MSX-EC-3701

The MSX-EC-3701 EtherCAT system for inductive probes has 4 channels, 24 bits, for multiplexed acquisition of inductive sensors (half-bridge, LVDT). It is intended for use close to the measuring point in the field and therefore has numerous protective circuits, galvanic isolation and an extended operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Its metal housing corresponds to protection class IP 65. The 24 V trigger input allows the acquisition to be triggered by an external trigger source. To start the measurement, the rising or falling edge or both can be taken into account. The counter allows to define the number of edges after which the acquisition should be started.
