Beckhoff ED2809 | EtherCAT Terminal, 16-channel digital output

The ED2809 digital output terminal connects the binary 24 V DC

control signals from the automation device on to the actuators at

the process level with electrical isolation.

The EtherCAT Terminal has 16 channels that indicate their signal

state via light emitting diodes (status LEDs).

The power contacts are looped through internally.

In the ED2809 the outputs are supplied via the 24 V DC power

contact. The connection technology is optimized for single-ended

signals (common reference point). To ensure error-free operation,

all connected components must use the same ground reference

as the ED2809.

Special features:

• suitable for controlling different types of loads:

• resistive loads (e.g., resistors)

• inductive loads (e.g., relays, contactors, valves)

• capacitive loads

• max. output current of 0.5 A per channel

• positive switching

• short-circuit proof outputs: protection against overload or short circuit

• reverse polarity protection in the event of incorrect polarity of the supply voltage

The ED series EtherCAT Terminals have push-in connection technology which makes wiring easy and tool-free.
