Beckhoff EL4112 Analog Input Terminal Module 0-10 V

Beckhoff EL4112 is a two-channel EtherCAT analog output terminal that provides precise current outputs for automation systems. Each channel delivers 0–20 mA with 16-bit resolution, enabling fine control of actuators and analog devices. As part of Beckhoff's EL41xx family, the module is designed for mounting on an EtherCAT fieldbus and requires an external 24 V power supply for the output stage; per-channel load must be less than 500 Ω for reliable operation. The EL4112-0010 variant offers a bipolar range of −10 to +10 mA for applications needing bidirectional current signaling. Typical applications include driving current-loop sensors, control valves, and other process controls where a stable current source is preferred over a voltage output. This module integrates with Beckhoff EtherCAT systems and TwinCAT software for configuration and monitoring in automation cells and machine control panels.
