Rockwell Automation, a pioneer in industrial automation, recently announced the launch of a new low-speed counter module, the 1756-LSC8XIB8I, model number A6120, further expanding its line of ControlLogix systems. This module is designed to provide accurate counting functions, especially for applications that need to process rapidly changing signals.

The 1756-LSC8XIB8I module is an 8-point counter input module, each input point can be used as a counter separately. It is capable of counting at frequencies up to 40 kHz, making it ideal for rapidly changing signals. The module also provides outputs for parameters such as cumulative count, instantaneous frequency, average frequency, instantaneous pulse width, and average pulse width, giving it great flexibility in monitoring and controlling various processes or systems.

The features of this module include:

8 independently isolated input points: Each point can be used as an independent counter, providing a 31-bit count range from 0 to 2,147,483,648
.
High-speed counting capability: The maximum counting frequency can reach 40 kHz to meet the needs of high-speed counting.
Flexible input configuration: can be used as a standard input or configured as a counter control function.
Wide voltage range: Supports operating voltages from 10 to 30 volts DC with a nominal input voltage of 24 volts DC.
Isolation protection: 250V continuous isolation voltage between input and backplane enhances module safety and reliability.
The introduction of the 1756-LSC8XIB8I module is expected to play an important role in increasing the level of automation and processing quality of the production line, especially in industries where counting accuracy and speed are highly required. The release of this module further enriches Rockwell Automation’s product line in the field of industrial automation and is expected to become a key component in industrial automation control systems.
