Product Description:
The X20cSO2530 counter module from B & R Automation belongs to the X20 Fieldbus Input Output series, producing a reliable performance with two independent channels. Its dual-channel architecture supports simultaneous counting on both inputs which enhances throughput in multi-sensor setups. A peak counting frequency of up to 1 MHz proves valuable for high-speed encoder applications, ensuring an accurate pulse detection even under rapid motion. An integrated 24 VDC digital input interface provides compatibility with standard industrial sensors and to simplify system integration in existing control networks.
Incremental encoders featuring A, B, Z signals receive native support that enables direct connection without external signal converters. The availability of up/down and quadrature counting modes offers flexible counting strategies and hence it adapts easily to a range of motion‑control tasks. Drawing approximately 6 mA> at <<24 VDC, this I/O module keeps power consumption low, thus reduces thermal load in dense I/O racks. A typical input-to-output delay of approximately 4 µs promotes swift response times to minimize latency in feedback‑driven control loops. The module uses a stable 24 VDC power supply requirement and aligns with common PLC power buses for easing power‑distribution planning. The device’s slim 24 mm width conserves rack space, which peaks the I/O density in compact cabinets.
The controller X20cSO2530 withstands temperatures from -25°C up to +60°C without derating that ensures dependable counting in harsh environments. Storage down to –40°C and up to +85°C tolerates extreme ambient conditions for a prolong shelf life and guarantees startup readiness after transport. With integrated status LEDs, it delivers real‑time diagnostics at a glance and streamlines troubleshooting during commissioning. Conformal PCB coating endures corrosive-gas exposure per EN 60068‑2‑60 over 21 days, prolonging service life in aggressive atmospheres. Standard applications include packaging‐machine counting, material‑handling conveyor monitoring, and robotic‑safety control which illustrate versatile deployment across industrial automation.
