Product Description:
The EL5101-0090 is an Ethercat terminal by Beckhoff designed to connect to a wide range of encoders. It features an incremental encoder interface that supports differential (RS422) and single-ended (TTL) signal formats. The terminal comes with one input for encoder connection and two extra 24 V digital inputs that enable users to manage the counter's status effectively. The additional inputs can be utilized for storing specific data, blocking operations or setting the counter to a desired state. The terminal provides an encoder voltage of 5 V DC, with a maximum current draw of 0.5 A. It is designed to support various encoder connections, including a differential input configuration (RS422) for signals A, B, and C, along with their inverted counterparts (A̅, B̅, C̅).
The EL5101-0090 features a limit frequency of 1 MHz, meaning the device can handle signals that change up to 1 million times per second. This allows for precise measurements and control in high-speed applications. The terminal supports TwinSAFE SC technology, enhancing safety functions for improved efficiency. TwinSAFE SC allows for the implementation of safety measures, such as emergency stop and safe motion monitoring, without requiring separate wiring or additional hardware. The terminal is equipped with a wire breakage detection feature that allows it to identify when an encoder or sensor connection has been interrupted due to a wire failure. This helps prevent potential downtimes and operational issues.
The EL5101-0090 can function effectively in environments ranging from -25°C to +60°C, making it suitable for a variety of applications. It can also operate effectively in relative humidity levels of up to 95% without condensation, allowing it to be used in moist environments. It has an IP20 protection rating, making it suited for use in indoor environments.
