Product Description

The Beckhoff BK9105 is an EtherNet/IP Bus Coupler designed to integrate modular electronic terminal blocks with EtherNet/IP networks. Manufactured by Beckhoff, a renowned provider of industrial automation systems, the BK9105 streamlines the connection of various terminals to a network, to support up to 64 terminals, and offers the flexibility required for complex automation tasks.

The BK9105 Bus Coupler supports data transfer rates of 10 and 100 Mbit/s and features two RJ45 ports for seamless line or star topology connections. The Bus coupler for EtherNet/IP can manage up to 492 bytes of input and output data to make it suitable for both digital and analog signals. With support for 3,936 digital signals and 122 analog signals, the Beckhoff coupler can handle extensive I/O requirements. The power supply operates on 24 V DC, with a maximum K-bus current of 1750 mA, and the power contacts can handle up to 10 A. The coupler allows cascading of up to 20 units, to ensure that it can cover distances of up to 2 km. The bus coupler also automatically recognizes connected terminals, to simplify the setup and configuration process.

The BK9105 EtherNet/IP Bus coupler is configured via KS2000 software or a compatible controller like TwinCAT, to allow flexible and efficient setup. The IP Bus coupler operates in temperatures ranging from -25 degrees C to +60 degrees C and provides reliability in varying conditions. The Bus coupler also adheres to EMC standards for immunity and emissions, to offer robust protection. The Beckhoff ensures high-quality performance with electrical isolation rated at 500 V and compliance with EN standards for vibration and shock resistance. Our items come with a replacement warranty and can be shipped worldwide.
