CS1W-CT021 OMRON

The CS1W-CT021 is a high-speed counter unit manufactured by Omron, designed for precise and rapid counting applications in industrial automation. This unit features two independent channels, each capable of counting frequencies up to 500 kHz, ensuring accurate data acquisition even in high-speed processes. It supports both open collector (5/12/24 VDC) and line driver input types, providing flexibility in interfacing with various sensors and encoders. The open collector inputs are compatible with a wide range of voltage levels, while the line driver inputs offer enhanced noise immunity for reliable counting in electrically noisy environments. The CS1W-CT021 also incorporates four integral outputs, which can be configured to trigger actions based on specific count values or events. These outputs can be used to control external devices, such as actuators, alarms, or other control systems. Its robust design and versatile input/output options make it suitable for applications such as position control, speed monitoring, and event counting. This unit is engineered to seamlessly integrate with Omron's CS series programmable logic controllers (PLCs), simplifying system design and programming. The CS1W-CT021 enhances the capabilities of the PLC, enabling precise and responsive control in demanding industrial environments. It is an ideal solution for applications requiring high-speed counting and accurate event detection.
