PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
PEPPERL & FUCHS 421019 - K-System Isolated Barrier, Switch Repeater
The PEPPERL & FUCHS 421019, identified as a KFD2-SR2-EX1.W.SM, is a 2-channel isolated barrier from the K-System series. It is engineered to provide intrinsic safety for binary signals originating from hazardous areas, facilitating their transmission to safe area control systems. This device ensures galvanic isolation between input, output, and power supply, preventing energy transfer into explosive atmospheres while acting as a switch repeater for NAMUR sensors or mechanical contacts.
