Product Description

The Beckhoff EL9550-0012 surge filter terminal is one of the ranges of EL EtherCAT Terminals with an explicit purpose to protect both field as well as system power supply against surges and other electrical noise. This terminal functions with a nominal voltage of 24 V (-15% to +20% tolerance) and supports rated currents of 10 Amp on both field and system supplies, thus it helps to safeguard sensitive instruments in industrial settings.

To be specific, the weight of the terminal is about 50 grams with a dimension of 12 mm x 100 mm x 68 mm, given that the EL9550-0012 is lightweight and small in size. The device has robust IP20 protection which makes it safe for use in controlled settings with no chances of dust and moisture getting into the device. The terminal has also passed the shock, EN 60068-2-6, and vibration, EN 60068-2-27, standards thus enhancing its endurance in such challenging environments.

Thanks to the surge filtering features of the EL9550-0012, both the field and system power supplies will be immune to excessive voltage instabilities, assisting in further protecting and ensuring the durability of the devices coming in contact. In addition, it meets the requirements for EMC immunity and emissions as per the standards EN 61000-6-2/EN 61000-6-4. Hence, it can function satisfactorily in electrically disturbed surroundings. In addition, the EL9550-0012 has CE, UL and ATEX certifications, proving it is qualified for deployment in hazardous areas and meets the international requirements for safety. The device is able to operate in the range of temperatures between 0oC to +55oC and can be stored at -25 degrees Celsius.
