Connection technology
All modules of the XTS Hygienic have variable interfaces. Mounted
on these interfaces are either covers with a connection card for elec-
trically connecting modules together or covers with a supply.
The covers with supply are delivered with an integrated and pre-as-
sembled hybrid cable that combines the power cable with the Ether-
CAT cable. The end of the EtherCAT cable has an RJ45 connector
with the TSB568A configuration. The end of the power cable is pre-
assembled with ferrules. Mating connectors are not included in the
scope of supply.
8.1.1
Cables
Beckhoff cables have been tested with regard to the materials,
shielding and connection method used. They ensure proper func-
tioning and compliance with statutory regulations such as EMC and
UL. The use of other cables may lead to unexpected interference
and invalidate the warranty.
For proper application and assembly we recommend:
• Wiring in accordance with applicable regulations and standards
• Use the pre-assembled and shielded Beckhoff cables for power
and EtherCAT connections
Laying
In the case of the covers with supply, an 8 m-long black/yellow hy-
brid cable is integrated inside a 6 m-long blue protective sleeve.
This hybrid cable consists of a power cable and an EtherCAT cable:
• Power cable: 3G 4 mm
2
+ 2 x 1.5 mm
2
• white EtherCAT cable with RJ45 connection
You may shorten the sleeve and the power cable, but not the white
EtherCAT cable.
Lay the hybrid cable in such a way that it is protected against exter-
nal damage. Make sure that the cables lie in a position where they
are protected against moving machine parts and their acceleration
forces. Beckhoff recommends "fixed installation", because the cable
is not suitable for drag chains.
Observe the specified bending radii for a permanently laid or occa-
sionally moved hybrid cable with protective sleeve in the table:
