Description
The product with the part number 185503D-01, also known as alternative part number 777518-500, falls under the FieldPoint category. This particular model, the FP-CTR-500, is an 8-Channel Counter Input Module designed for specific applications but is not recommended for new designs due to its technological specifications.
It features 8 count-input channels along with 4 gate-input channels, providing flexibility in handling various input types. The module operates within an input voltage range of 10 to 30 VDC, accommodating a wide range of power supplies. Its maximum input frequency is capped at 50 kHz, ensuring accurate data capture for fast-moving processes.
Among its notable features are configurable low-pass filters, which help in mitigating signal noise, thereby improving the quality of the data collected. Additionally, the counter channels are cascadable, allowing for extended counting capabilities beyond the immediate 8 channels provided. The inputs are optically isolated, enhancing the module’s resilience against electrical noise and potential damage from high voltage spikes.
The input type is sinking, which means it is designed to sink current, making it compatible with a variety of sensor outputs. Furthermore, the counter outputs can be configured to pulse or toggle, offering versatility in signaling and control for different application needs.
