Product Description

Description

The EL4021 is a high-precision EtherCAT Terminal from Beckhoff, featuring a 1-channel analog output capable of generating a 4…20 mA current signal. Designed for industrial control systems, this module utilizes 12-bit resolution to provide accurate output control with a conversion time of approximately 100 µs. The EL4021 supports Distributed Clocks (DC), enabling highly precise synchronization across an EtherCAT network with a precision of << 1 µs.

Features

1-channel analog output (4…20 mA current)
12-bit resolution for precise signal control
Distributed Clocks (DC) support for sub-microsecond synchronization
Short-circuit proof design with < 500 Ω load capacity
Electrical isolation of 500 V between E-bus and signal voltage
Compact terminal housing with integrated signal LEDs for status monitoring
Optional watchdog function for user-specific output values with ramp control
