I/O construction kit for all signal types and fieldbus systems

Beckhoff supplies an extensive range of fieldbus components for all common I/Os and bus systems in different designs. With the Bus Terminals in the IP20 protection and the Fieldbus Box modules in IP67, all important signal types and fieldbus systems are covered and the right product is offered for every application.

Use in all areas

The extensive Beckhoff I/O portfolio includes products for all areas of use and environmental conditions. The classic KLxxxx and ELxxxx Bus and EtherCAT Terminals in IP20 protection offer a wide variety of fieldbus protocols and signal types. The terminals are plugged into one another and are primarily used in terminal boxes or in the control cabinet, where they are protected against external influences. Their low housing width in combination with a high channel density make them a space-saving solution in the control cabinet.

The EtherCAT product range is extended still further in the IP20 area by the EJxxx EtherCAT plug-in modules, which are mainly suitable for the series production of machines and plants. Based on the EtherCAT I/O system, the design of the EJ modules allows them to be plugged directly into a PCB. This is called a signal distribution board and distributes the supply of power and the signals to the application-specific connection technology. Dispensing with the classic individual wiring considerably reduces the installation time in series machine production.

The Fieldbus, IO-Link, and EtherCAT Box modules in IP67 protection allow use in harsh environmental conditions. With their compact and watertight design, they are suitable for direct installation in the machine.

Flexible communication

With the Bus Terminals in IP20 and the Fieldbus Box modules in IP67, an extensive portfolio of fieldbus-neutral I/O modules is available. They are connected flexibly to the desired fieldbus or industrial Ethernet system via Bus Couplers or master terminals/boxes.

In addition to the fieldbus-neutral components, Beckhoff also supplies a complete product range for EtherCAT: The real-time Ethernet solution for industrial automation is characterized by outstanding performance characteristics and simple handling. The result: high-precision machine and plant controllers that lead to a significantly increased production efficiency. The EtherCAT components are currently available in protection rating IP20 and IP67.

In the IP67 area, devices with EtherCAT P technology are available in the EPPxxx modules. EtherCAT P combines supply and communication in a 4-core standard Ethernet cable and thus reduces sources of error and cabling work.

Extensive variety of signals

The various I/O systems offer solutions for all common signals in automation technology. These include on the one hand the acquisition and generation of binary and digital signals. On the other, however, analog signals of measured variables such as current, voltage, temperature, and resistance can also be acquired. The Beckhoff product portfolio also includes products for the generation of analog current and voltage signals. Apart from the signals that they can measure or output, they also differ with regard to their measurement or output uncertainty as well as the resolution.

In addition to the standard functionalities of digital and analog I/Os, the portfolio also offers products for special applications, such as power measurement, the evaluation of various encoder interfaces, or the control of various motors. Through the combination of standard signals with special functionalities, Beckhoff has the right solution for every automation task.

Everything from one source

The Beckhoff I/O construction kit is completed by infrastructure components such as Ethernet switches and PCI/PCIe Fieldbus Cards, as well as system components such as filter, potential distribution, and overcurrent protection terminals. The range is rounded off by accessories such as cables and connectors. Pre-assembled cables and cables for field assembly are offered. The tried-and-tested accessories offer optimum compatibility with the Beckhoff product portfolio. Due to the large selection of supplementary products, such as power supply units and current transformers, the customer can procure a complete system from a single source.

Beckhoff customers obtain a perfectly matched automation solution due to the optimum compatibility of the I/O components with the Industrial PCs, the TwinCAT automation software, and the drive components.
