Product Description:
The EP1518-0002 digital input module from Beckhoff features a host of capabilities making it well-suited for a variety of industrial applications. Boasting eight total inputs, two of which can be utilized as 32-bit up/down counters, the module provides an ample number of channels to accommodate most sensing and control needs. The inputs are protected with a robust IP65, IP66, and IP67 rating, rendering the device impervious to dust and moisture ingress. This robust construction ensures reliable, long-term performance even within demanding industrial environments.
In addition to its durable housing, the EP1518-0002 stands out through flexible configuration options. Its input filter is adjustable from 0 to 100 milliseconds, empowering users to tune the module based on specific machine requirements. Fast-moving processes may require a brief filter to avoid delays, while vibration-prone equipment could benefit from extended filtering to eliminate false triggers. This wide filter range provides optimal input conditioning for nearly any application scenario.
Complementing the adjustable input characteristics is a nominal 24VDC input voltage with a generous tolerance of -15% to +20%. Such a wide operating voltage bandwidth permits connectivity to a variety of field devices without strict compliance requirements. The module can reliably read signals even as supply voltage fluctuates within this extensive range. Additional interface amenities include two M8 EtherCAT connections and five-pin M12 input connectors, providing ready integration into control cabinet designs.
