Beckhoff Automation eq2008-0002

The EQ2008-0002 EtherCAT Box is intended for processing digital/binary signals. It relays the binary control signals from the controller to the actuators at the process level. The eight outputs handle load currents of up to 0.5 A. A short-term overload is possible. The outputs are short-circuit proof. The total current of all outputs is limited to 4 A. The signal status of the channels is indicated by LEDs, the signals are connected via M12 screw type connectors. One channel is available per M12 socket. The modules of the EQxxxx series are made of stainless steel in hygienic design. Therefore they are ideal for applications in the food, chemical or pharmaceutical industries, which require protection rating IP69K.
