Product Description:

The Beckhoff EL4008 is a digital output terminal, and it is designed to offer eight analog outputs with high reliability. It belongs to the series of the EL Ethercat Terminals and is made to work with the automation units. The terminal offers a signal voltage between 0 V to 10 V and works with a power supply of 24 VDC through the power contact. This terminal supports high resolutions of up to 12 bits to allow for an accurate conversion of the analog signals. The output ripple is less than 0.1%, hence it can be used in precision control applications. It has a conversion time of about 400 microseconds, which improves its flexibility for operation in different industrial processes. The EL4008 is also short-circuit protected for loads greater than 5 k?, which makes it highly secure and reliable.

Another feature of the EL4008 terminal is the distributed clocks option. This feature ensures a very high accuracy and quick synchronization between different units of the Ethercat network. Such output synchronization ensures high accuracy with less than one microsecond output error, which makes it reliable for the execution of high-speed operations. This EL4008 terminal is suitable for applications such as a motion control unit where precision and reliable performance are paramount.

The EL4008 terminal doesn't take much space and has a weight of less than 85 grams. This low weight helps it to be integrated into other systems without affecting the performance of the whole system. This digital output terminal is suitable for implementation in systems where low-weight devices are needed, like control cabinets or mobile equipment. It incorporates advanced features to ensure a precise analog output even in large-scale industrial applications.
