EP2308-0001 | EtherCAT Box, 4-channel digital input + 4-channel digital output, 24 V DC, 3 ms, 0.5 A, M8
The EP2308-0001 EtherCAT Box combines four digital inputs (four M8 sockets at the top) and four digital outputs (four M8 sockets at the bottom) in one device. The inputs have a filter of 3.0 ms. The outputs process load currents up to 0.5 A and are short-circuit-proof and protected against reverse polarity. The signal status is indicated by LEDs. The signals are connected via screw type M8 connectors.
The supply of the connected sensors is carried out via 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.
