Product Description:
The EK1100-0050 EtherCAT coupler serves as an essential component for connecting EtherCAT terminals to 100BASE-TX EtherCAT networks, allowing for efficient and reliable data transfer throughout industrial automation systems. The module is designed to facilitate high speed communication, with support for data transfer rates up to 100 Mbit/s. The design ensures minimal delays in signal propagation, featuring an approximate delay of 1 µs which will help maintain precise timing within the network. This coupler supports a substantial network size, capable of handling up to 65,534 EtherCAT terminals.
For network connectivity, the EtherCAT coupler utilizes Ethernet/EtherCAT cables (min. Cat.5), shielded, which are essential for maintaining signal integrity and reducing interference from other equipment's. The network setup allows for maximum distances of 100 meters (100BASE-TX) between stations, giving flexibility when you are designing the network topologies throughout complex industrial facilities. A robust bus interface is provided through 2 x M8, shielded connections. The system requires a 24 V DC (-15%/+20%) power supply and exhibits a current consumption of 70 mA + (∑ E-bus current/4), while supporting a current supply to the E-bus of 2000 mA.
Designed for use in demanding conditions, the EK1100-0050 operates effectively across an operating temperature range of -25…+60°C, making it suitable for diverse industrial settings that can have variations in temperature. For storage, the device can withstand temperatures ranging from -40…+85°C, ensuring its integrity is maintained during storage periods. In terms of compliance, the coupler holds approvals/markings for CE, CCC, UL, ATEX, IECEx, in order to meet the international regulatory standards and compliance requirements. These certifications ensure safe operations with quality control across various applications, enhancing trust in the reliability and safety of this device, and the compliance through safety standards is important for dependable network operations.
