Product Description

The Beckhoff EP3314-0002 digital input module delivers precise and versatile temperature measurement for industrial applications. As part of the established EP Series, it couples high accuracy with rugged reliability under demanding conditions. The module accommodates a variety of common thermocouple types through its four M12 connection ports. Utilizing a voltage measurement range from ±30 mV up to ±75 mV, the EP3314-0002 is factory-calibrated for type K sensors between -100°C and 1370°C. However, users can freely configure representation in 0.1 or 0.01°C steps depending on their needs.

Constructed to withstand harsh environments, the module carries IP65 to IP67 ratings for dust and water ingress protection. Its robust polyamide housing withstands wide operating temperatures from -25°C to 60°C. Open circuit recognition safeguards against faulty inputs, while 24 V DC nominal power with overvoltage tolerance ensures dependable performance.

At the core, EtherCAT communication enables high-speed data sampling from 2.5 seconds down to an impressive 20 milliseconds. The module’s distributed clock functionality and leakage current monitoring increase measurement accuracy. Front-access connectors simplify installation and maintenance tasks. Overall, the EP3314-0002 delivers a comprehensive temperature measurement solution for industrial processes and quality control. Applications benefit from its flexible thermocouple compatibility, high-resolution readings, and intrinsically safe design able to endure real-world factory conditions without fault.
