EPP EtherCAT P Box Series

The Beckhoff EPP EtherCAT P Box Series provides a versatile and robust product line for industrial automation needs. As IP67-rated modules, they leverage EtherCAT P technology which combines communication and power over a single Ethernet cable. This enables a highly efficient and cost-effective decentralized I/O architecture. The series supports a broad range of I/O types including digital and analog inputs/outputs, position measurement, and communication interfaces. This wide selection allows for tailored sensor and actuator integration. Digital modules offer fast 10μs response while analog modules provide 16-bit precision. A key advantage is the modular and decentralized design facilitated by EtherCAT P's free topology. I/O stations can be placed near field devices, reducing complexity and installation costs. Integrated up to 3A power supplies eliminate additional power sources. Specialized system modules within the series also include junctions and power distribution. These enable flexible scalable EtherCAT P networks to easily expand and reconfigure systems as needs evolve.
