Product Description

The EP7041-0002 delivers precise control for stepper motors through its 1-channel motion interface and 5A output current capability. As part of Beckhoff's EP Digital Input Series, this compact EtherCAT Box supports stepper motors with its integrated drive technology design. The device operates within a wide nominal voltage range of 24V DC to 48V DC, allowing for flexibility in various automation applications. Further enhancing its versatility is an operational temperature rating of -25°C to +60°C, ensuring dependable performance in diverse industrial conditions.

Additional functionalities include EtherCAT communication and IP65, IP66, and IP67 protection ratings, providing durability suited to production line environments. Dust and water resistance at these IP protection classes shield the device from moisture and particulate ingress, increasing uptime by preventing malfunctions stemming from ambient interferences. Utilizing plastic for its housing construction, the EP7041-0002 maintains a compact 30mm width suitable for tight packaging needs.

Further refinements consist of a high 5A continuous output delivering precise motor control. Extended temperature, shock, and vibration tolerances uphold stable operations even under machine stresses. Feedback from an integrated incremental encoder transmits real-time motor position data for coordinated motion profiles. Connection is through M12 ports for signal and power, with M8 used for the EtherCAT interface. These industrial-grade connectors establish robust links unaffected by mechanical disturbances. Ease of setup stems from plug-and-play compatibility with the EtherCAT protocol, minimizing integration time versus alternative fieldbus solutions. XFC technology advances fast cycle times, synchronizing I/O under tightly coordinated distributed clocks. Collectively, such traits empower seamless motion control and processing within automatons, matching requirements spanning automation, drive technology, and condition monitoring scenarios.
