EK1101-0010 | EtherCAT Coupler with ID switch, Extended Distance
The EK1101-0010 EtherCAT Coupler is the link between the EtherCAT protocol at fieldbus level and the EtherCAT Terminals. The coupler converts the passing telegrams from Ethernet 100BASE-TX to E-bus signal representation. A station consists of a coupler and any number of EtherCAT Terminals that are automatically detected and individually displayed in the process image.

The EL2596 LED strobe control terminal contains a flexible power supply unit that supplies the LED with the required current and voltage. Applications from continuous light to short light pulses in the kHz range are thus possible. Each individual flash can be triggered in a controlled manner by the control system via the distributed clocks/timestamp function. The EL2596 has a trigger output for triggering cameras and high-quality, fast current and voltage control, so that line scan cameras, for example, also benefit from constant illumination. Extensive real-time diagnostics, e.g. for input current/voltage and output current/voltage allow detailed monitoring of the LED light intensity. Thus, overdrive applications with short high-current pulses through the LED are possible. If a specifiable load corridor is exited, e.g., due to load errors, the EL2596 switches off to protect the LED (resettable).

EL3602 | EtherCAT Terminal, 2-channel analog input, voltage, ±10 V, ±5 V, ±2.5 V, ±1.25 V, 24 bit, high-precision
The EL3602 analog input terminal handles signals in the ranges ±10 V, ±5 V, ±2.5 V and ±1.25 V. The voltage is digitized to a resolution of 24 bits, and is transmitted, electrically isolated, to the higher-level automation device. The input channels of the EtherCAT Terminal have differential inputs and possess a common, internal ground potential. The signal state of the EtherCAT Terminal is indicated by light emitting diodes.

Accelerometers with IEPE interface can be directly connected to the EL3632 EtherCAT Terminal. The measuring signals are analyzed on the PC via the TwinCAT library. This enables all benefits of the PC platform, such as performance and flexibility, to be fully utilized. Alternatively, custom software can be used for the analysis. The terminal can be adapted to individual requirements through configurable filters and supply currents.

EL3692 | EtherCAT Terminal, 2-channel analog input, resistance, 100 mΩ…10 MΩ, 24 bit
The analog EL3692 input terminal enables direct resistance measurement in nine measuringe ranges from 0…100 mΩ to 0…10 MΩ. The circuitry of the EtherCAT Terminal enables measurement in 2- and 4-wire versions. The EL3692 offers measuring range selection, either automatic or through the controller. Due to the galvanic isolation of 1500 V between the field side and the E-bus, in single-channel mode measurements can be carried out at live points (within the permissible range). The EtherCAT Terminal indicates its state through LEDs. Malfunctions such as broken wires are indicated by error LEDs.

EL4712 | EtherCAT Terminal, 2-channel analog output, current, 0…20 mA, 16 bit, oversampling
The EL4712 analog output terminal generates output signals in the range between 0 and 20 mA. The voltage is supplied to the process level with a resolution of 16 bits and is electrically isolated. The output channels have a common ground potential. The outputs are sampled with an adjustable, integer multiple (oversampling factor: n) of the bus cycle frequency (n microcycles per bus cycle). For each bus cycle, the EtherCAT Terminal receives a process data block that is output consecutively. The time base of the terminal can be synchronized precisely with other EtherCAT devices via distributed clocks. This procedure enables the temporal resolution of the analog output signals to be increased to n times the bus cycle time. In conjunction with the EL37xx (analog input terminal with oversampling), responses with equidistant time intervals, e.g. in the event of a threshold value being exceeded, become possible. The EL4712 device can output a maximum of 100,000 values (100 ksamples/s) per channel and second.
