Where it sits in the control system
The EL6695 is the device-level element in a Beckhoff circuit breaker installation. It receives the field signals and control supply listed above — 24 V DC (IEC 61131-2) — and switches or conditions the load within the the rated ratings shown in the Specifications table. Wiring and protective devices are sized to those same numbers, not to a generic assumption.
Typical installations place it in distribution boards, motor protection circuits, panel feeders, where the unit is matched to the original catalog number and the enclosure provides 35 mm DIN rail (IEC 60715) support. Record the catalog number and revision from the nameplate of the installed unit before specifying a like-for-like spare.
Selection notes for Beckhoff EL6695
Beckhoff EL6695 — Industrial automation component supplied as a like-for-like replacement, selected by catalog number and published ratings. The figures below are taken from the specification table on this page for catalog number EL6695; size the surrounding wiring and upstream protection to these published ratings rather than to a generic assumption.
- Operating temperature: 0...+55 °C (IEC 60068-2-1) — Confirm the revision of the installed unit before a like-for-like replacement.
- Breaking capacity Icu/Ics: status LEDs — Use it as the reference when cross-checking a current-production equivalent.
- Humidity: 95%, no condensation — Verify it in the project documentation before confirming the order.
- Supply voltage: 24 V DC (IEC 61131-2) — Check this value against the nameplate of the installed unit before ordering.
For a discontinued unit, match function and electrical ratings rather than the label alone.
Common questions about EL6695
Q.For EL6695, what does the specification table state about mounting?
The specification table lists mounting = 35 mm DIN rail (IEC 60715) for Beckhoff EL6695. Confirm this figure against the unit currently in the panel.
Q.Which value is published under certifications for catalog number EL6695?
For EL6695, certifications is given as CE, UL, cULus. Use the value as the reference when sourcing a current-production equivalent.
Q.Before ordering EL6695, which storage temperature entry should be checked?
The storage temperature entry quoted above is -25…+85°C. Check the revision of the installed unit if the catalog number has been superseded.
Q.Can the EL6695 replace the unit currently installed in my panel?
Compare catalog number EL6695 and the ratings above with the nameplate of the installed device. A current-production equivalent is selected by function and electrical rating, not by the label alone.
Q.What should I include in an enquiry for EL6695?
Send the full catalog number EL6695, the required quantity and a photo of the nameplate. Stock, lead time and the applicable compliance documents can then be confirmed for Beckhoff EL6695.
