The new universal preset counters CODIX 923/924 from Kübler-Germany, are designed to display, measure and control pulses, time and frequency. They offer a simple, cost-effective solution for many control functions. When it comes to simple tasks, the logic functions and preconfigured control functions offered make these counters viable alternatives to PLCs.
The counters can be used as preset counters for process control, with up to six presets. They can also be used as batch counters for controlling lot sizes, as a function of individual quantities, or as totalising counters for process control. In an additional role, they offer secure monitoring of time, frequency, position and pulses.
The CODIX 923/924 can also be customised to users' individual needs. Optional input cards allow up to 10 inputs, up to six optocoupler outputs and up to four relay outputs. In addition, versions with an RS232/485 interface can be supplied.
It is not necessary to have in-depth programming knowledge when installing or using these devices, eliminating the need for costly service engineers. The units are easy to operate thanks to the simple, easy-to-understand programming structure and the alphanumeric display of the parameters.
The counters have a large 2-line 6-digit LCD display with sign and leading zero suppression, allowing easy readability of the data. The display range is from
-999 999 to +999 999. A compact keypad enables convenient direct entry of the presets by digit. Easy-to-understand annunciators provide information about the preset and the status of the outputs.
The devices come factory-equipped with three predefined settings for the most common applications. If a parameter is modified, then the devices adopt the new function immediately: the programming is concluded by means of the reset key. The functions Display Hold, Set and Teach-In can be called up via the new MPI input (multiple purpose input).
Plug-in screw connectors offer convenient time-saving installation. The front bezel is IP65 sealed as standard, saving on additional time and effort for protecting the device during installation. And, of course, there will always be enough space for the CODIX 923/924 counters, thanks to their minimal installation depth (107 mm) and standard panel size (48 x 48 mm).
