Product Description

The EL7041-0052 is a member of the EL EtherCAT Terminals produced by Beckhoff. It is specifically designed for operating a 2-phase stepper motor in bipolar series or parallel configuration. The terminal has a compact Drive Technology and it is suitable for stepper motors with a medium performance range.

The EL7041-0052 terminal includes a single output channel for bipolar series or parallel motor connection. Its output current per channel ranges from 0 and 5 A adjustable in 0.01 A steps. The terminal supports an input voltage range between 10 to 50 V DC. Its electrical isolation between the E-bus and field potential reaches up to 500 V. The terminal enables direct motor connection using spring loaded terminals. It supports an encoder interface for incremental encoders to monitor position and feedback. The terminal short circuit proof maximum current per channel is 5 A. Its material build is polycarbonate and supports industrial-grade stability. The maximum current load on power contacts is 10 A. The EL7041-0052 terminal supports a stripping length of 8 to 9 mm. It maintains operational stability in temperatures between 0 and +55°C. The terminal width height and depth of the terminal are 12 mm x 100 mm x 68 mm. Its compatibility with Beckhoff software increases system level integration and diagnostics capabilities.

The EL7041-0052 terminal is used in applications where direct and isolated control of stepper motors is necessary. Its support for encoder interface makes it suitable for closed loop control tasks in automation systems. The terminal also supports installation in environments with relative humidity up to 95 percent with no condensation. Its electrical isolation protects both bus communication and field side equipment.
