Product Description

The EJ7342-0000 module is designed to control DC brush motors in demanding industrial applications. It is part of the Beckhoff EtherCAT modules that are characterized by high performance and long-term reliability. This model features two channels that allow it to independently control two DC motors simultaneously. This provides a versatile solution for applications that require coordinated motion. It employs a direct method for motor connection, enabling straightforward integration with DC motors for efficient control. The plug-in module includes 1 end position input and 1 encoder input per channel, facilitating comprehensive control and monitoring of each connected DC motor.

This module allows for versatile integration into various automation systems. It features an 8 to 48 VDC voltage requirement, accommodating a broad range of industrial systems. The voltage flexibility provides versatility in applications, supporting low-voltage and high-voltage setups. This unit draws its power supply from the distribution board so there is no requirement for complex wiring during installation. This provides a seamless integration experience, allowing users to customize their setups based on their specific needs. The module boasts an output capacity of 3.5 A per channel. This enables efficient control of the connected DC brush motors.

The EJ7342-0000 EtherCAT plug-in module offers a resolution of 10 bits for current and 16 bits for speed, ensuring precise control over motor performance. Its typical current consumption is rated 160 mA, keeping the energy requirements of the system relatively low. For safe operation in various industrial environments, the unit provides robust electrical isolation of 500 V between the E-bus and field potential. This keeps the components and the module safe from voltage faults that could potentially damage the module or impair function.
