Beckhoff KL2408 8-Channel Digital Input Module

Beckhoff KL2408 is an eight-channel digital output terminal for 24 V DC loads, part of Beckhoff’s KL2xxx Bus Terminal family. It delivers eight independent outputs, each capable of switching up to 0.5 A, suitable for driving relays, contactors, indicator lights, or other 24 V actuators. The module uses a 1-wire connection for its bus interface to the Beckhoff system, allowing compact wiring on a terminal strip and straightforward integration into a Beckhoff controller network. When installed with a Beckhoff controller, the KL2408’s outputs are commanded by the control software to perform binary on/off switching in automation tasks. This compact, modular 8-channel output module expands digital I/O capacity in 24 VDC environments without adding separate I/O cards, making it a common choice for distributed I/O in machine control and automation panels.
