Example configuration for temperature measurement
The example configuration for the temperature measurement consists of an EK1100 EtherCAT coupler with connected terminals that match the typical distribution of digital and analog signal types at a machine. On the EL6900 a safety project is active, which reads safe inputs and enables all 4 safe outputs during the measurement.
External heat sources / radiant heat / impaired convection The maximum permissible ambient temperature of 55°C was checked with the above example configuration. Impaired convection, an unfavorable location near heat sources or an unfavorable configuration of the EtherCAT Terminals may result in overheating of the terminals. |
