The QEC-RXXA series is an EtherCAT Analog Input/Output Converter. It supports up to 8-slot Analog channels, and customers can customize the Analog Input and Output configuration. This series has passed the verification of conformance testing tools.
The Analog input channels of the QEC-RXXA series offer multiple voltage ranges, both bipolar and unipolar, to accommodate various sensors and transducers. It features a constant resistive input impedance of at least 1 MΩ and is equipped with robust overvoltage protection up to ±20 V, ensuring durability and stability in harsh industrial settings. The high-resolution 16-bit ADC guarantees precision data acquisition with an accuracy of ±0.2% Full Scale Range (FSR) at 25°C. Conversely, the Analog output channels of the QEC-RXXA series provide flexible signal conditioning capabilities with output current ranging from 0 mA to 24 mA and output voltage settings up to ±12 V. These outputs are characterized by a 16-bit resolution and an impressive accuracy of ±0.1% FSR at 25°C, suitable for controlling actuators or interfacing with other control systems.
The QEC-RXXA series module supports firmware updates via the File over EtherCAT (FoE) protocol and includes dual RJ-45 ports to facilitate EtherCAT cable redundancy, enhancing network reliability. Diagnostic and operational statuses are easily visible through LED indicators, simplifying troubleshooting and system checks.
The module reduces infrastructure and operational costs by being designed for flexibility in installation and connectivity. It supports various network topologies, such as star, line, or ring, ensuring adaptability to specific project requirements. Measuring 107.45 x 66 x 30 mm, the QEC-RXXA series operates efficiently within a standard temperature range of -20 to +70°C, with options available for extended temperature conditions. The device can be easily mounted using a Din Rail kit that simplifies installation and maintenance.
The QEC-RXXA44S from ICOP is an exemplary solution for industries seeking reliable and precise analog input and output functionality within their EtherCAT networks.
