Processing analog standard signals in the range from 0 to 20 mA, the BECKHOFF KS3012 Bus Terminal provides reliable, galvanically isolated data acquisition directly to the K-bus system. Featuring two differential inputs with a 12-bit resolution, this unit offers high-accuracy signal conversion within approximately 2 ms. The pluggable wiring level characteristic of the KS series allows system operators to quickly exchange the terminal block during maintenance without disturbing existing field wiring connections.
This module operates with an internal resistance of 80 Ohms combined with a diode voltage of 0.7 V, supporting a maximum common-mode voltage of 35 V. It is designed to mount seamlessly onto standard 35 mm DIN rails, offering space-saving integration inside compact control cabinets.

Mount the KS3012 terminal directly onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail (EN 60715) ensuring the locking mechanism clicks securely. When wiring, insert a small flat-head screwdriver into the spring release slot to open the clamp, insert the stripped wire (9 to 10 mm), and remove the tool to secure the connection. Ensure signal wiring is physically separated from high-power distribution lines to minimize electromagnetic interference.
