Overview

K60

K45

K20

Three coordinated series of AS-Interface compact modules with

digital and analog compact modules and a high degree of pro-

tection are available for operation in the field:

• Series K60 (digital and analog)

• Series K45 (digital)

• Series K20 (digital)

All compact modules are characterized by particularly simple

handling. The K60 and K45 modules are mounted with a mount-

ing plate. The mounting plate is used to receive the AS-Interface

flat cables and enables mounting on a wall or standard mounting

rail.

The K20 modules are directly mounted without a mounting plate

and connected to the AS-Interface using a round cable.
