Product Description
Beckhoff manufactures the EL9100, a small EtherCAT terminal intended for a range of industrial automation uses. Its compact 12 mm housing width makes effective use of space on DIN rails and in control cabinets. This terminal is compatible with a variety of power supply and other devices since it runs on a nominal voltage of 24 V DC, which is a widespread standard in industrial control systems. The internal circuitry of the terminal operates safely and dependably thanks to the 24 V DC supply, which also provides enough power for the sensors and actuators that are attached. The EL9100's capacity to manage a current load of up to 10 A is a crucial characteristic. The terminal may be utilized in applications requiring a lot of power, including powering many sensors or bigger actuators, because to its comparatively high current capacity. Even with large current loads, the terminal's sturdy construction guarantees dependable and effective performance.
A green power LED indicator included inside the EL9100 provides a visual representation of the terminal's operating state. Verifying that the terminal is switched on and operating properly may be done quickly and easily using this LED. Additionally, the EL9100 offers flexibility and simplicity of installation by supporting pluggable wiring for all six terminals. By making wiring and maintenance chores easier, this pluggable wiring system lowers downtime and boosts system performance. Additionally, the terminal has a PE (protected earth) contact, which offers a secure route for fault currents to reach the ground while safeguarding staff and equipment. The EL9100 is designed to function dependably in a range of industrial settings. It can tolerate extreme circumstances that are often seen in industrial settings because of its working temperature range of -25°C to +60°C and storage temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
Several safety and performance requirements are met by the terminal, as shown by its approvals and marks, such as CE, UL, ATEX, and IECEx. These certifications guarantee that the EL9100 satisfies strict specifications for electromagnetic compatibility, explosion protection, and electrical safety, allowing it to be used in dangerous environments. Wake Industrial provides customers with peace of mind and protection against probable problems by offering a one-year warranty on the EL9100.
