• Beckhoff Traceability Number, or BTN for short (as a serial number it clearly identifies each terminal) Date code The date code is an eight-digit number given by Beckhoff and printed on the ELX terminal. The date code indicates the build version in the delivery state and thus identifies an entire production batch, but does not distinguish between the terminals in a batch.
Foreword Beckhoff Traceability Number (BTN) In addition, each ELX terminal has a unique Beckhoff Traceability Number (BTN). Ex marking The Ex marking can be found at the top left on the terminal: II 3 (1) G Ex ec [ia Ga] IIC T4 Gc...
Fig. 4: ELX2002 - Two channel, digital output terminal, 24 V , 45 mA, Ex i The ELX2002 digital output terminal enables the direct connection of intrinsically safe actuators located in hazardous areas classified Zone 0/20 or 1/21. The ELX2002 supplies an output voltage of 24 V and a maximum output current of 45 mA per channel, total current is 80 mA.
Zone 0/20 or 1/21. The ELX2008 supplies an output voltage of 24 V and a maximum output current of 30 mA per channel. The signal state of the EtherCAT Terminal is indicated by light emitting diodes. ELX2002 and ELX2008 Version: 2.0.0...

The ELX components may only be used in accordance with the ATEX directive and the IECEx scheme! The ELX terminals extend the field of application of the Beckhoff bus terminal system with functions for integrating intrinsically safe field devices from hazardous areas. The intended field of application is data acquisition and control tasks in discrete and process engineering automation, taking into account explosion protection requirements.
Special conditions of use for ELX terminals WARNING Observe the special conditions of use for the intended use of Beckhoff ELX terminals in potentially explosive areas (ATEX directive 2014/34/EU)! • The certified components are to be installed in a suitable housing that guarantees an ingress protection of at least IP54 in accordance with EN 60079-0 and EN 60529! The prescribed environmental conditions...

• The last terminal of each ELX segment is to be covered by an ELX9012 bus end cover, unless two ELX9410 power supply terminals are installed in direct succession for continuing the same terminal seg- ment with standard Beckhoff EtherCAT terminals (e.g. EL/ES/EK)! Examples for the arrangement of ELX terminals Fig. 6: Valid arrangement of the ELX terminals (right terminal block).
Fig. 11: Invalid arrangement - terminal that does not belong to the ELX series within the ELX terminal segment. Fig. 12: Invalid arrangement - second ELX9560 power supply terminal within the ELX terminal segment without an upstream ELX9410. ELX2002 and ELX2008 Version: 2.0.0...
ELX9560 power supply terminal in accordance with the specified technical data. If required, an additional power supply terminal ELX9560 with an upstream ELX9410 connected (see mounting examples) must be installed or a completely new terminal block must be assembled.

• besides the bus terminal block: 20 mm (recommended) Fig. 14: Installation position and minimum distances WARNING Observe the minimum separation distances according to IEC 60079-14! Observe the prescribed minimum separation distances between intrinsically safe and non-intrinsically safe circuits according to IEC 60079-14. ELX2002 and ELX2008 Version: 2.0.0...
To mount the mounting rails with a height of 7.5 mm under the terminals and couplers, you should use flat mounting connections (e.g. countersunk screws or blind rivets). Version: 2.0.0 ELX2002 and ELX2008...
During the design of a bus terminal block, the pin assignment of the individual Bus Terminals must be taken account of, since some types (e.g. analog Bus Terminals or digital 4-channel Bus Termi- nals) do not or not fully loop through the power contacts. ELX2002 and ELX2008 Version: 2.0.0...
Ultrasonically "bonded" (ultrasonically welded) conductors Ultrasonically “bonded" conductors It is also possible to connect the Standard and High Density Terminals with ultrasonically "bonded" (ultrasonically welded) conductors. In this case, please note the tables concerning the wire-size width below! Version: 2.0.0 ELX2002 and ELX2008...
8 ... 9 mm 8 ... 9 mm NOTE Maximum screwdriver width for ELX9560 Use a screwdriver with a maximum width of 2 mm to wire the ELX9560 power supply terminal. Wider screwdrivers can damage the terminal points. ELX2002 and ELX2008 Version: 2.0.0...
In any case, make sure that the galvanic isolation made by the ELX9560 between the 24 V Ex busbar (power contacts +24 V Ex and 0 V Ex) and other system potentials (if applicable also functional or protec- tive earths) is not removed. Version: 2.0.0 ELX2002 and ELX2008...
