Product Description:

The KL6781 Analog Input Moduleis manufactured by Beckhoff. It provides accurate and reliable data transfer in industrial automation systems. This module is designed for use with a 24 VDC power input that operates within a voltage range of -15% to +20%. It is designed for efficiency and is ideal for applications requiring precise analog input handling and reliable data communication.

The KL6781 Analog Input Module is capable of handling a wide range of environmental conditions with a permissible ambient temperature range from 0 °C to +55 °C during operation and -25 °C to +85 °C during storage. The module supports master-slave communication via polling using M-Bus properties for data transfer. Its data transfer rate ranges from 300 to 9600 baud with the default set at 2400 baud. It is compatible with up to 40 M-Bus devices each with standard loads of 1.5 mA. The device also offers 500 V electrical isolation between the K-Bus and M-Bus. The analog module ensures high reliability with its short-circuit strength and robust EMC immunity, complying with EN 61000-6-2 and EN 61000-6-4 standards. The module's vibration and shock resistance meet the standards of EN 60068-2-6 and EN 60068-2-27.

The KL6781 Analog Input Module operates with a maximum current consumption of 250 mA from the power contacts and 65 mA typically from the K-Bus. The module is mounted on a 35 mm rail in accordance with EN 60715 standards. The module's flexible installation options, robust build quality and ease of integration make it a valuable component in industrial automation systems. Its protection class is IP20 ensures reliable performance under most industrial conditions.
