PHOENIX Passive module 2321871 FLKM-2KS50/AAR145/Z/YCS

The PHOENIX CONTACT Passive Module 2321871 is a specialized, unpowered interface component designed to seamlessly integrate powerful motor feedback systems into a centralized control network. It acts as a robust adapter, connecting a motor with a HIPERFACE® DSL feedback sensor directly to a higher-level controller or drive via a single, standardized cable. This module simplifies wiring, reduces installation costs, and ensures reliable data transmission for precise motor control in demanding automation environments.

Key Features & Benefits

• HIPERFACE® DSL Interface: Supports the advanced HIPERFACE DSL digital communication protocol, enabling high-speed, bidirectional data exchange for absolute position, velocity, and diagnostic information on a two-wire connection.

• Passive Design: Requires no external power supply or configuration, making installation simple and foolproof. It is a plug-and-play mechanical interface.

• Dual Connectivity: Provides two independent M23 ports, allowing for a daisy-chain connection to a second motor feedback sensor, which optimizes cabling and reduces the number of connections needed at the controller.

• Robust Metal Housing: The durable aluminum casing ensures high electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), mechanical strength, and effective heat dissipation, making it ideal for harsh industrial environments.

• Space-Saving & Efficient: Consolidates feedback connections into a single, compact module, saving panel space and simplifying control cabinet layout.

Technical Specifications

Applications

This module is essential in high-performance automation systems that require precise motion control and feedback, such as:

• Servo Drive Systems: Connecting one or two HIPERFACE DSL-equipped servo motors to a central servo drive or multi-axis controller.

• Robotics & Automated Arms: Providing critical feedback for precise positioning and movement in robotic joints.

• CNC Machinery: Integrating spindle and axis motors into CNC control systems for high-accuracy machining.

• Packaging & Printing Machinery: Ensuring synchronized motion and accurate registration in high-speed production equipment.

• Material Handling Systems: Used in conveyors, gantries, and automated guided vehicles (AGVs) for reliable motor feedback.

Compatibility & Integration Notes

• This module is designed exclusively for use with motors and drives that support the HIPERFACE® DSL protocol.

• It is typically installed in the control cabinet near the drive or controller.

• The daisy-chain capability (via the two M23 ports) allows for efficient wiring in multi-axis systems.
