Product Description:
This EL6910 model is an EtherCAT terminal that integrates with automation setups with minimal configuration and fast commissioning. The product comes from Beckhoff’s EL EtherCAT Terminals product line, supporting standardized hardware modules across various automation applications. Multiple inputs and outputs per configuration allow tailored Input/Output assignments to maintain diverse control tasks with greater flexibility. With an EtherCAT connection, users can get instantaneous response for precise process synchronization and high-speed data exchange.
A supply voltage of 24 V DC -15…+20% ensures stable power delivery for consistent module operation. Around 210 mA of current consumption from the E-bus can enable energy usage feasible. Drawing about 50 mA from load voltage provides low auxiliary power demands that reduce system power losses. A maximum coupler address of 255 enables extensive device addressing that supports large network topologies. Safety functions for this product include programming for safety logic which allows customized fail-safe operations to match specific application requirements. The module achieves Safety Integrity Level SIL 3 that meets IEC 61508 standards and delivers high reliability in critical safety tasks.
An IP20 degree of protection provides basic finger-safe guarding that ensures compliance with industrial safety norms. For part number EL6910, the operating temperature range spans 0°C to +55°C guaranteeing reliable performance under common factory conditions. With dimensions measuring 12 mm width by 100 mm height and 68 mm depth, the terminal fits compact installation spaces. Direct DIN rail mounting enables quick slotting into control cabinets thus improving setup efficiency. A cycle time of approx. 1 millisecond supports rapid I/O refresh rates, enhancing real-time control responsiveness. The weight of about 50 grams keeps overall system mass low and that further simplifies handling and reduces load on mounting rails.
