VCM - VOLTAGE CONVERTER MODULES

Converts AC/DC voltages to an acceptable signal input for many RLC counters

and accessories and provides input/output voltage isolation.

TCM - TRIAC CONVERTER MODULE

Accepts unloaded, high off-state leakage triac output from sensors and

programmable controllers.

LCM - LOGIC CONVERTER MODULE

Interfaces with CMOS, TTL, and other logic circuits up to +28 VDC, at speeds to

50 KHz. Allows Cub Counters to share sensor outputs with other series counters.

These miniature sized modules are completely encapsulated in PVC, which

provides protection against oil, water, dirt, and mechanical damage. They can be

quickly and easily mounted to most surfaces by using the self-stick adhesive pad.

VCM - VOLTAGE CONVERTER MODULES

These modules provide a convenient way to adapt RLC Counters to most any

machine control voltage signal. They also make it easy to upgrade electro-

mechanical counter installations with RLC Counters.

VCM’s are available in two input voltage ranges that cover the spectrum

from 4-270 V. The non-polarized input of these modules will accept A.C. (50/60

Hz) or D.C. voltages at input cycles up to 30 Hz. The output uses MOSFET

technology that is compatible with either the L.S. Count or Remote Reset inputs

of RLC Counters. Electrical isolation between input and output is achieved by

means of an internal opto-isolator rated at 2300 VRMS.
