The Beckhoff EL2008 Digital Output Terminal is a versatile and reliable component designed for seamless integration into a variety of industrial automation systems. This terminal features eight channels, each capable of handling 24 V DC with an output current of up to 0.35 A per channel. Its robust design ensures compatibility with both ohmic and inductive loads, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
Engineered for precision, the EL2008 boasts typical switching times of 10 µs for turn-on and 25 µs for turn-off, providing efficient and responsive control for actuators at the process level. The terminal's electrical isolation of 500 V between the E-bus and field voltage offers additional protection and reliability in demanding environments.
Ease of use is a key aspect of the EL2008, with no address setting required and configuration managed via the TwinCAT System Manager. The terminal's signal state is clearly indicated through light emitting diodes, allowing for quick visual diagnostics and status checks.
Constructed to withstand the rigours of industrial settings, the EL2008 operates within an ambient temperature range of -25°C to +55°C and can be stored in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C. With a relative humidity tolerance of 95% without condensation, it is designed to perform reliably even in challenging conditions.
The compact dimensions of approximately 15 mm x 100 mm x 70 mm, and a weight of around 55 g, make this terminal an efficient space-saving solution that can be easily mounted on a 35 mm mounting rail conforming to EN 60715. Its vibration and shock resistance comply with EN 60068-2-6 and EN 60068-2-27 standards, respectively, ensuring durability and longevity.
The EL2008 Digital Output Terminal is a testament to Beckhoff's commitment to quality and innovation, providing a high-performance solution for digital control in industrial automation.
