Beckhoff ED3072 | EtherCAT Terminal, 2-channel analog input

The ED3072 analog input terminal is a universal 10 V/20 mA input

module in the 16-bit class for simple control tasks. Input signals

in the -10/0...+10 V or -20/0/+4...+20 mA ranges can be processed

per channel. Voltage and current signals are connected to different

terminal points. CoE can be used to set each channel to U or I mode

in TwinCAT or from the controller.

The voltage and current inputs are single-ended.

This means that one channel connection point in each case is

connected to the 24 V DC or 0 V DC power contact in the terminal.

All inputs are digitized with a 16-bit resolution and transmitted to the

superordinate automation system under electrical isolation.

With a technical measuring range of ±107% of the nominal range,

the terminal also supports commissioning with sensor values in

the limit range and evaluation in accordance with NAMUR NE43.

The ED3072 has two individually configurable inputs and supports 2-,

3-, and 4-wire connections. It can supply sensors directly with 24 V DC.

Two separately fused power supply outputs are also available.

Special features:

• combined input terminal: 10 V/20 mA

• ±107% measuring range

• 2 ksps conversion rate per channel for standard automation tasks

The ED series EtherCAT Terminals have push-in connection technology

which makes wiring easy and tool-free.
