Emerson KL3104X1-BA1 I.S. DO 45 mA CHARM

Description

The Emerson KL3101X1-BA1 (often identified in the S-series catalog as the KL3104X1-BA1) is an Intrinsically Safe (I.S.) Discrete Output Characterization Module (CHARM) designed for the DeltaV S-series platform. This module provides a controlled 45 mA output to drive field devices such as solenoid valves or indicators located in hazardous areas.

• Terminal Keying: 3E position for correct module-to-base alignment

Features

• Integrated Intrinsic Safety: Directly supports hazardous area field devices by limiting energy to safe levels, significantly reducing cabinet wiring complexity.
• Electronic Marshalling Efficiency: Part of the DeltaV S-series ecosystem, allowing for channel-by-channel I/O configuration and reducing overall hardware footprint.
• Extreme Environmental Protection: Features G3 conformal coating to resist the effects of corrosive gases and airborne contaminants in industrial sites.
  
• High Output Capacity: Provides a steady 45 mA signal, sufficient to power a wide range of low-power I.S. solenoids and field-mounted visual alarms.
• Mechanical Coding: Uses a specific 3E terminal block keying system to prevent the insertion of non-I.S. modules into safety-critical slots.
  
• Live Maintenance: Supports hot-swapping functionality, enabling technicians to replace modules without powering down the entire I/O carrier.
