Information About EL6022
The EL6022 is part of the Beckhoff EtherCAT Terminal system, developed to enable seamless integration of legacy and serial-based devices into modern EtherCAT architectures. It features two independent RS-232 interfaces, each supporting full-duplex communication with configurable baud rates up to 115.2 kbaud. The terminal provides galvanic isolation between the field side and the EtherCAT system bus, ensuring reliable data transmission and noise immunity in industrial environments. Diagnostic LEDs indicate channel status and data activity, simplifying commissioning and troubleshooting. Mounted on a DIN rail, the EL6022 integrates directly into the modular EtherCAT I/O system and is configured using Beckhoff TwinCAT software.
Key Features:
- Design: Dual-channel RS-232 serial interface EtherCAT terminal.
- Channels: Two independent RS-232 communication ports.
- Speed: Supports baud rates up to 115.2 kbaud.
- Isolation: Galvanic isolation between field and system side for noise immunity.
- Diagnostics: Channel LEDs for communication and status indication.
- Integration: Configured and monitored via Beckhoff TwinCAT software.
- Installation: Compact DIN rail–mounted terminal for distributed I/O systems.
- Application Range: Ideal for integrating serial devices in machine automation and process control.
The EL6022 delivers the flexibility, reliability, and compatibility required for connecting serial equipment to EtherCAT-based automation systems.
