Product Description:
Beckhoff's EL4028 EtherCAT Terminal guarantees reliable signal processing for applications involving industrial automation.
The gadget may be used to operationally regulate analog-powered devices since it has eight outputs that operate on signals ranging from 4 to 20 mA. 24 V DC power access via the terminal's dedicated power connectors enables energy efficiency in connected devices. With clock precision values below 1 µs, the EL4028's distributed clock characteristics allow for perfect system-wide time synchronization, making it the ideal choice for time-sensitive applications. The terminal reduces signal distortions by achieving 12-bit resolution for accurate signal transmission. Because the error deviation is kept under control at values less than 0.1% of the final value, the output signals show remarkable precision. With a 400 µs conversion time, the terminal offers signal processing speed for applications requiring fast reactions. System overloads are avoided by maintaining optimal power consumption between the E-bus at 100 mA and the power connections at 50 mA. The terminal can work reliably in a variety of industrial conditions since it operates efficiently in temperatures ranging from -25°C to +60°C.
The terminal system enables effective storage in harsh environments by operating at storage temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C. CE, CCC, UL, ATEX, and IECEx are just a few of the safety and performance compliance certifications that the EL4028 possesses. Wider industrial use results from the terminal's several regulatory certificates, which enable it to operate safely in hazardous areas. With its accurate controls and robust architecture, the EL4028 EtherCAT terminal offers a reliable way to handle 4–20 mA output signals, satisfying the demands of automated manufacturing environments. It can be purchased at Wake Industrial with a one-year warranty.
