Product Description

The ECPNC3-1 is a versatile module from B&R Automation designed for precise control in industrial automation systems. It features a signal encoder connection using a 9-pin D-type female (F) connector. This connector allows the module to connect securely to compatible encoders, enabling the transmission of precise position and speed data for accurate control. This type of connector also allows the module to integrate smoothly with a wide range of encoder devices. This module relies on a nominal input voltage range of 5 to 12 VDC, functioning effectively in various industrial environments.

The ECPNC3-1 can accommodate up to 50 meters for the signal encoder, allowing users to set up the module based on their system configuration. It has the capacity to process signals over extended distance while maintaining reliability and data integrity. The module is rated for maximum counting frequency of 200 kHz with four-fold evaluation. This capacity enables it to process signals at exceptionally high speeds. This ensures that even rapid changes in input signals are accurately captured. The four-fold evaluation capability enhances the precision of counting by analyzing each signal multiple times.

The ECPNC3-1 features an analog output of ±10 V, providing a versatile range for transmitting precise control signals in automation applications. This output facilitates the control of a wide range of devices including those that operate on negative voltage. With the ability to handle input frequencies up to 50 kHz, this module ensures precise and timely processing of input signals for improved accuracy in motion control tasks. This unit has a typical input current requirement of 2 mA at 5 VDC and 5 mA at 15 VDC, making the module economical to operate within industrial systems.
