Load voltage supply
Notice | |
Fuse protection of the load voltage The electrical fuse protection of the load voltage must be selected in such a way that the maximum current flowing is limited to 3 times the nominal current (max. 1 second)! |
| |
Load voltage supply The device requires an additional load voltage of e.g. 48 V DC for operation. |
Control voltage US
The following sub-functions are supplied from control voltage US:
- the fieldbus
- the processor logic
- typically, the inputs and the sensors if the EtherCAT device has inputs
Peripheral voltage UP
For EtherCAT devices with load connection and digital inputs and outputs, the load connection and digital outputs are typically supplied from the peripheral voltage UP. UP must be provided separately. If UP is switched off, the fieldbus function, the function of the inputs, and the supply of the sensors are maintained.
