Pepperl+Fuchs KCD2-SCD-1.SP Single Channel Explosion Proof Isolation Barrier
Product Overview

The KCD2-SCD-1.SP is a high-performance 1-channel SMART current driver from Pepperl+Fuchs K-System, specifically engineered to repeat 4...20 mA control signals from a PLC, DCS, or other control system to drive SMART I/P converters, electrical valves, and valve positioners located on the field side.

This signal conditioner provides complete galvanic isolation between field circuits and control circuits while supporting bidirectional HART communication for intelligent field device configuration and diagnostics. The device features spring terminals with push-in connection technology for fast, vibration-proof wiring.

With a compact 12.5 mm width and SIL 2 certification acc. to IEC/EN 61508, the KCD2-SCD-1.SP is the ideal solution for driving analog output loads in process control, industrial automation, and safety-related applications.

Key Features & Benefits
  • SMART Current Driver: Repeats 4...20 mA input signals from control systems to drive SMART I/P converters, valves, and positioners on the field side — ideal for analog output applications
  • Bidirectional HART Communication: Digital signals can be superimposed on analog values at the field side or control side and transferred bi-directionally — supports HART communicator connection via integrated test sockets
  • High Load Drive Capability: Drives loads up to 900 Ω (650 Ω depending on configuration), providing sufficient power for demanding field devices
  • Lead Breakage Monitoring: An open field circuit presents high impedance to the control side, allowing alarm conditions to be monitored by the control system
  • Galvanic Isolation: Reinforced insulation (300 Veff) between output and power supply, basic insulation between input/output and input/power supply — ensures safe separation of field and control circuits
  • SIL 2 Certified: Safety Integrity Level 2 acc. to IEC/EN 61508 — suitable for safety-related applications
  • Ultra-Slim Design: Compact 12.5 mm width (housing type A2) maximizes DIN rail density in crowded control cabinets
  • Spring Terminal Connection: Push-in connection technology provides fast, vibration-proof, and maintenance-free wiring
  • Power Rail Compatibility: Connects to Pepperl+Fuchs Power Rail for simplified daisy-chained power distribution
  • DIP Switch Configurable: Easily configurable via front-facing DIP switches for input voltage range and other parameters

Function Description

The KCD2-SCD-1.SP provides complete galvanic isolation between field circuits and control circuits. The device repeats the input signal from a control system (PLC, DCS) to drive SMART I/P converters, electrical valves, and positioners located on the field side.

How it works:
  • The 4...20 mA control signal from the control system is transferred via a DC/DC converter and repeated at the output terminals to power the field device
  • Bidirectional HART communication: Digital signals (HART) can be superimposed on the analog values at either the field side or control side and are transferred bi-directionally
  • Integrated test sockets for HART communicator connection are built into the device terminals — no need for external connection boxes
  • Lead breakage monitoring: An open field circuit presents high impedance to the control side, allowing alarm conditions to be monitored by the control system
