Product Description:
The ER1018-0001 is a versatile Beckhoff EtherCAT module designed to provide precise communication and control in automation systems. It functions as a decentralized I/O module, allowing fast and reliable data exchange between the EtherCAT master and connected devices. The module’s design allows for easy integration into a wide range of systems. It features 8 channels for digital input that allow it to monitor and process up to eight discrete on/off signals simultaneously. This makes it a versatile solution in industrial applications where multiple sensors or switches need to be monitored. The module can handle a wide range of input configurations without the need for additional hardware, simplifying wiring and system design.
This EtherCAT module is equipped with two M8 socket connectors, each featuring a 4-pin, A-coded, shielded design. These connectors ensure a reliable and secure communication link that also offers robust EMI protection for enhanced signal integrity. This module is adaptable to a wide range of power setups and can function effectively with an input of 24 V DC (-15%/+20%). It can withstand fluctuations in input voltage without performance disruption, ensuring consistent performance even in challenging environments. This module comes with an input filter with a response time of 10 µs to minimize interference by unwanted high-frequency noise.
The ER1018-0001 operates with a typical input current of 3 mA. This low current consumption ensures that the module remains energy-efficient, contributing to system sustainability. The module provides a sensor supply sourced from the control voltage, providing a maximum current of 0.5 A for connected sensors. The control voltage is short-circuit protected, preventing damage to both the module and the connected sensors in case of fault conditions.
