The EP2328-0002 EtherCAT Box combines four digital inputs (two M12 sockets at the top) and four digital outputs (two M12 sockets at the bottom) in one device. The inputs have a filter of 3.0 ms. The outputs process load currents up to 2.0 A, are short-circuit-proof and protected against reverse polarity. The signal status is indicated by LED. The signals are connected via M12 screw type connectors. Two channels are available per M12 socket. The total current of all outputs is limited to 4 A.
The connected sensors are supplied via an internal, short-circuit-proof driver module with a total of 0.5 A for all sensors. The outputs are supplied via UP. All outputs are short-circuit-proof and protected against reverse polarity.
