Product Description:
The EL2612 EL EtherCAT Terminal is a relay-based output terminal. It is used in industrial control applications. The product is engineered by Beckhoff for precise signal switching.
The EL2612 EL EtherCAT terminal has two relay-based change-over outputs. It supports ohmic loads for both AC and DC systems. Each channel handles 0.5 A at 125 V AC. Each also supports 2 A at 30 V DC per channel. The terminal enables safe switching for low and medium voltages. It operates reliably well in circuits using pure resistive loads. It is often referred to as the Beckhoff EL EtherCAT terminal. The minimum load capacity is 10 microamperes at 10 millivolts DC. This ensures efficient and stable signal integrity even under low-power conditions. The signal relay design maintains contact performance over extended usage. The terminal connects using standard relay output technology. It consumes 150 mA from the E-bus power supply. The output mapping in the process image is 2 bits. This allows independent control of both change-over relays. The terminal ensures fast switching response during control operations. Its design supports modular integration into EtherCAT systems. It offers reliable contact closure for external circuit switching.
The EL2612 EL EtherCAT terminal offers mechanical switching of AC and DC loads. It delivers electrical separation using built-in signal relays. It is ideal for applications needing isolated control output switching. The terminal is suited for flexible EtherCAT-based automation systems. The EL EtherCAT terminal reduces wiring complexity in field systems. It supports compact DIN-rail installation in automation cabinets. The relay outputs offer mechanical isolation from the control logic. This prevents voltage interference from field-side components. The terminal provides robust performance in control and automation environments.
