Product Description:

The EP6228-3032 digital input module from Beckhoff provides a robust and versatile solution for connecting sensors in industrial automation systems. As part of Beckhoff's EP Digital Input Series, it supports the high-speed EtherCAT communication protocol, enabling seamless integration into modern automation networks. Through its eight IO-Link interfaces, the module offers connectivity for a wide range of sensors and simplifies wiring requirements compared to traditional solutions. Each interface operates at nominal voltages of 24 VDC and supports data transfer rates of up to 230.4 kbps, allowing communication with IO-Link devices from simple sensors to more advanced smart sensors.

Weighing in at approximately 440 grams, the EP6228-3032 maintains a compact profile suited for applications with stringent space constraints. Its lightweight construction eases installation tasks without compromising durability. Reflecting its industrial-grade design, the module adheres to stringent protection ratings of IP65, IP66, and IP67 for resistance to dust and water. This enables reliable performance even in demanding environments such as those exposed to machining processes, wash-down procedures, or outdoor climates. Extensive testing also confirms compliance with standards for vibration, shock, electromagnetic compatibility, and operating temperature range.

Beyond its eight IO-Link connections, the module incorporates additional power supplies to support connected devices. These include 24VDC supplies of 11.2A total capacity for IO-Link sensor power and 4A split across two ports for extended device functionality. Internal filtering circuitry protects against voltage fluctuations to maintain steady power delivery. The module operates from a typical current draw of 130mA plus sensor loads to minimize energy usage.
