Product Description
The KFD2-STC5-Ex1.20 (Pepperl+Fuchs) is an intrinsically safe isolated barrier / SMART transmitter power supply used in industrial automation to safely transfer 4–20 mA analog signals with HART communication between hazardous and safe areas.
It is commonly installed in DCS/PLC systems, process plants, oil & gas industries, chemical plants, and instrumentation panels where explosion protection and signal isolation are required.
Key Features
• 1-channel intrinsic safety barrier
• Safe isolation between hazardous and non-hazardous areas
• Supports SMART transmitters (HART, BRAIN, Foxboro protocols)
• 4–20 mA analog signal transmission with high accuracy
• Signal splitter function (1 input → 2 outputs in some variants)
• Galvanic isolation for input, output, and power supply
• 24 V DC power supply via power rail or terminals
• SIL 2 (IEC 61508) functional safety compliance
• DIN-rail mount compact industrial design
• Integrated HART communication support with test sockets
• High reliability for continuous industrial operation
