Introduction
HD EtherCAT Terminals, 16 digital input channels, 24 VDC
The EL1809 and EL1819 digital input terminals acquire the binary control signals from the process level and transmit them, in an electrically isolated form, to the higher-level automation device. The EtherCAT Terminals contain 16 channels whose signal state is indicated by LEDs. They are particularly suitable for space-saving use in control cabinets. By using the single-conductor connection technique a multi-channel sensor can be connected in the smallest space with a minimum amount of wiring. The power contacts are connected through.
In the EtherCAT Terminals EL1809 and EL1819, the reference ground for all inputs is the 0 V power contact. The variants have input filters with different speeds (EL1809: 3 ms; EL1819: 10 µs). The conductors can be connected without tools in the case of single-wire conductors using a direct plug-in technique.
The HD EtherCAT Terminals (High Density) with increased packing density are equipped with 16 connection points in the housing of a 12-mm terminal block.
