Product Description
One essential part of industrial automation systems is the Beckhoff EL2024 EtherCAT Terminal. Each of the four digital output channels that this terminal offers may give a nominal voltage of 24 V DC. A typical standard in industrial control systems, this particular voltage level enables interoperability with a wide range of actuators and devices. In industrial settings where voltage stability might sometimes be difficult, the capacity to handle a voltage fluctuation of -15% to +20% guarantees dependable operation even under changing power circumstances. The EL2024 can manage a maximum current of 2 A per output channel. Ohmic, inductive, and even light loads may all be controlled by the terminal thanks to its capabilities. In industrial environments, where solenoids and motors are commonplace, the capacity to drive inductive loads is essential. These gadgets often behave inductively, producing voltage spikes that could harm delicate electronic parts.
In contrast, the EL2024 has short-circuit-proof outputs, a vital safety feature that guards against harm to the terminal and the associated equipment in the event of a short circuit. In the event of a short, this protective mechanism restricts the amount of current that may pass through the output channel, avoiding excessive current and possible damage. Reverse polarity protection is included into the EL2024. If the power source is connected with the wrong polarity, this feature protects the terminal from harm. Human mistake or defective wiring may cause reverse polarity, which can cause permanent harm to electrical components if left unchecked. By including this safeguard, Beckhoff guarantees the EL2024's durability and dependability.
From -25°C to +60°C, the EL2024 EtherCAT Terminal is designed to function in a broad temperature range. Because of its wide working range, it may be used in a variety of industrial settings, including very hot or cold ones. For industrial automation operations to remain stable and effective, the terminal's dependability under these circumstances is essential. Furthermore, the terminal's lightweight form and small size (it weighs only 55 grams) make it simple to integrate into a variety of control systems. Additionally, the EL2024 complies with the EN 60068-2-6 and EN 60068-2-27 requirements for shock and vibration resistance. These specifications guarantee that the terminal can tolerate the mechanical stresses that are often present in industrial settings, including vibrations from adjacent equipment or unintentional collisions. Wake Industrial provides this dependable and sturdy automation component with a one-year warranty.
