Beckhoff EP3174-0002 – Overview The Beckhoff EP3174-0002 is a modular EtherCAT Box designed for analogue signal acquisition with four individually parameterisable channels. Each channel can be set to a voltage range of -10 V to +10 V or a current range of 0/4 mA to 20 mA, and all inputs are differential and isolated. This makes the module ideal for high-precision sensor integration and distributed automation installations. Key Features Four differential analog input channels Individually parameterisable ranges (-10 V…+10 V or 0/4…20 mA) 16-bit resolution for high accuracy Configurable input filter and selectable conversion times Electrical isolation between field and internal bus Compact industrial housing suited for EtherCAT Box systems Standard 24 V DC supply, supports distributed clock synchronisation Technical Specifications Part Numbers: – EP3174-0002 – EP 3174 0002 Number of Inputs: 4 (differential) Signal Types: Voltage (-10 V to +10 V) or Current (0/4 mA to 20 mA) Resolution: 16 bit (including sign) Conversion Time: ~100 µs typical Input Filter Limit Frequency: Up to ~5 kHz Nominal Supply Voltage: 24 V DC Electrical Isolation: 500 V between field and bus Operating Temperature: -25 °C … +60 °C Storage Temperature: -40 °C … +85 °C Weight: Approx. 0.165 kg Mounting: Suitable for industrial housing systems Manufacturer: Beckhoff Automation Weight: 0.10 – 0.23 kg (0.22 – 0.50 lb)Packed dimensions: 12 × 7 × 6 cm (4.7 × 2.8 × 2.4 in) Applications High-precision sensor signal acquisition in distributed automation systems Analog measurement integration in EtherCAT Box architectures Modular control cabinets requiring flexible input configuration Process monitoring and control systems with mixed voltage/current input ranges Why Choose Beckhoff EP3174-0002 Flexible signal input ranges for mixed-sensor environments High accuracy 16-bit resolution for precision measurement Differential inputs and strong isolation increase noise immunity Compact, modular form factor for distributed I/O systems Order Now The Beckhoff EP3174-0002 EtherCAT Box is available for order and ships worldwide.
