Product Description

Description

The BECKHOFF ER2338-1002 is a digital EtherCAT Box designed for decentralized industrial automation applications. Functioning as a compact input and output module, it features 8 digital channels that can be freely configured as either inputs or outputs to match specific machine and process requirements. Housed in a robust module enclosure with IP65, IP66, and IP67 protection ratings, this device is engineered for direct machine-level mounting without requiring a control cabinet.

Communication is handled via the high-speed EtherCAT protocol, connecting through dual shielded M8 sockets with screw-type locking. Power supplies are routed independently for system electronics and field loads, utilizing M8 connectors for feed and downstream connections. With support for standard 24 V DC sensor and actuator supplies, the ER2338-1002 integrates seamlessly into distributed control topologies requiring reliable signal acquisition and switching in harsh industrial environments.

Features

  • 8 digital channels, freely configurable as inputs or outputs
  • EtherCAT communication interface with 2 x M8 sockets, shielded, screw type
  • Complies with EN 61131-2, type 1/3 signal characteristics
  • Sensor supply sourced from load supply voltage, max. 0.5 A, short-circuit proof in total
  • Support for ohmic, inductive, and lamp loads with 0.5 A max. output current per channel
  • IP65, IP66, and IP67 protection rating for harsh factory floor environments
  • Power supply connection via M8 male feed socket and M8 female downstream socket

Applications

  • Decentralized machine control architectures without control cabinets
  • Automated assembly lines and material handling equipment
  • Packaging machinery requiring distributed digital signal acquisition
  • Conveyor systems and sorting units with local sensor and actuator integration

Installation Guidelines

  1. Verify the exact model number (ER2338-1002) and inspect the module housing and connectors for any transport damage before installation.
  2. Ensure all associated power supplies and field voltage sources are completely de-energized before mounting or wiring the device.
  3. Mount the EtherCAT Box securely onto a flat machine surface or mounting plate using appropriate hardware in a variable installation position as required.
  4. Connect the EtherCAT network cables to the shielded M8 bus sockets and secure the screw-type connections properly.
  5. Connect the 24 V DC power supply feeds to the M8 power connectors, ensuring correct polarity for the feed and downstream lines.
  6. Connect field sensors and actuators to the M12 A-coded input/output ports according to the application configuration.
  7. Power on the system and verify operational status via the diagnostic indicators and the master controller configuration.
