Ultra-high-speed I/O
Cycletime up to 100 us
Most cost-effective wiring
Industrial Ethernet cable (CAT5e shielding protection) The distance of each station can be up to 100 meters, and the expansion can be nearly unlimited. Up to 65535 I/O modules can be connected in series
Variety of I/O channels
A wide variety of I/O modules are available including EtherCAT I/O modules offering 4, 8, 16 and 32 channels.
LED indicator
Troubleshoot and verify I/O status through indicator lights
Modular design
Saving system volume W x H x D (mm) : 33×127×108
Faster and faster
In order to meet the faster application requirements of ICP DAS users, the EC series supports a faster 100 μs Cycle time.
Screw-lockable RJ45 connector
There are screw holes (20 mm spacing) on both sides of the RJ45 connector. In addition to the general network cable, the network cable with screw locking can also be used to reduce the risk of the network cable falling off due to vibration.
Easy and fast firmware update
EC series modules all provide FOE online firmware update function. When your module encounters a situation that requires immediate firmware update to solve the problem, you can solve the problem immediately with just one click.
Explicit Device ID
Explicit Device ID is one of the ways to identify the module, and a unique ID number can be set through the external rotary switch of the module. This feature can be used to connect and disconnect products in certain applications and to prevent incorrect cable installation during EtherCAT wiring work.
