Electronic counters can have many different functions for count, control, and time monitoring. These include arithmetic functions, controller, batch counter, count totalizer, event counter, preset, pulse counter, delay cycle, position indicator, rate meters or tachometers, and time meters. Reset capability can be none, manual, remote or auto reset (model dependent). Electronic counters are available in several mounting configurations and include stand-alone, DIN rail mount, panel or flange mount, PCB mount, portable, and rack mount options.

Mechanical counters and electromechanical (electric) counters are generally used as totalizers, with some models available as preset counters. They visually display counts based on rotary, ratcheting, or voltage pulse input. Readout via decade wheels that have 0-9 numerals printed on a contrasting background. Counting is accomplished through direct coupling to a rotating or reciprocating machine element – e.g. a ratchet drive or rotary shaft, measuring wheel, lever (hand tally, vary tally), cam, or switch. The mounting location for a mechanical or electromechanical counter is greatly influenced by its linkage or coupling requirements or pulse voltage source.

The high precision accuracy required by timed process events make electronic timers perfectly suited to diverse factory automation and industrial manufacturing applications. Electronic timers feature a modern appearance, offer precise digital programmability and choice of LED or LCD display to meet virtually any production tracking or monitoring need. Rugged, reliable and available in many forms, they can be customized based on the type of time indicators, reset timer and repeat cycle timer varieties.

Process indicators and controls are used for display and/or control of process variables in applications that use analog signals representing pressure, temperature, weight, etc. Choose from a wide variety of Dynapar and Veeder-Root brand DC Volt meters, DC Current Meters, Process Volt Meters, and Current Loop Indicators.

Multi-function indicators/controller models are combinations of totalizer, predetermining, counter, and rate measurement techniques. They often do the job of several instruments, saving time, money, and panel space, while reducing installation complexity. Ideal for applications that require multi-step sequential operations like count/time.

Rate meters – Accurate and versatile, industrial-duty rate indicators (Speed/Rate, Draw, and Multifunction) provide a digital display of a process by displaying the input of a sensor representing rate or speed. Many rate indicators also function as counters. Multifunction devices can be programmed for either rate, draw (difference, ratio, % difference), or flow input.
