Description

Integrating electronic motor protection directly into the modular I/O system, the BECKHOFF KL8001 operates as an intelligent power terminal interface designed specifically for Siemens Sirius 3R contactors (switch size S00, Type 3RT 10 1). This integration allows direct connection and control of up to ten power terminals (at a typical current consumption of 140 mA per contactor) while transmitting comprehensive diagnostics back to the K-bus.

The module facilitates precise measurement of critical electrical parameters including operational current, voltage, and power. It features adjustable nominal current settings ranging from 0.9 A to 9.9 A and selectable tripping classes (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30) to protect machinery against overload conditions. Connection to the primary fieldbus system is completed through the KL9060 adapter terminal, ensuring seamless integration into PLC control architectures.

Features

  • Direct integration with Siemens Sirius 3R (size S00) contactor series.
  • Configurable tripping classes ranging from Class 5 to Class 30.
  • Real-time monitoring of current, voltage, and power parameters.
  • Flexible parameterization via KS2000 software, fieldbus control, or manual settings.
  • High short-circuit resistance up to 5 kA conforming to EN 60947-4-1.
  • Robust K-bus electrical isolation protecting controller electronics.

Applications

  • Motor control centers (MCC) in process industries.
  • Automated conveyor lines and material handling systems.
  • Pumping stations and industrial ventilation control.
  • Heavy machinery manufacturing and assembly lines.
