PHOENIX Universal module 2311399 UM-2KS50/UNI/CS/Z/SO180

The PHOENIX CONTACT Universal Module 2311399 (UM-2KS50/UNI/CS/Z/SO180) is a highly versatile, pre-assembled interface cable designed to provide the ultimate flexibility for connecting field devices to modular I/O systems. It combines a universal screw-clamp connection for maximum field-side adaptability with a pre-terminated, shielded system-side connection for guaranteed reliability. The integrated 180-degree angled connector ensures optimal cable routing in space-constrained control cabinets, making it an ideal solution for a vast range of sensors and actuators in industrial automation.

Key Features & Benefits

• Ultimate Field-Side Flexibility (UNI): The universal screw terminal accepts any standard solid or stranded wire (up to 1.5 mm² / AWG 16), allowing for direct connection to virtually any 2-wire sensor or actuator without specialized connectors.

• Optimized Cabinet Routing (SO180): The 180-degree angled connector on the system side allows for clean, logical, and space-saving cable management within the control panel, reducing bending radii and mechanical strain.

• Pre-assembled Reliability: Factory-crimped connectors ensure perfect termination, eliminate installation errors, and provide a vibration-proof connection to the I/O module, guaranteeing signal integrity from the start.

• Superior Noise Immunity: The 2KS specification indicates a twisted pair design with an overall braided shield, offering excellent protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) for both analog and digital signals.

• Tool-Less Disconnect (Z): The "Z" in the ordering code signifies that the system-side connector features a locking lever for quick, tool-less insertion and removal, significantly simplifying maintenance and module replacement.

Applications

This universal module is the perfect solution for a wide array of connection tasks in industrial control panels, including:

• Connecting to Analog I/O Modules: Wiring 2-wire 4...20 mA or 0...10 V sensors (e.g., pressure, temperature, level) and actuators.

• Connecting to Digital I/O Modules: Wiring 2-wire digital sensors (e.g., inductive, photoelectric) and actuators (e.g., solenoids, small valves).

• Mixed Cabinet Environments: Ideal for panels with a high density of I/O modules where space optimization and clean routing are critical.

• Maintenance and Retrofitting: The universal terminal and tool-less disconnect make it excellent for quick replacements or system modifications.

Compatibility & Integration Notes

• This is a passive interface module. It must be used with a compatible PHOENIX CONTACT I/O module (e.g., from the Inline family).

• The system-side connector is designed to plug directly into a specific type of I/O module port.

• The twisted and shielded design is critical for protecting signals in electrically noisy environments.

Why Choose This Product?

The PHOENIX CONTACT Universal Module 2311399 offers an unrivaled combination of flexibility, reliability, and convenience. It eliminates the need for an inventory of specialized sensor connectors by providing a universal terminal interface. The pre-assembled design ensures a perfect connection, while the angled, tool-less connector saves valuable space and time during installation and maintenance. This results in a cleaner control cabinet, reduced wiring errors, and lower overall installation costs.
