Advantech Launches New High Speed Quadrature Encoder and Counter Module



(Cincinnati, Ohio - 5/09/08) - The Industrial Automation Group of Advantech introduces the ADAM-5081, a high speed quadrature encoder and counter module for use with the ADAM-5550 series Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs). The ADAM-5081 has a high isolation of 2,500 VDC, a high speed frequency mode (5 Hz ~ 1 MHz), and a counter code at 1 MHz. There's also an advanced digital filter to eliminate noise and interference (1 ~ 65000µ sec) which ensures accurate data collection and transmission.

The ADAM-5081 features four counter modes (up/down, bi-directional, up and A/B phase modes), which counts precise data units in minute detail. The frequency mode of the ADAM-5081 supports up to eight channels and can control a wider range of electromagnetic wave status under certain conditions.

The ADAM-5081 supports four digital output channels, which can be triggered by a preset counter value, and can watch the position encoder of the machine while doing the position comparing. Once the preset value is reached, the system requires a digital output signal to trigger the camera. With built-in DO channels already in the ADAM-5081, the respond speed is maximized.

For applications requiring high speed data collection with high accuracy, such as facility automation and machine automation, and the ability to withstand harsh environments, the ADAM-5081 module is the optimum choice. To purchase or if you have any questions, please contact Advantech at 1-800-205-7940 or your regional Advantech authorized dealer for more information.
