Description

Engineered for precision industrial control loops, the EL4112-0010 analog output terminal generates standard electrical current signals in the range of -10 to +10 mA. This analog output terminal processes process data from the automation device with a high resolution of 16 bits (including sign) and transmits it with galvanic isolation directly to the field level. It features integrated Distributed Clocks (DC) support, allowing for highly synchronized, microsecond-level updates across EtherCAT networks.

The system features a 3-wire, single-ended connection technology, making it compatible with a wide array of industrial actuators, control valves, and system drives. With parameterized watchdog functionality and customizable user synchronization, this module delivers stable performance and safe-state fallback options for critical machinery systems.

Features

  • Provides two independent analog output channels with a current range of -10 to +10 mA.
  • Delivers high-precision digital-to-analog conversion at 16-bit resolution (including sign).
  • Supports EtherCAT Distributed Clocks (DC) with synchronization precision under 1 microsecond.
  • Includes short-circuit-proof outputs compatible with loads up to 500 Ohm.
  • Features integrated parameterizable watchdog state and user-activatable synchronization.
  • Constructed with a compact, rugged housing requiring only 12 mm of DIN rail width.

Applications

  • Closed-loop hydraulic and pneumatic valve positioning
  • Variable speed motor drive control systems
  • Distributed industrial process automation and telemetry
  • Power generation and turbine control auxiliary systems
