Product Description

Pepperl+Fuchs KFD2-SH-EX1.T.OP 70100833

The Pepperl+Fuchs KFD2-SH-EX1.T.OP is a high-integrity, 1-channel isolated barrier designed for intrinsically safe applications. It serves as a switch amplifier, safely transferring digital signals from NAMUR sensors or mechanical contacts located in hazardous areas to control systems in safe areas. This device features a passive transistor output and integrated line fault detection (LFD) to monitor for short-circuits or lead breakages in the field circuit, ensuring system reliability. With a SIL 2 rating according to IEC 61508, it is suitable for use in safety-instrumented systems. The unit is easily mounted on a 35 mm DIN rail and can be powered via the Power Rail system for simplified wiring and installation.
