Product Description:
Beckhoff EtherCAT terminal EL6731-1008 is a high performance solution which enables you to integrate systems into the PROFIBUS DP fieldbus easily. This terminal is from the EL EtherCAT Terminal Series and the flexibility and speed of EtherCAT are enhanced with the robust communication advantages of PROFIBUS for industrial automation and control systems. The small form factor of the EL6731-1008 allows for simple integration, especially where space is limited; it measures only 70 grams in weight but is very versatile. The self-teaching terminal in the paper is provided with a 9-pin PROFIBUS DP galvanically isolated connector to provide a highly reliable signal quality. The parameters include data transfer rate of 9.6 kbaud to 12 Mbaud and is capable to do low and high speed data transfer. This versatility is especially important in the cases when different devices and systems need different communication rates.
The status LEDs located on the terminal give instantaneous information about the state of the hardware within the system to the operators and the engineers handling the system in an effort to give them timely information about system performance and mean time to repair. The EL6731-1008 is equipped with CE, UL, ATEX, IECEx certifications; that means the device is designed to operate safely and stably in industrial conditions.
Besides the powerful communication capabilities, the terminal is designed with a galvanic isolation of the fieldbus interface from EtherCAT network such that voltage surges do not affect the system in the long run. On the whole, the Beckhoff EL6731-1008 EtherCAT terminal is a robust and universal element that allows getting high performance in the severe conditions of industrial use.
