Pepperl & Fuchs – KFD0‑CS‑Ex1.51P (72147) – 1‑Channel Intrinsically-Safe 4–20 mA
The Pepperl & Fuchs KFD0‑CS‑Ex1.51P is a loop-powered, single-channel isolated barrier designed for intrinsically-safe 4–20 mA applications. It transfers signals from hazardous-area sensors—such as fire alarms or temperature probes—to safe-area instrumentation while providing transmitter power, reverse-polarity protection, and SIL 2 safety integrity. Ideal for reliable signal conditioning in Zone 0–2 / Div 1–2 environments.
