BECKHOFF KL2761 Bus Terminal System Dimmer Module

Description

Realize stable, fieldbus-controlled power regulation with the Beckhoff KL2761 1-channel universal dimmer terminal. Engineered for integration within the standard Beckhoff K-bus terminal assembly, this module regulates the power of lighting devices and other AC loads up to 600 VA. Utilizing automatic load detection, it handles ohmic, inductive, and capacitive loads via advanced phase control mechanisms. This terminal enables precise, system-level brightness and power adjustments directly from the master controller, offering scalable distributed automation capabilities for diverse environmental and process control applications.

Features

• Single-channel AC dimmer with integrated fieldbus functionality.
• Automatic load type detection (handles ohmic, inductive, capacitive, and lamp loads).
• Four-wire connection technology for secure, direct field wiring.
• High-resolution control adjustable to 1% intervals.
• Robust electrical isolation between K-bus logic and field voltage levels.
• Compact 12 mm housing width maximizing DIN rail space efficiency.
• Fully compatible with standard KSxxxx series pluggable wiring systems.

Applications

• Commercial and industrial building automation systems.
• Integrated lighting and stage illumination controls.
• Variable power regulation for process heating and small AC motor controls.
• Infrastructure power management and distribution panels.

Installation Guidelines

• Mounting: Snap directly onto standard 35 mm DIN rail (EN 60715) with secure physical latching.
• Wiring: Isolate all field power prior to wiring. Utilize the 4-wire terminal connections. For pluggable terminal blocks, use KSxxxx compatible modules.
• Thermal Management: Maintain clean convective airflow around the unit. Do not exceed the operating range of 0 to +55 degC.
• Grounding: Ensure the mounting rail is properly grounded to ensure correct EMI protection performance.
