As digitalization continues to take the process industry by storm, the volumes of data provided by intelligent sensors and actuators are also growing. The newly developed Ethernet-APL communication standard enables fast and seamless communication of all field device data. Beckhoff integrates the Ethernet-APL technology into its existing EtherCAT terminal portfolio on a modular basis, allowing for the flexible connection of Ethernet-APL-capable field devices.

The ELX6233 allows direct connection of Ethernet-APL-capable field devices from the hazardous areas of zones 0/20 and 1/21. The sensors are supplied in accordance with the SPAA (TS10186) port profile and integrated via PROFINET. The flexible EtherCAT system architecture and ELX portfolio allow Ethernet-APL, HART, and simple digital signals to be integrated into the same terminal segment.
