Product Description

Beckhoff EtherCAT terminal EL6021-0000 ensures high-speed communication in industrial automation networks. As part of the EL EtherCAT Terminal Series, this miniature terminal features small dimensions and high performance, ensuring it will be useful in different automation systems. The EL6021-0000 device has a weight of approximately 55 grams, making it even lighter than most other devices, which is particularly important in integrating it to existing systems without having to add extra weight. The terminal has an outer dimension of 12mm x 100mm x 68mm which can be regarded as very compact, especially where space is a luxury. The protection of the range with IP20 is enough to protect from direct contact with dust or solid foreign objects, making it suitable for use indoors.

An advantage of EL6021-0000 is flexibility of data transfer rates, which range from 2400 bps to 115200 bps. This flexibility enables the users to choose the most appropriate speed for the particular applications to enhance the performance of communication to match the particular system. The terminal has 120 Ω line impedance to ensure no distortion in the signal passing through it during data transfer. Combined with differential signal bit transfer technology it increases the reliability of communication and can be successfully used for many demanding and sophisticated industrial processes requiring accurate and fast exchange of data.

All in all, one can state that the Beckhoff EL6021-0000 EtherCAT terminal is quite lightweight, very compact and highly resistant to the communication channels. This terminal can be installed in control cabinets or other automation field, it has good application solutions for data communication in industrial automation field, which is beneficial to improve the control efficiency.
