Information About EL6631-0010
The Beckhoff EL6631-0010 enables efficient communication between EtherCAT networks and PROFINET RT devices, supporting both controller and device operation modes. When used as a PROFINET RT controller, the module can manage up to 15 RT devices and provides Conformance Class B functionality with full real-time support and diagnostics. As a PROFINET RT device, it establishes bidirectional data exchange between the PROFINET network and the EtherCAT system. Integrated within an EtherCAT strand of up to 65,535 devices, the EL6631-0010 utilizes a 3-port internal switch, with two ports available through RJ45 connectors, allowing simple line-topology wiring for distributed I/O. The module supports a maximum link distance of 100 meters per segment and provides robust electrical isolation, ensuring safe and reliable operation in industrial environments. Configuration is handled directly through the EtherCAT master, facilitating seamless integration into automation systems.
Key Features
- Dual-Mode Communication Terminal: operates as a PROFINET RT controller or a PROFINET RT device for flexible network integration.
- Integrated 3-Port Switch: enables efficient line-topology wiring with two externally accessible RJ45 ports for straightforward cabling.
- Conformance Class B Support: provides deterministic PROFINET RT communication with LLDP and SNMP capabilities for improved diagnostics and topology detection.
- High-Performance Data Handling: manages up to 1 kB input and 1 kB output process data, ensuring compatibility with demanding control applications.
- Supports Up to 15 PROFINET RT Devices: ideal for distributed control networks requiring stable and scalable PROFINET communication.
- Fast Real-Time Cycles: supports real-time cycles as low as 1 ms, maintaining reliable and time-critical data exchange.
- Long-Distance Segment Support: allows up to 100 m cable length per port using standard twisted-pair Ethernet wiring.
- Fully EtherCAT-Integrated: configured directly via the EtherCAT master, enabling simple parameterization within the Beckhoff control environment.
The EL6631-0010 delivers the reliability and precision required for PROFINET RT integration, real-time cross-network communication, and efficient fieldbus bridging within EtherCAT-based automation systems.
