Product Description:

The Beckhoff EtherCAT terminal EL6201-0000 is highly effective single-channel component for data transmission in industrial automation. Being a product in the EL EtherCAT Terminal Series, this terminal is designed to be easily integrated into numerous control systems. It has a weight of about 55 grams and is small while it provides powerful features that are suitable for today’s automation applications. A particular advantage of the EL6201-0000 is the possibility of work in AS-Interface V 2.0, V 2.11, V 3.0, which means that it can be used in various industries. This increases the flexibility of the terminal for different versions of AS-Interface and gives ease of operation in new as well as older installations. Also, in the terminal, the data transfer rates of 167 kBit/s prove the opportunity of fast communication between the components.

The address assignment in the EL6201-0000 can be done manually or automatically, and this makes the process very easy for a user and makes the system very flexible depending on the system that is being used. This characteristic makes the terminal suitable for applications that can be rapidly tuned and reconfigured with minimal down time for the installation. A final characteristic of the EL6201-0000 is duration. This is to conform to the vibration and shock requirements of the EN 60068-2-6 and EN 60068-2-27 standards to enable the terminal to withstand some of the rigorous industrial scenarios where mechanical stress is likely to occur. In addition, its EMC immunity and emission conform to EN 61000-6-2 and EN61000-6- 4 standards, thus having immunity to Electromagnetic compatibility and suitable for use in NO NOISE environment.

Thus, the Beckhoff EL6201-0000 EtherCAT terminal can be characterized as a promising, effective component designed for usage in various industries where high speed and powerful data transmission are required due to its high reliability and compatibility with the requirements of the modern industry.
