Product Description:

The single channel analog output terminal KL4011 is designed to effectively process current signal. It belongs to the series of KL Analog Input Modules. It provides exceptional accuracy with a 12-bit resolution. It produces analog output signals between 0 and 20 mA. It incorporates a single-ended output configuration with electrical isolation rated at 500 V.

The KL4011 is manufactured by Beckhoff. It supports a maximum load capacity of less than 500 ohms. Output error is small with a variance of less than ±0.1 percent from the end value. Power is supplied via 24 V DC connections with the option of 15 V DC utilizing the KL9515 terminal. The KL4011's usual current usage is 30 mA + load on power connections. During operation the K-bus draws approximately 60 mA. Run LEDs mounted on this module offers real-time feedback on communication with the Bus Coupler. It works at a temperature between 0°C and 55°C and can be stored at temperature ranging from -25°C to +85°C safely. Solid flexible and ferrule connections are described for KL4011 wiring. It has an IP20 rating and offers variable installation placement. At 95 % relative humidity the KL4011 is reliable. ATEX II 3 G Ex ec IIC T4 Gc and IECEx Ex ec IIC T4 Gc are marking for explosion protection. The stripping lengths are 8 to 9 mm for KL designs and 9 to 10 mm for KS designs.

The Beckhoff KL4011 has a polycarbonate enclosure in both KL-12-8pin and KS-12-8pin models. Power connections guarantee dependable performance up to 10 A maximum current load. It fits in dimensions 12mm width, 100mm height and 68mm depth. The KL variant accommodates conductor cross-sections that ranges from 0.08 mm² to 2.5 mm².
