Product Description
Beckhoff EtherCAT terminal EL4132 provides exceptional mechanical stability for various harsh industrial applications. Being a member of the EL EtherCAT Terminal Series, it offers high performance with the terminals of two channels where each channel has the signal range of ±10 V. This make it possible to be applied in process control, motion control, data acquisition and many others. Among a number of noteworthy features, the EL4132 can boast of a 16-bit resolution that is capable to perform accurate analog to analog signal conversion. This high level of resolution makes a difference in the input signals in the process to be measured and controlled and gives the user reliable data need for control and monitoring.
The EL4132 is designed to work under tough environment conditions and it is recommended to use it at a temperature of - 25°C to +60°C. Achieving a broad operating temperature range and having an IP20 protection rating enables the terminal to operate in a number of settings ranging from industrial applications to outdoors. Moreover, the EL4132 has passed the EN 60068-2-6 test for vibration, so it can be used for mechanical stress and vibrations equipment such as machinery and conveyors. Additional advanced features such as the Analog Output with a signal range of ± 10V make the EL4132 suitable for sensor and actuator interfacing. It can easily be applied to existing EtherCAT lines further improving the general efficiency of the system.
Therefore, the Beckhoff EL4132 EtherCAT terminal is the best fit for engineers who require a precise, high bandwidth signal conditioning unit in the industrial environment of the 21st century. In any automation system, this element has important roles due to this element’s high robustness, precise working, and wide operational range.
