Product Description

The Beckhoff EP2817-0008 digital input module delivers robust and reliable connectivity for industrial automation systems. Featuring 24 inputs and support for the high-speed EtherCAT protocol, it facilitates extensive communication between controllers, field devices, and machine interfaces. Manufactured as part of Beckhoff's EP Digital Input Series, the EP2817-0008 withstands punishing conditions with its IP65, IP66, and IP67 ratings. Even in dusty, wet, or vibrating environments, the module withstands the elements and continues operating as intended. A broad temperature operating range from -25°C to 60°C also expands its usage across facilities.

Weighing only about 165 grams yet built to industrial standards, the compact EP2817-0008 installs easily into tight spaces. D-sub and M8 connection ports with 4-pin a-coding enable swift wiring to distributed devices. Input signals remain clear thanks to common mode interference suppression up to 30 V. Beyond rugged construction, the EP2817-0008 supports 0.5 amp loads per channel at a stable 24 VDC output. This facilitates connectivity for an extensive range of field devices from basic sensors to specialty equipment. Short-circuit protection on each channel also adds an extra layer of reliability.

With the combination of robust industrial durability, flexible connectivity, and high-speed EtherCAT communications, the Beckhoff EP2817-0008 digital input module proves itself ready to enable precision and interact efficiently within the harshest manufacturing environments.
