ENQUIRE NOWProduct Overview
The Pepperl+Fuchs KFA5-SR2-Ex1.W is a 1-channel isolated barrier switch amplifier for 115 V AC powered installations. It reads a NAMUR sensor or dry contact located in a hazardous area and switches a relay contact output in the safe area, with reinforced galvanic isolation between input, output and supply.
The unit provides line fault detection, a reversible mode of operation selected by DIP switch, and suitability for applications up to SIL 2 to IEC/EN 61508 / IEC/EN 61511. Its intrinsically safe input is certified under ATEX and IECEx for Ex ia applications.
