Product Description

This efficient KL3012-0011 by Beckhoff is a 2-channel analog input terminal bus designed for industrial automation applications. Beckhoff is a famous equipment design company with a focus on research and development and it continues to expand its technology in many other domains like machine control, plc control and IoT for ensuring solutions for industrial needs.

This KL3012-0011 terminal bus mainly supports current signals ranging from 0 to 20 mA and utilizes differential input technology. The module features a 12-bit resolution by ensuring precise data with a measurement of tolerance ±0.3% relative to the full-scale value. The internal resistance is 80 ohms and a diode voltage of 0.7 V and the common-mode voltage can handle up to 35 V by making it suitable for a wide range of industrial environments. This KL series terminal bus has a conversion time of around 2 milliseconds. Electrical isolation between the K-bus and signal voltage is rated at 500 V by providing protection against electrical damages up to 35 V DC. This ensures the safety of the system components. The terminal is powered via the K-bus by consuming approximately 60 mA during operation and has no power contacts. This feature helps in making it a low-power consumption device.

The KL3012-0011 terminal bus is designed for easy installation on a 35 mm DIN rail mounting type and its housing is constructed from durable polycarbonate. It features a compact form factor with simple dimensions of 12 mm (W) x 100 mm (H) x 68 mm (D). The terminal also has IP20 protection to safe the device. Wiring is included by spring using a screwdriver by making connections straightforward with various conductor types. It has gained many certifications including CE, UL, ATEX and IECEx ensuring compliance with international safety.
