EL9181, EL9182, EL9183 - Introduction and Technical Data
Potential distribution terminals in HD housing
The EL9181, EL9182 and EL9183 potential distribution terminals provide 16 terminal points for potential distribution and enables the tapping of the voltages without further terminal blocks or wiring work.
The power contacts are fed through to the next terminal without connecting to the terminal points.
The HD EtherCAT Terminals (High Density) with increased packing density contain 16 connection points in the housing of a 12 mm-wide EtherCAT Terminal. Solid wire conductors can be connected without tools using the direct plug-in technique.
