Beckhoff EL2024 EtherCAT Terminal

The Beckhoff EL2024 is a 4-channel digital output EtherCAT Terminal designed to switch 24 V DC signals from an automation controller to connected actuators with complete electrical isolation. It supports various load types, including ohmic, inductive, and lamp loads, and features short-circuit-proof outputs rated up to 2 A per channel. Integrated status LEDs display output signal state in real-time.

Thanks to its 2-wire connection design, the EL2024 allows for direct connection of four actuators with individual ground terminals, offering a practical and space-saving I/O solution for industrial applications.
