Product Description
The KL3458 module is part of the KL Analog Input Series by Beckhoff and has been designed to perform complex measurement tasks with the help of eight analog inputs.
This unit is designed for processes that demand accurate current measurement within the 4 to 20mA range necessary for most industrial applications that need reliable data capture. Thanks to the K-bus, the KL3458 offers a rather elegant power integration that helps reduce the number of tracks required for wiring. The internal resistance of the module is less than 85 Ω to reduce signal loss and to provide accurate readings in the process. Each input has an analog to digital conversion time of approximately 4 milliseconds and therefore is ideal for the fast-paced industrial environment. The output resolution of the module has been set at 12 bits to allow for refined divisions in the output readings. The measurement error or uncertainty is kept below ±0.3% of the full-scale value, proving its high level of accuracy. A DC voltage of up to 30V further enhances the protection of the module against voltage fluctuations that may damage the module. The KL3458 requires a normal power of 105mA from the K-bus, which is a clear indication of its power-saving feature. In terms of data representation, each input has 16 bits in the process image, thus the total width is 128 bits for detailed process control.
The operating temperature range for the system is 0 to 55 degrees Celsius while the storage temperature ranges from -25 degrees Celsius to 85 degrees Celsius to address various environments. It provides 500 V of electrical isolation between the K-bus and signal voltage, ensuring safe and reliable signal transmission in industrial environments. This module also complies with the vibration and shock standards of EN 60068-2-6 and EN 60068-2-27 hence suitable for use in conditions subjected to vibration and shock. The protection rating is IP20 and due to its design, the appliance can be installed in different positions and ways. Purchase this product from Wake Industrial and receive a one-year warranty.
