Product Description:
The EL7041 is manufactured by Beckhoff which is an EL EtherCAT terminal series designed to control a stepper motor with precision. It enables reliable position and speed control in compact automation environments using a 24 V DC nominal voltage.
The EL7041 terminal has one output channel specifically for driving a stepper motor. It offers a maximum output current of 5 A per phase to support demanding motion applications. The terminal has a 64 fold microstepping pattern which allows smoother movement and high resolution position. Its integrated encoder interface supports two channels for incremental encoders which enable real time feedback and closed loop control. This terminal supports a maximum step frequency of 500 kHz for rapid pulse processing. Its current control is software adjustable which makes it flexible for various load conditions and system requirements. The terminal galvanic isolation is provided for safe signal separation between field and control levels. It includes power contacts that can handle up to a 10 A current load. The EL7041 terminal also features E bus current consumption rated at 140 mA typical with a stripping length range of 8 to 9 mm installation is continuous and consistent. Its housing is made from durable polycarbonate which assures reliability in industrial settings. The terminal operates effectively within temperatures ranging from 0°C to +55°C suitable for most machine environments. It fits in compact panels due to its narrow 12 mm width and 12 mm pitch design.
The EL7041 terminal has one output channel and follows IP20 protection standards. It weighs approximately 90 grams which makes it lightweight for panel integration. The terminal is widely used for precise control of stepper motors in compact automation systems. It combines compact size with high output capabilities for industrial applications.
