Product Description:

The EL6070-1296 features a compact terminal housing made from durable polycarbonate, providing both protection and a lightweight structure. It features built-in signal LEDs that offer clear visual feedback on the terminal's operational status, making it easier for users to monitor performance and troubleshoot issues at a glance. This terminal serves as an EtherCAT license key terminal that enables the integration of license management within EtherCAT networks. It provides a secure method for managing licenses for software applications or additional features, ensuring that only authorized devices can access the functionalities.

This unit features low power consumption with a typical 120 mA consumption from the E-bus. This ensures that the system operates efficiently with minimal energy demands. The terminal is designed to withstand both vibrations and shocks typically encountered in industrial environments, ensuring reliable performance even in challenging conditions. This robustness helps to maintain operational integrity in applications where equipment may be subjected to external forces and complies with EN 60068-2-6 and EN 60068-2-27 standards for vibration and shock resistance. The unit also features protection against solid particles per IP 20 demands, ensuring adaptability to diverse operating environments without impacting reliability.

The EL6070-1296 offers straightforward installation options for enhanced usability and ease of integration. Users can install it by mounting it on standard 35 mm DIN rails, ensuring a stable and secure installation. Alternatively, it can be installed using a double slot and key connection in a side-by-side installation method. The terminal is suited for ambient temperatures of -25 to +60 °C to ensure optimal performance. This provides a wide temperature tolerance to accommodate different operating conditions and fluctuations in temperature. This Beckhoff terminal is available from Wake Industrial with a one year warranty protection.
