Information About EL2004
The EL2004 is part of Beckhoff’s EtherCAT Terminal series and is designed to transfer 24 VDC binary control signals from a controller to field-level actuators. It integrates four independent digital output channels, each capable of switching up to 0.5 A with short-circuit protection and reverse polarity protection. The module provides electrical isolation between the E-bus and field potential, ensuring safe operation in industrial environments. It supports rapid switching times (60 µs ON / 300 µs OFF), making it suitable for high-speed automation tasks. With its compact 12 mm width and DIN-rail mounting design, the EL2004 enables high-density I/O configuration while maintaining excellent reliability and ease of integration into EtherCAT-based systems.
Key Features:
- Four 24 VDC digital output channels: Supports ohmic, inductive, and lamp loads for broad application compatibility.
- High-speed switching performance: Provides typical switching times of 60 µs (TON) and 300 µs (TOFF).
- Built-in protection: Includes short-circuit proof outputs, reverse polarity protection, and up to 150 mJ/channel breaking energy.
- EtherCAT integration: Interfaces directly with the EtherCAT system via the E-bus with 500 V electrical isolation.
- Compact and efficient design: Only 12 mm wide, enabling high-density I/O deployments.
- LED indication per channel: Provides real-time output status for easy diagnostics.
- Rugged environmental performance: Operates from −25°C to +60°C and handles 95% humidity without condensation.
- Zero configuration required: Automatically recognized by the EtherCAT master with no address setting needed.
The EL2004 delivers the reliability and fast response required for modern EtherCAT-based automation systems across industrial applications.
