Product Description:
The KS1408 is from KS Digital Input Module series developed by Beckhoff for industrial control applications. It offers 8 digital input channels for signal acquisition within automated control environments.
The KS1408 module supports 24 V DC nominal voltage with a tolerance range of -15% to +20%. Its input signals are detected accurately within a 0 range of -3 to +5 volts. For a logical 1 the module registers voltages ranging from 11 to 30 volts. It uses 1-wire connection technology which ensures reduced wiring complexity and faster installation in automation panels for simplified wiring in compact control systems. The integrated input filter has a typical response time of 3.0 milliseconds. Each input draws a typical current of 3 mA during standard operation minimize power draw while maintaining accurate signal capture. The KS1408 module features a process image bit width of 8 inputs which is mapped directly into control systems. Its current consumption from the K-bus is typically 5 mA during standard operating conditions. The protection class is IP20 suitable for installation in dry and controlled industrial panels. Its humidity tolerance is up to 95% relative humidity which ensures performance in moisture prone areas. The Beckhoff ensures signal integrity and power efficiency with its low input current design.
The KS1408 module has a compact size of 15 mm by 100 mm by 70 mm which allows dense installation in control cabinets with space constraints. It is designed to operate stably within automated systems that require reliable digital input signals. The operating temperature range of the input module is -25°C to +60°C for reliable function in harsh conditions. Its power contact consumption is low with a typical draw of 2 mA for efficient performance.
