With regard to the supply of products, the current issue of the following document is applicable: The general terms of delivery for products and services of the electrical industry, as published by the central association of the "Elektrotechnik und Elektroindustrie (ZVEI) e.V.", including the supplementary clause "Extended reservation of title".
Overview Range of application The K-System devices from Pepperl+Fuchs are used for transmitting signals between field devices and a process control system/control system. The devices marked with "Ex" in the type designation are suitable for the connection of field devices used in potentially explosive atmospheres.
HART Loop Converter KFD2-HLC-(Ex)1.D(.**) Overview The HART system allows digital communication with HART field devices via cables for analogue 4 mA ... 20 mA field circuits. The HART Loop Converter KFD2-HLC-(Ex)1.D(.**) from the K-System HART (HLC) evaluates up to four HART variables (PV, SV, TV, QV).
If faults cannot be eliminated, the devices must be taken out of operation and protected from being placed in service again inadvertently. Devices must only be repaired directly by the manufacturer Pepperl+Fuchs. Tampering with or making changes to the devices is dangerous and therefore not permitted. They render the warranty void.
IP20 and must therefore be protected from undesirable ambient conditions (water, small foreign objects). Attention The devices of the K-system from Pepperl+Fuchs and thus also the HART Loop Converter KFD2-HLC-(Ex)1.D(.**) can be mounted on a 35 mm standard rail corresponding to DIN EN 50022. The devices must be snapped onto the rail vertically, and never slanted or tipped to the side.
HART Loop Converter KFD2-HLC-(Ex)1.D(.**) Installation and connection Dimensions of the KFD2-HLC-(Ex)1.D(.**) in mm Connection The detachable terminals of the KF-series considerably simplify the connection and the switch cabinet assembly. They make it possible to replace devices quickly and without error if a customer service becomes necessary.
Installation and connection 5.2.1 Connection input (field circuit) The intrinsically safe field circuit is connected to the blue terminals 1 to 6 on the KFD2-HLC-Ex1.D(.**). This may be conducted using DIN EN 60079-14-compliant leads into the hazardous area. You can connect the following three operating modes: 1.
The non-intrinsically safe field circuit is connected to the green terminals 1 to 6 on the KFD2-HLC- 1.D(.**). The remaining green terminals have the following functions: KFD2-HLC-Ex1.D • Terminals 7 ... 9: output I, current output as source (7/8) or sink (7/9) KFD2-HLC-Ex1.D...

HART Loop Converter KFD2-HLC-(Ex)1.D(.**) Installation and connection Setting parameters of HART field device In order to set the parameters of the connected HART field device, you will require a HART handheld terminal which you can connect to terminals 22/24 or the field cables. Transmitting the HART signal via the current outputs of the HLC is not possible.
HART Loop Converter KFD2-HLC-(Ex)1.D(.**) Installation and connection Meaning of LED indication Indication Meaning green missing power green regularly flashing power-up self-test phase (unit not yet working) green normal operating mode yellow Out 1 ... 4, output relay energised flashes briefly single HART error message received from the field device regularly flashing HART data invalid (communication loss or field device fault) HLC self-test error detected (faulty unit, possible loss of functions)
Err sensor fault (red LED flashes) If switching the HLC on/off and checking the cables does not rectify the fault, please contact Pepperl+Fuchs or the field device manufacturer. The relays power down when a fault occurs. For information on the behaviour of the current output in the event of a fault, see section 8.4.4.
HART Loop Converter KFD2-HLC-(Ex)1.D(.**) Description of HART operations: Description of HART operations Dynamic variable acquisition HART command 3 is always used to obtain the applicable dynamic variables, either directly or by activating it in the Burst Mode. Burst Mode operation The HART Burst Mode is the HLC preferred one because it ensures a faster operation.
