Introduction

EtherCAT Box with 2 x 3G accelerometers
The EP3752-0000 EtherCAT Box has two internal 3-axis accelerometers with 10-bit resolution and a
selectable measuring range of ±2 g, ±4 g, ±8 g and ±16 g. The maximum sampling rate is 5 kHz. The
measured values can be digitally filtered. Without filters the box operates cycle-synchronously.
Possible applications include the recording of vibrations and shocks/oscillations, but inclination
measurements in all three axes are also possible.
Through the measurement using sensors offset by 90°, the controller can carry out a plausibility check of the
data. Extended integrated filter functions enable the pre-processing and scaling of the acquired data in order
to filter out faults and relieve the controller.
