Product Description
Compactness has always been a guiding principle behind the design of all components coming from Beckhoff. Take the EL9184-0000 EtherCAT terminal as an example, which is a compact unit designed to minimize space waste without neglecting functional qualities essential for the device to be used in the industry.
With a -25ºC to +60ºC operating temperature range, the EL9184-0000 covers a wide variety of typical operational environments without any issues, while operating -40ºC to +85ºC during storage. As a terminal intended for use in areas with a potential risk of explosion, the device carries certification of reliable features as well as compliance with the requirements of accordance and international standards (CE, UL, ATEX, IECEx). Since the primary appeal of the Accelerated Advance build-out is to provide optimum efficiencies; time spent for the installation of the EL9184-0000 terminal illustrates 80% savings when compared to alternative products, allowing swift and hassle-free development cycles for future expansions.
More simply, the EL9184-0000 creates possibilities for quick package assembly; such approach is complemented by a modular device’s design in the form of eight connections for power contacts, creating additional opportunities for system expansion. The EL9184-0000 also allows for the creation of a larger telecommunication network, and this step forward enhances the capacities of Beckhoff’s TwinCAT automation platform. The platform is Equipped to effectively work with TwinCAT 2 and TwinCAT 3 and includes programming environments such as Visual Studio®, IEC 61131-3, MATLAB®/Simulink®. The platform enables the use of advanced technologies including multi-core architecture, real-time C/C++ programming, and configurable run-time environments to realize complex automation projects. The EL9184-0000 is well built, rated to high certs and can be integrated, making it a suitable option for power distribution within contemporary industrial automation systems where efficiency and reliability are desired qualities.
