Product Description

The KL5121 is a high-performance incremental encoder interface by the renowned company Beckhoff, based on the popular KL Analog Input Series. The module contains in total 1 incremental encoder channel and 4 outputs. It can be applied almost everywhere where automation is represented. In order to connect the encoder, it is very easy by using terminals for A, B, latch, and gate by simply integrating into existing systems.

The module KL5121 can go with excellent power supply in a range of -15%/+20% and has been designed to run on a stable 24 V DC. It makes an evaluation of encoder signals utilizing the 16-bit binary counter. Utilizing 4-fold evaluation, this can reach an impressive limit frequency of 1 million increments/s. Such performance guarantees high precision position tracking and rapid motion control. This meets the expectations of the most contemporary demands of industrial automation. The KL5121 also provides really good output capabilities : 24 V/0.5 A. The switching times are very short, and the response time is < 100 µs, so that control actions can be performed very fast. Current consumption from power contacts is typically 30 mA + load, while the K-bus needs about 60 mA, which means that power resources are used efficiently.

Such a process image is built with the help of bit width that contains in itself 2 x 16-bit data and 2 x 8-bit control/status, solely for handling comprehensive data. It operates between the temperature range of 0…+55°C and it can store up to a range of -25 to +85°C. It also boasts of a protective rating of IP20, as well, which generally reconfirms its strength in industrial environments.
