PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
BECKHOFF EL4102-0000 - 2-Channel EtherCAT Analog Output Terminal
This EtherCAT Terminal provides two independent analog output channels, converting digital control values from the EtherCAT network into precise voltage signals. Engineered for distributed I/O systems, it facilitates direct control of analog actuators, proportional valves, and variable frequency drives in process automation, machine building, and test stand applications. Its high resolution and deterministic communication ensure accurate and synchronized analog signal generation.
