Product Description
The EMERSON KJ4001X1-BE1 is an 8‑wide I/O carrier with a shield bar for the Emerson DeltaV distributed control system (DCS), designed to connect analog, digital, and temperature I/O modules to field instruments and controllers in process industries. The EMERSON KJ4001X1-BE1 supports Local Bus power (12.6 VDC, 8 A) and bussed field power (30 VDC, 6.5 A), with ATEX/IECEx Zone 2 and Class I Div 2 hazardous area certifications for safe operation in explosive atmospheresEmerson. It operates from -40°C to +70°C, with 10g shock and 0.7g vibration resistance, ensuring reliability in harsh industrial environmentsEmerson. The EMERSON KJ4001X1-BE1 integrates with HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, and Profibus DP protocols, enabling seamless communication with smart field devices and legacy systems. It features hot‑swappable I/O module support, LED status indicators, and a shield bar for enhanced EMI/RFI protection, minimizing downtime during maintenance and module replacement. The EMERSON KJ4001X1-BE1 also includes redundant power inputs and diagnostic alarms for critical process control, making it ideal for power generation, oil & gas, and chemical manufacturing applications requiring high availability and signal integrity. It is compatible with Emerson DeltaV v10.3 and later, ensuring easy upgrades and retrofits of existing DeltaV systems.
