Counters
A counter can be used to count several actions or events. It thus participates in production management and preventive maintenance. A ratemeter can be used to display the speed of rotation of a motor in real time.
Key Features
- For fast count applications, a high-speed counting frequency: up to 50 kHz
- A two-color or backlit LCD dual display for ease of reading
- Considerable space saving due to dual-function electromechanical and electronic ranges
- A complete output operating logic to cover complex applications
- Easier maintenance thanks to removable connectors (CTR48)
- An enhanced multifunction electronic range for optimized stocks
Applications
- Up counting, Down counting
- For up counting or down counting several parts, events, a running time, the counter is the ideal solution. There are different types of counters with the following functions:
- Up/down counter, batch counter, ratemeter, chronometer, multi-totalizer, elapsed time counter, and impulse counter
- For up counting or down counting several parts, events, a running time, the counter is the ideal solution. There are different types of counters with the following functions:
- Informing, Displaying
- A counter can allow a user to be informed and to display data and quantities easily. The data displayed can be read directly on the front panel.
- Triggering, Actuating
- A counter can be used to trigger an action or an intervention on a machine. The outputs actuate directly and/or transmit data to the control system.
- Measuring, Chronometer timing
- A counter can be used to schedule preventive maintenance. The machine running time is measured and the duration of an action timed with a chronometer.
