Pulses can be created by the PLC or by an associated I\/O module, and the module supports incremental encoder simulation for testing or closed-loop setups. Key specifications include a frequency range from 100 Hz up to 500 kHz (default 50 kHz), a 50% duty factor, and a ramp calculation of 2 ms per step, with an output cycle time of 1 ms synchronized to the K-bus and a dead time of 0.6 ms after each K-bus cycle. The device presents a 24-bit output process image (16 bits of output data, 8 bits of control) and a 24-bit input process image (16 bits of input data, 8 bits of status), with two inputs available at +T and +Z. Electrical isolation is 500 V between the K-bus\/field voltage and the I\/O, and current consumption from the K-bus is typ. 50 mA with a worst-case 120 mA (load-dependent). The KS2521 weighs roughly 50 g and is rated for an ambient operating range of 0 °C to 55 °C. This module is part of Beckhoff’s KL2521\/KS2521 family, offering a compact, plug-in pulse train solution for high-speed motor control, encoder simulation, and precise frequency signaling in automation projects. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BECKHOFF","offers":[{"title":"Used Surplus - Excellent Condition","offer_id":51676791734574,"sku":null,"price":87.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0818\/1038\/files\/Ebay_website_image_9a59be8e-d5bc-4a27-9751-81d577e8ddbb.jpg?v=1769553500","url":"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/beckhoff-automation-ks2521-pulse-train-i-module","provider":"PLG Automation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
