Product Description:

Among the global suppliers of industrial electronics, B & R Automation produces an innovative module ECA162-0 and is categorized under the ECZ Multi Analog Modules series offering reliable analog performance. It features a capacitor configuration which buffers energy effectively. A capacitance of 1600 µF stores ample charge for stable voltage delivery. Alos, its 250 VDC rating supports high‑voltage applications with confidence. A 16‑bit resolution enhances control precision. The mass for this analogue unit is 0.3 kg simplifies integration into compact control cabinets.

A tolerance of ±20 % permits operation within parameter variances which maintains consistent functionality. An operational span from -40°C to +85°C supports use in extreme climates or any critical conditions. An equivalent series resistance of 24 mΩ at 120 Hz minimizes internal heating. A ripple current rating of 4.5 A at 120 Hz and 85°C sustains continuous charge cycles. The component with spaced leads at 10 mm aligns with standard PCB layouts for straightforward assembly. A case size of 30mm × 40 mm and radial mounting pins secure the unit firmly onto panels for vibration‑resistant operation.

An insulation resistance rated at 100 MΩ maintains electrical isolation under high‑voltage stress. A leakage current of 3 mA after 5 minutes at rated voltage confirms minimal self‑discharge. An endurance of 2000 hours at 85°C validates long‑term reliability. Compliance with RoHS standards ensure restricted hazardous substance usage. The module measures 6.0 in × 1.0 in × 9.0 in which aligns with standard rack dimensions. It holds an IP20 ingress class guarding against solid object intrusion. Additionally, the channel updates occur every 1 ms for swift signal delivery and ECA162-0 controller comes with analog outputs run at 16‑bit accuracy for precise signal fidelity.
