Product Description:

Beckhoff Automation is an engineering pacesetter that specializes in the production and design of automation devices such as drive controllers, EtherCAT communication Modules, and PCL control units. The EPP2008-0002 EtherCAT P Box is one of the many state-of-the-art machines produced by the company to improve upon the EtherCAT communication technology. This product is designed to transmit binary control signals from automation devices present on actuators and deliver them to the process level while maintaining electrical isolation. The product is built with the best materials available, and before delivery, it is operated according to international standards. Unlike traditional industrial devices, this product can comfortably function in harsh conditions without getting affected by any dirt, dust, or even water spray. The housing has a black color and belongs to the IP67 protection class.

The EPP2008-0002 EtherCAT P Box establishes signal input connections using two special screw type M12 connectors; these connectors are inserted into the M12 sockets present at the top of the product. In total, there are about 8 output connectors present on this product. The delivery of this product is handled by FedEx, UPS, and DHL. Wake Industrial provides worldwide delivery and a 12-month warranty on the product. The nominal voltage delivered from this Box to connected components is about 24 volts; also, the EPP2008-0002 can supply a maximum current of 0.5 amperes through each of the output channels.

The EPP2008-0002 interface operates with an auxiliary power current of 20 milliamperes, it also maintains electrical isolation of 500 volts. It takes about 50 microseconds for this product to switch on and another 100 microseconds to switch off. The installation of this product requires two fixing holes with a 3.5-millimetre diameter. The product weighs only about 0.165 kilograms.
