Product Description:
The KL1232 Input Terminal is made for industrial automation tasks. It is made by Beckhoff with a focus on efficiency and performance. It is perfect for industrial connection systems that require stable power inputs.
The KL1232 input terminal has an input filter of 0.2 ms which represents a filtering delay of 0.2 milliseconds to debounce or smooth out noisy signals. The terminal meets electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards for electrostatic discharge (ESD) and electrical bursts. The module each input typically draws about 5 milliamperes when activated. It communicates with the controller using 2 input bits in the process image (memory map) which corresponds to the 2 physical input channels. For vibration and shock it complies with IEC 68-2-6 / IEC 68-2-27 which makes it suitable to operate in environments with the presence of mechanical stress. The module has two digital input channels and each one can independently read a binary signal (on/off). An input is recognized as "ON" (logic high) if the voltage is between 15 and 30 volts and it weights around 55 grams which helps in mounting without heavy duty supports. If the voltage is within -3 V ... 5 V the input is recognized as OFF which includes a slight tolerance for negative voltages.
The KL Analog Input Modules series module can be stored safely in environments ranging from cold to quite hot which is helpful for logistics and warehousing. It can extend short pulses to a set length (10, 20 or 100 milliseconds) which ensures that brief signals are long enough to be detected reliably by slower systems. The module provides flexibility in mounting within control cabinets. and it can be installed in any orientation.
Frequently Asked Questions about KL1232:
Q: How does the 0.2 ms input filter improve signal reliability in the KL1232 module?
A: The filter helps eliminate noise and fast transients, ensuring only valid signals are processed. This improves accuracy in high-interference environments.
Q: Why is 500 V electrical isolation important in the KL1232 Input Terminal?
A: It protects the system by separating the control and field sides, reducing damage risk. This makes the KL1232 ideal for high-reliability environments.
Q: What advantage does the pulse extension feature offer in signal processing?
A: It ensures even very short pulses are captured by slower control systems. This prevents missed inputs during high-speed operations.
Q: How does IP20 protection affect where KL1232 can be installed?
A: IP20 allows installation in enclosed, dry cabinets but not in wet or dusty environments. It ensures safe operation under standard industrial conditions.
Q: Can KL1232 be mounted vertically or horizontally without performance loss?
A: Yes, the variable installation position allows mounting flexibility. This is helpful in compact or space-constrained control cabinets.
