The EtherCAT Terminal system has proven successful over a period of many years in automation applications where a temperature range of 0…55 °C is sufficient. For requirements beyond that, the operating temperature range of selected EtherCAT Terminals and Couplers has been extended to -25…+60 °C. The storage temperature of these ET components (Extended Temperature Range) has also been adapted and is now -40…+85 °C. The exact definition of the operating conditions in temperature ranges outside 0…55 °C, any installation requirements that possibly deviate from the standard and, if applicable, deviating technical data can be found in the EtherCAT Terminal documentation.
The following EtherCAT Terminals represent a selection of the products that are suitable for the extended temperature range. The extension of the temperature range is marked accordingly on the data sheet and is also available for any variants with a pluggable wiring level (ESxxxx).
