Information About EL3162

The EL3162 belongs to Beckhoff’s EL3xxx series of EtherCAT analog input terminals and is engineered for precise voltage measurement in industrial automation systems. Each channel measures voltages from 0 to 10 V with a 16-bit resolution and transmits the digitized values to the control system through the EtherCAT network. The terminal features a common ground reference for both inputs and provides 500 V electrical isolation between the field and the E-bus, ensuring signal integrity and operator safety. Distributed clock functionality enables synchronous data acquisition across multiple terminals, supporting deterministic system performance. In addition, integrated FIR/IIR filters and limit value monitoring enhance noise suppression and safety during signal processing. Compact and reliable, the EL3162 is well-suited for monitoring sensors, control voltages, and analog feedback in precision automation applications.

Key Features:

  • Dual Analog Inputs: Two single-ended channels for 0–10 V voltage measurement, ideal for simultaneous monitoring of analog sources.
  • High-Resolution Conversion: 16-bit digital representation provides exceptional accuracy for fine signal analysis and control feedback.
  • Fast Sampling and Response: With a conversion time of 50 µs, the terminal supports high-speed measurement applications.
  • Electrical Isolation: 500 V isolation between the E-bus and signal voltage ensures operational safety and stable data integrity.
  • Distributed Clock Synchronization: Enables precise timing coordination for multi-terminal measurement systems over EtherCAT networks.
  • Advanced Filtering Options: Activatable FIR and IIR digital filters minimize noise and stabilize analog signal readings in harsh environments.
  • Limit Value Monitoring: Built-in software thresholds provide automatic alarm or protection functions for defined voltage ranges.
  • Compact EtherCAT Design: Seamlessly integrates into Beckhoff’s modular I/O architecture with minimal wiring and easy installation.
  • Comprehensive Diagnostics: LED indicators per channel display live status and error conditions for straightforward maintenance.
  • Industrial Durability: Operates reliably from -25°C to +60°C with resistance to humidity and electrical interference.

The EL3162 delivers the reliability and precision required for voltage signal acquisition, monitoring, and control in EtherCAT-based automation and process control systems.
