Cables overview
The EP2316-0008 EtherCAT Box combines eight digital inputs and eight digital outputs in a single device. The inputs have a filter of 10 µs. The outputs process load currents up to 0.5 A and are short-circuit-proof and protected against reverse polarity. The signal state is indicated for signal groups by means of light emitting diodes. The signal connection is established via a 25-pin D-sub socket. The 8/8-channel design offers a very high channel density in a very small space. With IP67 D-sub connectors, 16-channel valve terminals can be connected cost-effectively and decentralized in the field.
The supply of the connected sensors is done by an internal, short-circuit proof driver module with a total of 0.5 A for all sensors. The outputs are supplied via UP. All outputs are short-circuit-proof and protected against reverse polarity. The 16-channel design offers a very high channel density in a very small space.
