Product Description
The ECPNC1-1 is a MULTI counter module manufactured by B & R Automation for use in automation systems. It features 1 input for an incremental encoder, designed to accurately measure and control the position in automated systems. The module supports a 24-bit resolution, which allows it to interpret a vast number of pulses per revolution or movement increment. This high resolution is crucial for applications requiring precise position measurements and fine control. It ensures that even small changes in position are detected and processed accurately.
With an input frequency capability of 50 kHz, the ECPNC1-1 can handle high-speed encoder signals. This means it can accurately track the position of fast-moving components, making it suitable for dynamic applications where rapid changes in position need to be monitored and controlled effectively. It provides a supply voltage for the encoder, ranging from 5 to 15 VDC, ensuring stable signal transmission. The ability to support a range of supply voltages adds flexibility, accommodating different encoder models and setups. The module also features an analog output of ~10 V with 11-bit resolution. This output can be used to convert the encoder's position data into an analog signal, which can then be used for further processing or integration with other systems.
For ease of monitoring and diagnostics, the module includes a 6-digit 7-segment display. This display shows the current count value of the encoder, providing real-time feedback and allowing operators to quickly check the encoder's position without needing additional equipment or software. This module is well-suited for applications that require accurate motion control ensuring effectiveness in various industrial settings. It has a compact design that supports simple installation and seamless connectivity with a variety of automation systems.
