Product Description:
Beckhoff created the EL3612 as an EtherCAT terminal for monitoring precise temperature information from thermocouple sensors.
This terminal lets engineers get exact temperature readings using reliable components in a small space for automatic industrial equipment needs. The EL3612 simplifies temperature monitoring by accepting measurements from four separate input connections in a single tiny system design. The system works with many thermocouple devices as it measures signals between -100 mV and 100 mV based on sensor selection. Due to its wide functionality, the device proves useful across multiple sectors, including industrial processes, heating, ventilation, air conditioning systems, and machines that require temperature surveillance. The terminal can measure temperature at 16-bit precision levels that produce precise temperature results. The terminal converts one channel of data within 10 milliseconds to provide updates that real-time control applications need.
Custom filter settings through software and a 3 kHz filter limitation allow users to select perfect signal conditioning solutions that resist noise and keep measurements reliable under harsh circumstances. The terminal provides off-channel interference protection that reaches 60 dB to shield individual signals and keep data accurate. The terminal receives power from the K-bus system with a 24 V direct electrical supply while using a steady 130 milliamperes. The small size of 12mm by 100mm by 68mm helps this unit fit easily in control cabinets on DIN rail despite its limited space. The system works without issue across temperature ranges from 0 °C to +55 °C, which matches typical industrial settings. It can be purchased at Wake Industrial with a one-year warranty.
