Product Description

Description

The BECKHOFF EL3162 is an EtherCAT Terminal featuring two analog input channels designed for voltage signals ranging from 0 to 10 V. Engineered with a 16-bit resolution in a single-ended configuration, this terminal processes analog field signals and transmits them directly to the automation controller via the high-speed EtherCAT network.

Integrated within the modular BECKHOFF I/O system, the EL3162 provides advanced signal processing capabilities including activatable FIR and IIR filters, limit value monitoring, and support for distributed clocks to ensure precise time synchronization across the industrial network. Power for the internal electronics is supplied via the E-bus, while standard compact process imagery optimizes data exchange with the master controller.

Features

  • 2-channel analog input terminal for voltage measurement in the 0 to 10 V range
  • 16-bit resolution including sign for high-precision data acquisition
  • Single-ended input technology with an internal resistance greater than 200 kOhm
  • Distributed clocks support for synchronous data acquisition across the network
  • Activatable FIR and IIR filters for adjustable signal conditioning
  • Integrated limit value monitoring for threshold-based event handling
  • Electrical isolation of 500 V between the E-bus and signal voltage

Applications

  • Industrial analog sensor data acquisition and monitoring
  • Process control systems requiring precise voltage measurement
  • Machine automation for position, pressure, or flow feedback
  • Synchronized data logging applications utilizing distributed clocks

Additionally, the unit incorporates advanced signal processing capabilities like activatable FIR and IIR filters for precise data conditioning.
How are power and communication supplied to the BECKHOFF EL3162?
The BECKHOFF EL3162 receives its internal electronics power supply directly via the E-bus connection from the automation system. It consumes a typical current of 170 mA from the E-bus while facilitating compact process imagery for seamless data exchange with the master controller. Electrical isolation of 500 V is maintained between the E-bus and the field signal voltage to protect internal components.
Does the BECKHOFF EL3162 support synchronized data acquisition across industrial networks?
Yes, the BECKHOFF EL3162 fully supports distributed clocks, ensuring highly accurate time synchronization across multiple devices in the industrial network. This feature is crucial for applications requiring coordinated data logging, synchronized multi-axis machine feedback, and precise control loops. The conversion time of approximately 50 microseconds further optimizes fast-paced industrial automation processes.
What type of physical connections and wiring are compatible with the BECKHOFF EL3162?
The BECKHOFF EL3162 utilizes spring-actuated connection technology that is operated easily using a standard screwdriver. It accepts solid, stranded, or ferrule-equipped conductors with cross-sections ranging from 0.08 to 2.5 mm² (AWG 28 to 14) depending on the wire type used. Conductors should be stripped to a length of 8 to 9 mm prior to insertion into the spring terminals.
