Keyence KV-N14ATP Nano PLC Source Output

Keyence KV-N14ATP PLC Controller – PNP Source Output for Small Machines

The KV-N14ATP delivers dependable logic control in a space-saving package. Keyence built this KV Nano unit as a terminal-block type controller. It provides 8 input points and 6 transistor output points in one housing. Engineers select this model when their wiring scheme calls for source (PNP) outputs. Moreover, the built-in RS-232C port links directly to HMIs and host computers.

Technical Specifications

The KV-N14ATP offers an 8k program capacity. Basic instruction execution starts at 50 ns. Application instructions run at 170 ns. Furthermore, the controller accepts expanded ladder, KV Script, and mnemonic programming. Two positioning pulse outputs reach 100 kHz per axis. Besides that, two 32-bit high-speed counters handle 100 kHz single-phase or 50 kHz phase-difference signals.

I/O and Communication Details

The base unit includes 8 inputs and 6 outputs. Users can attach up to 3 expansion units through the backplane. This raises total capacity to 128 I/O points. Meanwhile, the RS-232C modular connector supports KV STUDIO and no-protocol serial links. Communication modules also extend options via the backplane slot.

Electrical and Environmental Data

The KV-N14ATP accepts 100 to 240 VAC input power with +10%/-15% tolerance. A 24 VDC output supply delivers 0.6 A. Outputs use MOSFET transistors in source (PNP) mode, rated 30 VDC at 0.5 A per point. Operating temperature ranges from 0 to +55 °C without freezing. Storage temperature spans -25 to +75 °C. In addition, humidity tolerance covers 5 to 95% RH without condensation.

Installation Guide

First, mount the unit on a DIN rail or panel inside a clean enclosure. Next, wire the AC supply to the marked terminals. Then connect input signals and output loads following the terminal diagram. Keep high-voltage cables away from signal lines to reduce noise. Finally, set the communication parameters in KV STUDIO and run a test program.
