Engineered to meet the stringent demands of high-speed industrial metrology, the Beckhoff ELM3502-0000 measurement terminal captures precise differential signals from strain gauges and resistor bridges. Supporting full, half, and quarter-bridge topologies, this high-end module features 24-bit resolution and simultaneous sampling speeds up to 20 ksps per channel. Enclosed in a robust zinc die-cast housing for optimal thermal and electrical shielding, it integrates seamlessly into Beckhoff EtherCAT control architectures, utilizing Distributed Clocks for synchronized, sub-microsecond multi-channel alignment.

The ELM3502-0000 is part of Beckhoff’s high-end measurement class. Unlike standard analog slice terminals (such as the EL3356), the ELM3502-0000 provides vastly superior sampling speeds and built-in numerical filters, making it compatible with complex TwinCAT 3 Metrology functions. It requires a compatible EtherCAT Coupler (e.g., EK1100) and proper configuration in TwinCAT for oversampling features.
Due to its high sampling rate of 20 ksps, the terminal is sensitive to high-frequency electrical noise and electromagnetic interference. Standard unshielded cabling can distort measurements. Ensure that the metal housing of the ELM3502-0000 makes direct, clean contact with the grounded DIN rail via the grounding springs on the rear panel. When routing signal lines, keep bridge cables separated from high-voltage AC or motor-drive output lines.
For quarter-bridge installations, verify that the internal completion resistors are correctly parameterized within the TwinCAT System Manager. Ensure the 6-pin push-in service plug is locked securely in place. If utilizing Distributed Clocks (DC), activate sync managers in TwinCAT to achieve sub-microsecond jitter timing across multiple measurement channels on the network segment.
Mount the ELM3502-0000 vertically onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail (EN 60715) with the double slot and key connection securely engaged with adjacent modules.
Connect the bridge measurement lines to the 6-pin service plug utilizing standard ferrules or solid conductors with a stripping length of 8 to 9 mm.
Ensure the shield of the bridge cable is terminated at the cabinet entry gland plate or connected to a low-impedance ground block nearby.
Power on the EtherCAT segment and scan the module in the TwinCAT System Manager to configure the digital filters and sensor calibration properties.
