Here’s a concise description of the EL2828 Beckhoff EtherCAT Terminal:

• Functionality: The EL2828 is an 8-channel digital output terminal designed to connect binary 24V DC control signals from automation devices to actuators at the process level with electrical isolation.

• Signal Indication: Each channel’s signal state is displayed via LEDs, providing clear visual feedback.

• Protection Features: The terminal is protected against polarity reversal, overload, and short-circuit, ensuring reliable operation.

• Power Supply: The outputs are powered via the 24V power contact, with a maximum total output current of 10A.

• Compact Design: The HD EtherCAT Terminals (High Density) feature 16 connection points in a 12-mm terminal block, optimizing space usage.

• Connection Method: Conductors can be connected without tools using a direct plug-in technique, simplifying installation
