The IP 67-rated EP4374 EtherCat Box is a machine-mountable I/O device that combines two analog inputs and two analog outputs into one device.
The input and output channels can be parameterized independent of each other for the standard signals 0...10 V, ±10 V, 0...20mA and 4...20mA. With the combination of parameterizable inputs and outputs in a single rugged housing, EP4374 users benefit from increased flexibility. Each channel is configurable individually for current or voltage measurement or output. The resolution for the current and voltage signals is 16 bit (signed). The EP4374-0002 module has a direct EtherCat connection, so that the high performance of 100Mbit/s Industrial Ethernet is retained right down to each IP 67 box. Measuring 126x30x26.5mm the EP4374 I/O is well-suited for applications in confined spaces.
George Reed, with the help of Factory Technologies, was looking to further automate the processes at its quarries and make Ignition an organization-wide standard.
Goodnight Midstream chose Ignition because it could fulfill several requirements: data mining and business intelligence work on the system backend; powerful Linux-based edge deployments...
