Product Description

Beckhoff EtherCAT terminal EL4112-0000 is a very efficient EtherCAT Terminal with two outputs which is part of the EL EtherCAT Terminal range. While principally serving very demanding industrial application, this terminal is powered up through power contacts by a 24 V DC source to provide for efficient energy control and optimal performance in automated systems. Featuring a 16 bits zero to full scale resolution, the EL4112-0000 is ideal for processes requiring accurate output control for analog and digital output applications. The distributed clocks are built into the EL4112-0000, thus assuring a high degree of synchronization over the maximum space, with a degree of synchronization accuracy of less than one microsecond. This makes it a great solution for use in programs that need accurate control of temporal synchrony like motion control programs, conveyor belts, production lines, or any system where real-time alliances and synchronization is crucial.

The terminal controls the output error of less than 0.1% of the ending value, so that it can provide great precision of signal output. Such accuracy is especially important for higher-order applications which include feedback control systems where even small error has a significant impact. The EL4112-0000 features a signal current of between 0 and 20 mA thus the device can be adequately utilized in any industry to meet various output needs.

Many devices have already been integrated into EtherCAT networks, and the EL4112-0000, having a mass of only 60 grams, can be inserted into most EtherCAT networks without requiring extra room. Additionally, it meets strict safety and quality requirements having earned the CE, UL, and ATEX endorsements, thus fits the hazardous and non-hazardous industrial areas. The specific output control, strong synchronization property, and security qualification make the EL4112-0000 an ideal candidate in manufacturing, process, and motion control industry.
