The Beckhoff KL3062 Bus Terminal is a versatile analogue input module designed to deliver precise voltage measurement within distributed control and automation systems. Featuring two independent channels, it allows integrators and engineers to acquire multiple signals simultaneously, making it a cost-effective and space-saving choice for applications where reliable analogue data acquisition is critical.

Operating within a voltage range of 0…10 V, the KL3062 is compatible with a wide array of industrial sensors and transducers, such as pressure sensors, potentiometers, and process monitoring equipment. Its single-ended technology enables straightforward wiring while maintaining dependable performance in typical automation environments. Each channel incorporates an internal resistance of more than 200 kΩ, ensuring minimal load on the connected signal sources and preserving signal integrity.

The terminal’s 12-bit resolution provides fine measurement granularity, striking a balance between precision and processing efficiency. Combined with a conversion time of approximately 2 ms, it ensures real-time responsiveness in data acquisition, allowing automation systems to capture fast-changing signals without significant lag. This makes the KL3062 well-suited for monitoring dynamic processes, controlling machinery, and supporting closed-loop control systems where timing and accuracy are vital.

One of the standout advantages of the KL3062 is its integration with the K-bus system, which not only simplifies wiring but also eliminates the need for a separate power supply for the module itself. The module is powered directly via the bus, reducing installation complexity and ensuring consistent operation within the Beckhoff modular I/O environment. Its compact design allows for high-density installations, enabling system builders to scale solutions efficiently without sacrificing valuable cabinet space.

As part of Beckhoff’s modular terminal line-up, the KL3062 benefits from seamless compatibility with the company’s extensive range of controllers, software tools, and fieldbus couplers. This modularity makes it easy to adapt to diverse project requirements, whether for small-scale machinery or large distributed control systems.

By delivering reliable analogue input capability in a compact, easy-to-integrate format, the KL3062 helps engineers streamline automation projects while maintaining accuracy, speed, and long-term dependability. Whether used for monitoring process variables, controlling electromechanical systems, or integrating sensor data into advanced automation platforms, the KL3062 provides an ideal balance of precision, performance, and flexibility.
