Pepperl+Fuchs KFU8-UFC-EX1.D Frequency Converter

The Pepperl+Fuchs KFU8-UFC-EX1.D Frequency Converter is a 1-channel intrinsically safe signal conditioner that converts and isolates frequency signals from hazardous areas for safe, reliable transmission to control systems.

Designed for process automation, chemical plants, oil and gas facilities, and other hazardous environments, it accepts NAMUR or pulse-frequency inputs and delivers an analog 4–20 mA output and/or a switching output, with galvanic isolation between input, output, and supply.

The unit operates from 19–30 VDC, mounts on a DIN rail, uses screw terminals, and has a slim 12.5 mm housing width with a -20°C to 60°C operating range to withstand harsh conditions.

Common replacements include Pepperl+Fuchs KFD2-UFC-1.D, reflecting its role in updating intrinsically safe frequency-converter installations in hazardous-area instrumentation.
