Product Overview
The CNT204/H (00012290-20) is a specialized high-speed counter and positioning interface for the Bachmann M1 automation system. Engineered for precision tasks such as frequency measurement, phase-shift detection, and incremental encoder tracking, this module provides a hardware-based solution for pulse trains that exceed the capabilities of standard digital inputs. The CNT204/H (00012290-20) features four independent channels, two of which are specifically optimized for incremental encoders with A/B tracks, ensuring synchronized data acquisition at the hardware level.
Number of Channels: 4 independent counter channels
Incremental Encoder Support: 2 channels (supporting A/B phase tracks)
Signal Level: 24V HTL (High Threshold Logic)
Timing Resolution: 42 ns (minimum pulse duration for period and differential measurement)
Maximum Input Frequency: Up to 250 kHz (depending on mode and signal quality)
Measurement Modes: Frequency, Period, Incremental Counter, Phase-shift, Gate measurement
Input Isolation: 500 V RMS between field side and system bus
Synchronization: Hardware-integrated clock for cross-channel precision
Diagnostics: Integrated status LEDs for every input (channel activity and error states)
Power Supply: Internal via backplane; encoder power available at front connectors
Operating Temperature Range: -30 °C to +60 °C (Cold-climate compliant)
Storage Temperature: -40 °C to +85 °C
Our production line was down due to a faulty Bently Nevada monitor. We found it in stock here and they shipped it via DHL immediately. Back in operation within 48 hours—truly a lifesaver for our plant.
Finding brand new, original modules is critical for our safety. This team delivers factory-fresh components with full certification. Their commitment to only selling new products makes them our most trusted partner.
We have sourced Honeywell and Schneider parts here for two years. Every shipment arrives well-packaged with original factory seals intact. Clear communication and the best lead times in the industry.
