installations.
The EK1122 operates using the EtherCAT protocol with data transfer rates of 100 Mbit/s. The EtherCAT junctions feature two RJ45 interfaces that support a station distance of up to 100 m to allow flexible network configurations. The EtherCAT junctions are powered through the E-bus and have a typical current consumption of 220 mA. With a delay of approximately 1 us, the EK1122 ensures fast data transmission within the network. The junction doesn't need any extra setup that makes the installation process easier. Between -25 degrees C and +60 degrees C is the range of temperatures that the junction works well in. The EtherCAT junction can also be kept between -40 degrees C and +85 degrees C. It has an IP20 grade for protection and can work in places with up to 95% relative humidity that don't condense.
There is a lot of power and dependability in the Beckhoff EK1122 EtherCAT junction. The EtherCAT task within the EtherCAT system is the coupling of junctions to enhance network capability. The junction supports a bus interface with two RJ45 ports to ensure smooth data flow across the system. The compact design and low power consumption contribute to its efficiency in various automation applications. Wake Industrial also provides a one-year replacement warranty and offers global shipment for the EK1122.
