I am searching for reliable (industrial grade) drop-in-replacements for Beckhoff EJ-IOs (https://www.beckhoff.com/en-en/products/i-o/ethercat-plug-in-modules/). Drop-In in software-perspective, of course not hardware-perspective. Beckhoff has horrible lead times right now!
I only need digital input and digital outputs on 24 V level (lower level is also possible). I need IO-cycle time of about 100µS to 500µS due to detection of some fast-switching inputs. I need 32 Ins and 32 Outs. Ideally I can expand the number of IOs by some bus-module later on.
Also possible would be something similar to the EL/EK-Series from Beckhoff (din-rail IOs).
Do you have a hint for me which alternative I could use? I would like to simply switch the IO-section of my CodeSys-Project and leave the rest the same.
Thank you!
Best regards

Try searching on the websites of Schneider, Wago, ABB, Hitachi and any other brand that supports CODESYS.
If it is not a safety product, you can choose products made in China .
