Beckhoff ELM3002-0000 | EtherCAT Terminal, 2-channel analog input, voltage

The EL3783 EtherCAT Terminal is a power monitoring I/O terminal

 used for state monitoring of a 3-phase AC voltage system.

For each phase, voltage up to 400/690 Vrms and current up to 1

Arms/5 Arms are sampled as instantaneous values with a resolution

of 16 bits. The six channels are measured simultaneously based on

the EtherCAT oversampling principle with a temporal resolution of

up to 50 µs and then passed on to the control system.

With the processing power available there and in combination with

the TwinCAT Function TF3650. true RMS or power calculations as

well as complex user-specific algorithms can be calculated via the

voltage and current characteristics. Through the oversampling

principle, the terminal is able to measure at significantly shorter 

intervals than the cycle time of the control system.

AC and DC parameters must be connected and measured with a

common reference potential.

Through the feature “ExtendedRange”, the user has the full technical

measuring range available at up to 130% of the specified nominal

measuring range. The EL3783 supports distributed clocks and can

therefore measure synchronously with other EtherCAT devices.

In combination with EL6688 it can be synchronized via IEEE 1588 to

external clocks. The terminal can also be operated without distributed

clocks.

The EL3751 analog input terminal is part of the new generation of analog

EtherCAT measurement terminals. The nominal measuring range of the

input channel can be comprehensively parameterized, both electrically

and on the software side:

• voltage measurement: ±5 mV to ±30 V (incl. ±10 V), 0…10 V, 0…5 V

• current measurement: ±20 mA, 4…20 mA, 0…20 mA, NAMUR NE43

• resistance measurement: 0…5 kΩ

• electrical resistance R in 2-/3-/4-wire connection

• RTD measurement in 2-/3-/4-wire connection

• strain gauge/load cell: ¼ bridge (350 Ω + 120 Ω), ½ bridge (±16 mV/V)

and full bridge (±32 mV/V) with integrated supply in 2-/3-/4-/5-/6-wire

connection

• potentiometer: min. 1 kΩ

The EL3453 EtherCAT power measurement terminal has voltage

inputs for direct monitoring of high-capacity generators up to max.

690 V AC, as is common in the wind industry, for example.

No upstream voltage transformer is required. The four current

inputs are electrically isolated so that the terminal can be used

in all common grounded current transformer configurations such

as 2- or 3-transformer configurations with star or delta connectionz

incl. neutral conductor current measurement.

The EL3453 can be used for simple grid analysis up to the 63rd

harmonics analysis.

Alternatively, all readings can be combined in a power quality factor

for simplified diagnostics. Like all measured terminal data, the

harmonic content can be read via the process data.
