Introduction

EtherCAT Terminal, 16-channel digital input, 24 V DC, 3 ms, positive/ground switching

The EL1429 digital input terminal acquires the binary 24 V _DC control signals from the process level and transmits them, in electrically isolated form, to the higher-level automation device. Each EtherCAT Terminal has sixteen channels that indicate their signal state via light emitting diodes.

Special features:

• flexible switching logic: positive or ground switching, per channel
• no bouncing due to mechanical switches thanks to 3 ms input filter
• tool-free connection thanks to direct plug-in technique for solid wire conductors
• space-saving installation in the control cabinet
• direct connection of multi-channel sensors in 1‑wire connection technology in the smallest space
