Product Description P/N: EL3124
Description
The EL3124 is an EtherCAT terminal with four differential analog input channels, designed to handle current signals in the range of 4 to 20 mA. The current is digitized with a resolution of 16 bits and transmitted in an electrically isolated form to the higher-level automation device. The terminal features differential inputs with a common internal ground potential. It combines four channels in a single housing.

Information About EL3124
The EL3124 EtherCAT Terminal is designed to manage signals within the 4 to 20 mA current range. It utilizes 16-bit resolution for precise digitization of current values, ensuring accurate transmission to the higher-level automation system while maintaining electrical isolation. Featuring differential inputs, each channel shares a common internal ground potential, facilitating stable operation across all inputs.
Integrated within a single housing, the EL3124 consolidates four independent channels, optimizing space efficiency in industrial setups. The terminal incorporates built-in diagnostics to detect open lead or overload conditions promptly. These conditions trigger status alerts relayed to the controller via the E-bus interface, enhancing system reliability and operational oversight.
Signal status indicators, implemented through light emitting diodes (LEDs), provide real-time visibility into operational states, aiding in rapid troubleshooting and maintenance. Specific error LEDs are dedicated to flagging overload conditions and broken wires, ensuring swift identification of critical issues affecting signal integrity.
