Bernecker Rainer ECPA42-0 Analog Output Module

Bernecker & Rainer ECPA42-0 is a four-channel analog output module for B&R MULTI base racks (slot 0–15). Each channel provides a bipolar ±10 V output with a maximum load of 560 Ω per channel and an 11-bit resolution (signed). The module is CE-certified and belongs to the PA42 family of analog outputs, designed for precise voltage generation in process automation and motion control applications. With typical power consumption of 1.7 W at +15 V and 0.5 W at +8 V, the ECPA42-0 supports compact, energy-efficient wiring in multi-channel installations. It is intended for use when four independent bipolar analog outputs are needed in a single module, enabling generation of reference signals for drives, actuators, valves, or test-rig instrumentation within a B&R MULTI-based control system. The module's integration in slot-capable base racks allows scalable expansion across projects and simplifies wiring in distributed automation architectures.
