Emerson KL3101X1-BA1 Analog Input CHARM for DeltaV Electronic Marshalling

The KL3101X1-BA1 analog input CHARM captures 4–20 mA and voltage signals for Emerson DeltaV electronic marshalling systems. This unit reads transmitters and position sensors across process plants. Engineers specify it for accurate measurement in compact marshalling cabinets.

Physical Dimensions and Weight

The KL3101X1-BA1 measures 22 mm in width and 95 mm in depth. Its housing stands 105 mm tall, which fits standard CHARM carrier slots in DeltaV cabinets. The module weighs approximately 0.12 kg, so carrier loading stays balanced during marshalling builds.

Interface and Connectivity

This module plugs into the CHARM carrier through 1 edge connector on the rear face. The KL3101X1-BA1 presents field wiring through 2 screw terminals on the front face. Consequently, technicians can land transmitter leads without extra terminal blocks. Two LEDs report channel activity and fault status during commissioning.

Component Count and Build

Each KL3101X1-BA1 carries 1 analog input channel with 12-bit resolution. The assembly includes 2 screw terminals and 1 isolation barrier. Furthermore, 1 input filter circuit suppresses noise on long field cables.

Energy Storage and Power Parameters

The module draws power directly from the CHARM carrier backplane. A 0.01 F capacitor stabilizes the measurement rail during conversion cycles. Therefore, the KL3101X1-BA1 holds reading accuracy through brief supply dips. The design stores no long-term energy and needs no backup battery.

Key Technical Parameters

Integration Notes

The KL3101X1-BA1 slides into any free CHARM carrier slot without tools. Technicians assign channel tags through the DeltaV configuration software before startup. Additionally, the input filter keeps readings stable on long cable runs through noisy plant areas.
