Product Description:

The Beckhoff KL2408 is a digital output terminal with 8 channels that are made for use in industrial automation. The terminal is made by Beckhoff, a company known for making reliable automation technology. The terminal controls digital signals and outputs very precisely and effectively. Because it works reliably, it can be used in a wide range of technical systems that need to control output.

The KL2408 digital output terminal has eight outputs, and each one can handle up to 0.5 A per channel. The outlets are protected against short-circuiting, that makes them more reliable in case of overload. The load and power connectors consistently consume 60 mA of current. The K-bus continuously draws 18 mA of current. The terminal has reverse voltage safety that keeps it from breaking if the wiring is done wrong. The internal parts are well protected by the 500 V electrical separation between the K-bus and the field potential. The short-circuit current stays below 2 A, that keeps the output connections safe from too much current. The device also meets the standards for vibration and shock protection EN 60068-2-6 and EN 60068-2-27, that means it will work well even when it's under a lot of physical stress.

The Beckhoff KL2408 is about 70 grams heavy and can work in places with up to 95% relative humidity that doesn't condense. Each channel has a breaking energy of less than 150 mJ, which makes the output terminals last longer. This item is great for industrial automation systems that need reliable digital signal control and security against short circuits and overloads. We ship all our products worldwide and back them up with a one-year replacement warranty to ensure customers are happy.

Frequently Asked Questions about KL2408:

Q: Does the Beckhoff KL2408 offer electrical isolation protection?

A: Yes, the KL2408 provides 500 V electrical isolation between K-bus and field potential. This helps protect internal components from electrical interference.

Q: Why do the outputs on Beckhoff KL2408 have short-circuit proofing?

A: The short-circuit proof outputs on the KL2408 prevent overload damage. This enhances the lifespan of the terminal during operation.

Q: How much current can Beckhoff KL2408 outputs handle?

A: The KL2408 outputs can handle a maximum current of 0.5 A per channel. This ensures optimal control for connected devices.

Q: Do the Beckhoff KL2408 outputs have breaking energy limits?

A: Yes, the KL2408 limits breaking energy to less than 150 mJ per channel. This prevents damage during rapid load changes.

Q: How much current does Beckhoff KL2408 consume from K-bus?

A: The KL2408 consumes a typical 18 mA from the K-bus. This low consumption ensures efficient power use in connected systems.
