The Beckhoff EL3024 is digital input module , It is a part of the EtherCAT I/O system and provides four digital inputs.
Here are the key features and specifications of the EL3024 module:
Inputs: The module has four digital input channels that can be used to read the status of external binary signals.
Input Types: The inputs are compatible with a wide range of signal types, including DC voltage signals and AC voltage signals up to 230 V.
Sinking/Sourcing: Each input channel can be configured as either a sinking or a sourcing input. This flexibility allows you to adapt the module to different types of sensors or control devices.
Input Filtering: The module provides configurable filter times for each input channel, allowing you to eliminate noise and improve signal stability.
Diagnostic LEDs: The EL3024 module features diagnostic LEDs that indicate the status of each input channel, making it easy to monitor the input signals during operation.
EtherCAT Communication: The module communicates with the control system using the EtherCAT protocol, which provides fast and reliable communication.
TwinCAT Integration: The EL3024 module is fully integrated into Beckhoff's TwinCAT software environment, allowing for easy configuration, programming, and monitoring of the module.
