Product Description
The Beckhoff ER3174-0002 is a stationary model from a well-organized series of electrical enclosures, which is used for processing various types of analog signals. Here, four S15 input channels are available such that voltage signals or current signaling up to about 320 modules are quite supported and there’s resolution of up to 16 bit which is reliable and useful for taking measurements.
Located inside an appropriate housing of zinc die soldering the ER3174-0002 is quite perfect for industrial application. Owing IP65, IP66 and IP67, the device is well protected from dirt, moisture and extreme influences. Such protection of the module guarantees that it may be used on the machines without requiring any additional covers, during dirty and wet conditions. It works within the range of -25C and +60C, this further makes it clear that working under difficult conditions is not a problem. The module communicates via the EtherCAT bus. Bus interface and power supply connectors M8 and signal input connectors M12 are used. The differential wiring of power and signal inputs improves further the precision of the measurement as well as reduces risks of noise. The device occupies a compact width of 30 mm which enables it to be installed in narrow spaces. Also, pre-made cables are intended to minimize the number of connections as well as the risk of wiring errors and accelerate the commissioning phase.
The ER3174-0002 has passed vibration sweeps and shock tests, which means it can be used in high-vibration environments and is reliable. Hence, it is suited for applications requiring accurate monitoring of analog inputs and robustness, for example, in industrial automation and process control.
