Description

Precision measurement tasks within industrial EtherCAT networks require highly reliable, high-resolution instrumentation. The Beckhoff ELM3146-0000 is a multi-functional, 6-channel analog input terminal designed for high-accuracy data acquisition. Supporting both voltage and current measurement capabilities, each channel can be configured independently to match specific sensor interfaces. The module features integrated Distributed Clocks (DC) for precise temporal synchronization under 1 microsecond, making it ideal for dynamic testing and process diagnostics.

Housed in a robust zinc die-cast metal enclosure with signal status LEDs, this module implements a multiplexed measuring structure operating at sampling rates up to 1 ksps per channel. Advanced dynamic processing functions, such as TrueRMS calculations, PeakHold, free numeric filters, and non-linear scaling, are processed directly within the terminal, reducing computational overhead on the main controller.

Features

Six high-precision differential analog input channels with software-configurable voltage or current modes.
24-bit analog-to-digital resolution (including sign) for high measurement signal fidelity.
Supports multi-range voltage input (from ±1.25 V to ±10 V) and current measurement (±20 mA).
Distributed Clocks (DC) synchronization with accuracy significantly below 1 microsecond.
Flexible 2-, 3-, or 4-wire connection configurations utilizing 6-pin push-in service plugs.
Comprehensive diagnostics including broken wire and short-circuit monitoring.
Internal software features: ExtendedRange (107%), TrueRMS, PeakHold, integrator/differentiator, and non-linear scaling.

Applications

High-precision test benches and automotive engine testing systems.
Industrial power monitoring and TrueRMS voltage/current evaluation.
Process control systems in chemical, oil, and gas industries requiring high noise immunity.
Vibration analysis and dynamic structural health monitoring.

#ELM Series #EtherCAT Terminals

What analog measurement types does the Beckhoff ELM3146-0000 support?

The ELM3146-0000 supports both voltage measurement (ranges: ±10 V, ±5 V, ±2.5 V, ±1.25 V) and current measurement (±20 mA). Each of the 6 channels can be configured independently.

What is the sampling rate and resolution of this terminal?

The module offers high-precision 24-bit resolution (including sign) and features a maximum multiplexed sampling rate of 1 ksps (1 ms) per channel.

Does the ELM3146-0000 feature channel-to-channel electrical isolation?

No, it does not feature channel-to-channel isolation. However, it does feature 707 V DC electrical isolation between the channels and the E-bus, as well as between the channels and SGND.

What connection technology is used for wiring the sensor signals?

It uses a 6-pin push-in service plug supporting 2-, 3-, and 4-wire layouts. Solid conductors plug in directly, while fine-stranded conductors are connected using a spring mechanism operated via a screwdriver.
