Product Description:

Representing the famous EL EtherCAT Terminals product range, the model number EL6711-0010 is produced by the Beckhoff to easily integrates with the machine’s other components for fieldbus bridging. It supports up to 124 terminals which accommodates large I/O configurations. It operates within an ambient temperature from 0°C to 55°C, guaranteeing high performance on the production floor. In addition, it can also tolerate permitted storage temperature values from -25 °C … +85 °C to guard the unit during transport and warehouse adjustments.

It draws 24 V DC ±20 % from the E-bus just to align with standard automation power rails. It also consumes typically 45 mA at the power contacts which minimizes overall bus loading. It mounts on DIN rail which speeds installation and removal without additional brackets. The gadget spans 12 mm × 100 mm × 68 mm which fits compact control panels. This terminal variant interfaces as a PROFIBUS DP-V1 slave to links with other EtherCAT and PROFIBUS networks. Moreover, it connects via EtherCAT interface and preserves real-time communication for a prolonged time. It supports PROFIBUS DP-V1 protocols which adapts to existing DP masters.

Terminal EL6711-0010 provides diagnostic LEDs which deliver immediate link, activity, and error feedback. It handles baud rates from 9600 baud to 12 Mbaud which adapts to varied PROFIBUS speeds. The module maps 244 bytes input and 244 bytes output in the process image which accommodates extensive data exchange. It forwards data using EtherCAT protocol-based data forwarding for maintaining cycle determinism. To meet vibration and shock resistance, it includes EN 60068-2-6 and EN 60068-2-27 standards that guarantees durability under mechanical stress. This type can transfer data at rates from 156 kb to 10 Mb and supports legacy and high-speed fieldbus devices.
