KL1512 | 2-Channel Up/Down Counter, 24 V DC, 1 kHz, 16 Bit
The KL1512 counts binary pulses and sends the counter state to a higher-level automation device. The signal is electrically isolated. You can set this Bus Terminal as an up or down counter with 16-bit depth. Two inputs show signal state via LEDs. The KL1512 fits simple counting tasks, such as flow meter applications.

Series Insight: KL15xx Bus Terminals
The KL15xx series handles digital counting and position tasks. These terminals use a 24 V DC field supply. They isolate signals from the K-bus. The KL1512 works with Beckhoff Bus Couplers and controllers. Engineers choose this series for flow meters, encoders, and simple pulse counting. The 16-bit depth suits low-to-medium resolution tasks. The 1 kHz limit fits slow to moderate pulse rates.

FAQ
Q: Can the KL1512 count both up and down?
A: Yes. You set the mode via the Bus Coupler or controller.
Q: What pulse rate can it handle?
A: It handles up to 1 kHz. This fits flow meters and slow encoders.
Q: Is the KL1512 isolated from the field?
A: Yes. It offers 500 V electrical isolation between K-bus and field.
Q: How do I pick the right counter terminal?
A: Check pulse rate, voltage, and bit depth. The KL1512 suits 24 V DC, 1 kHz, 16-bit tasks.
Q: Does it work with older Beckhoff systems?
A: Yes. It works with standard Bus Couplers. We also stock refurbished units for legacy racks.
Q: What if my flow meter has a low signal?
A: Check the “1” signal voltage. It must reach 15 V or higher. Use a pull-up if needed.
