Product Description:
The EK1960 EtherCAT Coupler is an EtherCAT coupler designed for use in the digital I/O coupling of EtherCAT networks. The coupler includes digital channel support with the up to 0.5 A per channel feature for current handling, which delivers safe current handling for a wide range of devices that are connected. The coupler is constructed for repeated heavy use in standard industrial uses with working ambient temperature ranging from +0 to +55°C.
Its working temperature range makes EK1960 appropriate for mounting on open floor and in closed control enclosures with typical thermal environment. The EK1960 applies spring force terminal termination, which produces heavy-duty wiring with simple assembling and low maintenance. The technology of connection provides high contact reliability within vibration or extended use. It weighs approximately 200 grams and is light in weight and compact and thus ideal for space-constrained applications. Its mechanical design provides space for close-panel mounting configuration and space-friendly ease-of-wiring access and diagnosis. It provides space for efficient signal distribution and signal processing in EtherCAT systems through bridging field-level signals with EtherCAT backplane communication. It maximizes wiring structure via high-speed communication and synchronization throughout the network.
The EK1960 provides accurate signal processing and real-time performance, which is the basis of high-performance control and automation processes. Its support for modular platform enables it to be scaled and expanded easily with other compatible terminals. The EK1960 design offers robustness to operation and supports high I/O density in distributed systems. Wherever applied in machinery, process control, or automation lines, the EK1960 offers efficient communication, constant current support, and reliable performance. It is a proper solution for EtherCAT-based designs that need to be reliable and have limited space integration.
