With four differential analog inputs, it allows users to select between voltage (±10 V) and current (0/4…20 mA) measurements on a per-channel basis, providing flexibility for mixed-signal applications. Its 16-bit resolution combined with a fast 100 µs conversion time makes it well-suited for dynamic processes requiring high accuracy. Featuring M12 and M8 industrial-grade connectors, 500 V electrical isolation, and a robust PA6 housing, the EP3174-0002 is engineered for long-term durability in demanding environments. Key Features: Four Differential Inputs: Provides four independent analog inputs for precise measurement of voltage or current signals. Multi-Function Capability: Each channel can be parameterized individually for ±10 V or 0/4…20 mA input, offering high application flexibility. High-Speed Conversion: Delivers a rapid conversion time of ~100 µs, ensuring fast response in dynamic control processes. 16-Bit Resolution: Enables fine measurement detail, including signed values, for greater precision in industrial applications. Configurable Input Filters: Adjustable filters allow optimization of signal stability versus speed, with a limit frequency of 5 kHz. Robust Electrical Design: Provides up to 500 V isolation and supports common-mode voltages up to 35 V for safe operation. Industrial-Grade Connectivity: Equipped with M12 input connectors and M8 EtherCAT bus interfaces for reliable field installation. Rugged Housing: Built from durable PA6 polyamide, with compact dimensions and simple installation using M3 fixing holes. Low Power Consumption: Operates from 24 V DC with only 120 mA current draw, ensuring efficiency in distributed systems. Wide Environmental Tolerance: Works in temperatures from -25 °C to +60 °C and withstands storage down to -40 °C. The EP3174-0002 delivers the reliability and precision required for flexible analog signal acquisition in distributed EtherCAT automation networks.
