Beckhoff Automation epp2816-0003

The EPP2816-0003 EtherCAT P Box module is intended for processing digital/binary signals. It connects the binary control signals of the automation device to the actuators at process level. The outputs each process an output current of up to 0.5 A. Short-term overload may occur. The outputs are short-circuit proof. An output short circuit is detected and forwarded to the control level. The total current of all outputs is limited to 3 A.   The channels indicate their signal status in groups by means of LEDs. Alternatively, the status is displayed in the optional spring-cage connector. The signal connection is established via connectors with spring-cage technology, with the option of choosing between 1- and 3-pin versions. The module is supplied without connectors. The 16-channel design offers a very high channel density in a very small space. The protection rating is limited on account of the spring-cage connector. The module is supplied without connectors.
