Beckhoff ED2889 | EtherCAT Terminal, 16-channel digital output

The ED2889 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 ED2889 the outputs are supplied via the 0 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 reference as the ED2889 terminal.

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

• ground 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.
