The EL1808 digital input terminal acquires the binary 24 V control

signals from the process level and transmits them, in an electrically

isolated form, to the higher-level automation unit. The EtherCAT

Terminal contains eight channels, consisting of signal input and 24

V DC, whose signal state is indicated by LEDs.

The power contacts are connected through. With the EL1808. the

reference ground for all inputs is the 0 V power contact.

Special features:

• input specification type 1/3

• no bouncing due to mechanical switches thanks to 3 ms input filter

• tool-free connection by direct plug-in technique for solid wire conductors

• increased packing density with 16 connection points in the housing of

a 12 mm terminal block
