Product Description:
The ECPWP4-4 from B&R Automation is an enhanced unit for measuring distance four distance processors. It is connected via a 9-pin D-type female connector and this provides a strong mechanical interface.
The module has galvanic isolation between the user workstation and the PLC, as well as between different user workstations, which increases the security of the system and the quality of the signal. This module offers two selectable resolutions for diverse application requirements: The first setting offers a good level of detail with a 0. 01 mm to a measuring length of 1. 2 meters, ideal for use in applications that demand high levels of accuracy. The second resolution setting enables measurements starting from 0. 1mm to 12. 8 meters, which gives the advantage of having a longer range while maintaining balance with precision. The reproducibility of the measurements is better than 0. 01 mm, which highlights the effectiveness of the module in providing accurate and precise results. As for the power supply, the ECPWP4-4 provides an output voltage of ~15 VDC with a voltage regulation of ~5%, thus making it reliable. The output current capacity is detailed for each UWS connection: It has a maximum output voltage of +15 V at 70 mA and -15 V at 50 mA, which is enough to power the connected appliances.
The pinout consists of power pins (+15 V at 70 mA), ground, and control signals (Init and Stop) to allow for easy interfacing with automation systems. The ECPWP4-4 is a reliable and accurate industrial solution for distance measurement, and it can be used in many applications that require precise positioning and dimensions. This module demonstrates how B&R Automation provides high-performance automation solutions particular to various industries' requirements. The product is available at Wake Industrial with a one-year warranty period.
