Description
Beckhoff KL6224 I/O-Link terminal — description and applications
The Beckhoff KL6224 I/O-Link terminal is a 4-channel Bus Terminal module from the KL series, designed for integrating IO-Link sensors and actuators into automation systems based on the K-bus. The module enables communication with IO-Link-compliant peripheral devices, allowing remote configuration, diagnostics, and parameterization of sensors without the need for physical replacement.
This product is intended for maintenance departments, system integrators, and machine builders using Beckhoff solutions based on the classic K-bus, where existing I/O-Link modules need to be expanded or replaced.
Key features
- 4 independent IO-Link communication channels
- Maximum transmission speed of 230,4 kBaud
- Output load up to 500 mA (to be verified per channel)
- K-bus rail mounting alongside other KL-series modules
- CE and UL Listed markings visible on the housing
- Compact design typical of the Beckhoff Bus Terminal family

Applications
The Beckhoff KL6224 I/O-Link terminal is used in industrial installations where sensors and actuators communicate via the IO-Link interface and the master controller is based on the Beckhoff K-bus architecture. Typical applications include production lines, industrial machinery and assembly stations where remote diagnostics of sensor parameters is required.
The module is also useful as a spare part for maintenance departments in existing installations where migration of the K-bus module to a newer standard (e.g. EtherCAT) is not planned in the short term.
Condition and scope of delivery
The Beckhoff KL6224 I/O-Link terminal presented here comes from surplus stock (new-old-stock) — it is brand new (factory new), unused and never installed. The photos show the original red Beckhoff packaging with a label bearing serial number 38200404 and the description "4 Channel IO-LINK Terminal, max. 230,4 kBaud / 500mA".
The advantage of new-old-stock products is that they are fully functional new components, often no longer available through regular distribution or with shorter lead times than ordering from the manufacturer. Buyers should review all product photos, as they form an integral part of the description and allow an independent assessment of the item's visual condition.
Why RECOSTOCK
At RECOSTOCK we sell brand new (factory new) industrial automation components sourced from surplus stock and liquidations, at prices lower than in regular distribution. Every transaction is documented with a VAT invoice, and shipments are packed to industrial standards to protect the electronics during transport.
Shipping is from Poland, and our team assists with verifying catalog numbers and selecting replacements for existing Beckhoff installations and those of other manufacturers.
Compatibility and installation
The Beckhoff KL6224 I/O-Link terminal is mounted on the K-bus rail together with other KL-series modules, forming a distributed I/O system controlled by a Beckhoff Bus Coupler. The module connects mechanically and electrically to adjacent terminals via the internal K-bus visible on the side wall of the housing.
Before purchase, be sure to compare the full catalog number KL6224 against the technical documentation of your installation or the component being replaced, to confirm full mechanical and functional compatibility.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
How can I verify that this is a genuine Beckhoff KL6224 I/O-Link terminal?
The catalog number KL6224 is visible on the module label, on the original packaging and on the side wall of the housing, allowing unambiguous identification of the product.
Is the module compatible with my Beckhoff installation?
The KL6224 terminal works with the Beckhoff K-bus system; however, before purchase you should compare the full catalog number against the documentation of your installation or the component being replaced.
What does “new-old-stock” status mean?
This means the product is brand new (factory new) and unused, but comes from surplus stock or a liquidation rather than from the manufacturer's current series production.
Will I receive a VAT invoice?
Yes, a VAT invoice is issued for every purchase.
How does shipping work?
The shipment is packed to industrial standards and dispatched from Poland. If you have questions about availability or compatibility, please contact us before purchasing.
