Product Description:
The EL2014 is a digital output terminal manufactured by Beckhoff within the EL EtherCAT Terminals series. Designed for machine control cabinets, this module provides four switching channels that allow a PLC to actuate 24 V DC devices such as relays, valves, and indicator lamps. Inserting the terminal into an EtherCAT segment provides compact, slice-based output capability for deterministic industrial automation tasks.
The terminal provides 4 digital output channels, each rated for a load voltage of 24 V DC. A peak load of 0.5 A per channel allows the terminal to drive resistive, inductive, or lamp loads directly without auxiliary relays. The output stage uses a push-type high-side switch referenced to the 0 V power contact, so it switches the positive supply line while the return remains common. The terminal logic receives operating power automatically through the power contacts, eliminating the need for a separate supply connection. Within the controller’s cyclic process image, the module occupies four bits of output data and reserves 20 bits for diagnostic flags. The terminal mounts on a 35 mm DIN rail, supporting installation with other modular control components. Its housing has an IP20 protection rating, making the unit suitable for installation inside closed electrical enclosures where it is protected from direct contact and conductive debris.
Runtime feedback includes diagnostic indications for overtemperature, power failure, and short circuits, giving the controller immediate information about operating faults. Signal wiring uses a 1-wire connection method, which reduces the number of terminal points by sharing a common reference conductor. The design includes reverse-voltage protection to help prevent damage if the supply leads are connected with reversed polarity. Because the terminal does not implement distributed clocks, its output timing is derived entirely from the EtherCAT master and the cyclic communication sequence. The terminal does not support CoE storage, so configuration data are not retained locally through that service after a power cycle.
