Product Description

Beckhoff EtherCAT terminal EL5001-0000 is one of the performances parts for industrial automation systems and it from the EL EtherCAT Terminal Series. This terminal has only one channel and is powered with a 24 V DC encoder voltage; it is suitable for different applications requiring accurate signal and communication. RS422 signal outputs allow you to establish reliable and stable connection over significant distances which is very important for the industrial applications. The terminal’s ability to support distributed clocks improves synchronization on the connected devices facilitating data processing and control in real time – an important factor in automation systems.

Apart from possessing impressive electrical specifications, the EL5001-0000 can be further programmed with programmable baud rate to cater for the different communication protocols as well as for users to meet specific application requirements. This feature when added to the capability to attain data transfer rates of up to 1MHZ improves system performance and efficiency. The current consumption in E-bus at the current stage is about 120 mA, which shows that terminal development is energy-saving to achieve high performance. The unit is small and the EL5001-0000 only tips the scale at approximately 55 grams, so it can be easily installed in number of configurations without occupying too much space.

Furthermore, it has been tested and received CE, UL, ATEX, IECEx mark, which means that it complies with modern requirements for safety and quality. This reliability is valuable to system integrators and engineers who choose components for their automation systems with precision. To sum up, the Beckhoff EL5001-0000 EtherCAT terminal is a multifunctional terminal, which provides high accuracy, advanced communication properties, and conformity to the worldwide requirements of the present industrial automation.
