Product Description

For industrial automation systems, Beckhoff's EL9540 EtherCAT Terminal is essential. For connected devices, this terminal offers a dependable power source with built-in surge protection. Its nominal voltage of 24 V with a permitted fluctuation of -15% to +20% is one of its primary characteristics. This broad voltage range accommodates any variations in the power source and guarantees compatibility with a variety of industrial equipment. Protecting delicate electronic components against voltage spikes, which might be brought on by electromagnetic interference or abrupt changes in load, is a critical function of the surge filter. The surge filter is crucial for maintaining the system's long-term dependability since these voltage spikes have the potential to interfere with operations or possibly harm equipment. The rated current field supply of the EL9540 is < 10 A. The maximum current that the terminal may safely provide to connected devices is specified in this standard.

If this limit is exceeded, the terminal or any attached equipment may overheat and suffer damage. Because of its small size and weight of around 50 grams, the terminal may be easily integrated into a variety of industrial installations. Its compact size reduces the amount of space needed and makes installation easier. The EL9540 may be kept at temperatures as low as -40°C and as high as +85°C. It is designed to function in a broad temperature range, from -25°C to +60°C. It may be used in challenging industrial settings with large temperature swings because of its broad working temperature range. The EL9540 meets the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) immunity requirements of EN 61000-6-2 and EN 61000-6-4. The terminal's adaptability for demanding industrial applications is further enhanced by its compliance with EN 60068-2-6 and EN 60068-2-27 requirements for shock and vibration resistance. It offers flexibility and simplicity of installation with pluggable wiring that works with all ESxxxx terminals.

With an IP20 protection certification, the EL9540 is shielded from solid objects bigger than 12 mm but not from liquids. The terminal's adherence to global safety and performance standards is shown by its CE, UL, ATEX, and IECEx certifications and marks. It is a flexible option for a range of industrial applications since the ATEX and IECEx designations attest to its compatibility for use in potentially explosive environments. The EL9540 is a small and sturdy solution for dependable power and surge protection in industrial automation systems, measuring 12 mm by 100 mm by 68 mm. Wake Industrial gives consumers additional peace of mind and guarantees the product's quality and dependability with a one-year warranty.
