Beckhoff Automation ep2809-0042

The EP2809-0042 EtherCAT Box is intended for processing digital/binary signals. It switches the binary control signals from the automation device to the actuators at the process level. The outputs process an output current of up to max. 0.5?A. A short-term overload is possible. The outputs are short-circuit proof. The total current of all outputs is limited to 16?A. 7/8" connectors are used for the input/output of the supply voltage. ? The signal status of the channels is indicated by LEDs. The signals are connected via M12 screw type connectors. Two channels are available per M12 socket. The 16-channel design offers a very high channel density in a very small space. ? The EtherCAT connection is made via d-coded M12 sockets.
