The Beckhoff Bus Terminal system is characterized by low physical volume and high modularity. When
planning a project it must be assumed that at least one Bus Coupler and a number of Bus Terminals will be
used. The mechanical dimensions of the Bus Couplers are independent of the fieldbus system.
Fig.3: BCxx50
The total width of the fieldbus station is the width of the Bus Coupler/Bus TerminalController plus the width
of the Bus Terminals being used (incl. KL9010 bus end terminal). Depending on design, the Bus Terminals
are 12mm or24mm wide. The height is 100mm.
The BCxx50 series Bus TerminalControllers are 68mm deep.
