The extensive Beckhoff I/O portfolio includes products for all application areas and environmental conditions. Discover our range of new products in this video, including the EL6689 EtherCAT Terminal. The synchronization terminal for distributed clocks can output precise information such as position, speed, and direction thanks to its direct connection to the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). And then there’s the IP67 EP3751-0260 EtherCAT Box module, which features an accelerometer and gyroscope all in one.

EP3751-0260 | EtherCAT Box, 1-channel, 1 x 3-axis accelerometer, 1 x 3-axis gyroscope
The EP3751-0260 EtherCAT Box module has an internal 6-axis MEMS sensor for measuring movements. The box module combines a 3-axis acceleration sensor and 3-axis gyroscope sensor that record acceleration and rotational movement in a very compact unit.

The EL6689 EtherCAT Terminal is a synchronization terminal for distributed clocks via direct connection to the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). An antenna for this can be connected directly to the terminal via an antenna (SMA) connector. All active GNSS are supported: GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Beidou. Thus, separate systems can be kept synchronized worldwide with a synchronicity of 100 ns, which elicits many advantages, e.g. for distributed space observation systems or distributed measurement systems for monitoring mains supplies.
