Counters are essential electromechanical or electronic devices used in industrial automation and electrical systems to register and display the number of events, cycles, or pulses occurring in a process. These instruments typically feature a numeric display (mechanical roller or LCD/LED), a reset function, and various input configurations for voltage pulses (e.g., 24 VDC, 230 VAC) or contact closures. Counters can be classified by their operating principle: totalizing counters (non-resettable or resettable), preset counters (with threshold outputs), and bidirectional counters (up/down). Key technical parameters include counting speed (up to several kHz), input signal types (PNP/NPN, dry contact), supply voltage, and output relay or transistor ratings. In industrial environments, counters are often mounted on DIN rails or panel fronts, with IP ratings suitable for control cabinets (IP20) or harsh environments (IP65).
Counters are deployed across a wide range of industrial sectors and applications. In manufacturing, they monitor production output, machine cycles, and batch counts. In packaging and bottling lines, they track units per minute or per shift. In material handling and logistics, counters record conveyor belt cycles or pallet movements. They are also critical in energy management for pulse counting from utility meters, and in process control for event logging in chemical, pharmaceutical, and food processing plants. Counters integrate seamlessly into PLC-based systems via digital inputs or fieldbus interfaces, and are commonly found in control panels, switchgear cabinets, and distributed automation stations.
Our portfolio includes several subcategories of counters tailored to specific needs. The main articles are: Totalizing Counters (e.g., code OM13-001, OM13-002) with 6 or 8-digit displays, available in electromechanical or electronic versions; Preset Counters (e.g., OM13-010, OM13-011) with one or two setpoints and relay outputs; Bidirectional Counters (e.g., OM13-020) for up/down counting applications; and Multifunction Counters (e.g., OM13-030) combining totalizing, preset, and rate indication. Article codes typically follow the pattern OM13-XXX, where XXX denotes the specific model variant, including display type, input voltage, and output configuration. Accessories such as mounting adapters and programming kits are also available.
