Product Description:
Beckhoff top-notch EL6784 variant is a single-channel module that is used for synchronous serial data acquisition. It features one channel where the encoder information is compressed into a smaller form. It is a high-speed I/O network compatible with EtherCAT terminal interface. Instead of having an input type bearing SSI (Synchronous Serial Interface), it accepts SSI input type which allows for direct connection to incremental encoders.
The product allows input frequencies up to 1 MHz in order to captures high-resolution position updates. It operates on a nominal 24 V DC input voltage with a common industrial supply standard. It also draws approx. 230 mA from the E-bus for managing efficient power distribution. The drive accepts load-supply currents depending on encoder load that adapts to various encoder current demands. It outputs RS422 signal levels ensure robust differential communication. With a supports cable lengths up to 50 m, it extends encoder placement flexibility. Moreover, it can transfer process data cyclically as input and guarantees real-time feedback in control loops.
Part number EL6784 runs at an ambient temperature of 0 °C and 55 °C which covers most factory ambient conditions. It can easily mount on a DIN rail and simplifies cabinet installation. Further, it resolves input data up to 32 bit which delivers high positional accuracy. The controller supplies 500 V isolation between the E-bus and encoder signals. It filters input jitter to below 100 ns using distributed clock synchronization which supports highly synchronous multi-axis systems. This terminal type interprets station addresses across a 0–65535 range, enabling flexible addressing in large EtherCAT connections.
Frequently Asked Questions about EL6784:
Q: How far can EL6784 terminal connect to encoders?
A: This component supports cable lengths up to 50 m which extends encoder placement options and maintains signal integrity across long distances.
Q: What resolution does EL6784 offer?
A: The model EL6784 captures data up to 32-bit resolution which yields fine positional granularity for enhancing motion control precision.
Q: Which temperature range suits EL6784?
A: It runs from 0 °C to 55 °C which covers typical industrial environments. This prevents performance drift in standard factory conditions.
Q: How much current does EL6784 draw from the E-bus?
A: The unit draws approx. 230 mA that reduces total bus power demand. It enables more modules per coupler without power feeds.
Q: How is EL6784 terminal mounted?
A: It mounts on 35 mm DIN rail which simplifies integration into control cabinets.
