PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
PEPPERL & FUCHS 305985 - K-System 2-Channel Switch Repeater Intrinsic Safety Barrier
This K-System intrinsic safety barrier, identified as KFD2-SR2-EX1.W, provides galvanic isolation and signal conditioning for two NAMUR sensors or mechanical contacts located in hazardous areas. It converts intrinsically safe input signals into two independent relay outputs for control systems in the safe area, incorporating line fault detection for enhanced system integrity.
