KL3202-0000 by Beckhoff

The Beckhoff KL3202-0000 bus terminal from the KL Analog Input Modules series is engineered for precise temperature measurement and control. Designed to support resistance temperature detectors such as Pt100 sensors, it provides reliable data for industrial automation applications. Featuring a 2-channel input with 16-bit resolution and a conversion time of approximately 250 ms, this terminal delivers consistent and accurate temperature readings, making it ideal for environments where rapid response and precision are paramount.

The device is characterized by detailed technical specifications that underscore its industrial performance. It operates on a flexible 2- or 3-wire connection method (defaulting to 3-wire) and maintains a measurement error of less than 1°C. With a typical K-bus current consumption of 60 mA and a measuring current of around 0.5 mA, the terminal is designed for low power use while upholding high accuracy. The input supports a wide measuring range, spanning from -200°C to +850°C with Pt sensors and -60°C to +250°C using Ni sensors. Compliance with standards such as EN 61000-6-2/EN 61000-6-4 reinforces its resilience against electromagnetic disturbances.

Additional features further enhance its utility in challenging industrial environments. The terminal’s design eliminates the need for power contacts and simplifies system integration, as it supports dual data input and control with 2 x 16-bit configurations. Its rugged construction, including conformity to EN 60068-2-6/EN 60068-2-27 for vibration and shock resistance, ensures long-term durability. With an operating temperature range from -25°C to +60°C and a storage range from -40°C to +85°C, along with an IP20 protection rating, the KL3202-0000 is a reliable choice for demanding industrial applications where safety and performance are critical.
