Schneider BMXEHC0200 Modicon X80 High-speed Counter Module, 2-channel
Product Introduction
The Schneider Electric BMXEHC0200 is a high-speed counter module in the Modicon X80 series. It provides two counting channels in a single slot. Specifically, the module handles incremental and absolute encoder signals. Furthermore, it reaches a maximum frequency of 60 kHz per channel. Therefore, it suits fast motion, flow, and position measurement tasks. This unit shares the same I/O platform as the M340 and M580.
Technical Specifications
The BMXEHC0200 offers two application channels. Each channel works as a high-speed counter. The maximum frequency reaches 60 kHz. In addition, the module supports incremental and absolute encoder counting modes. Channel-to-channel isolation protects signals from interference. Meanwhile, a module status LED supports quick diagnostics. The module occupies one slot on the X-bus backplane.
Electrical Parameters
Supply voltage for the BMXEHC0200 is 24 V DC. The backplane delivers this power directly. Power consumption reaches 2.4 W. Besides, bus current draw is 100 mA at 24 V DC. These values help engineers plan power budgets. The current demand stays within normal X80 rack limits. Therefore, the module suits standard control cabinet designs.
Mechanical and Environmental Data
The module measures 100 × 28 × 93 mm. It weighs only 0.16 kg. The housing carries an IP20 protection rating. Operating temperature ranges from 0°C to +60°C. Storage temperature spans -25°C to +70°C. Relative humidity stays between 5% and 95%. However, condensation must not occur. These ratings suit standard control cabinets. They also fit many factory floor environments.
Installation Guide
First, verify the X-bus backplane has an open slot. Next, align the BMXEHC0200 with the slot guides. Then slide the module firmly into place. After that, tighten the retaining screw. The backplane supplies 24 V DC power automatically. No external wiring is needed for supply. For encoder signals, connect the wiring to the front terminals. Specifically, match the counting mode to your encoder type. Finally, configure the counter parameters in your software. The module is now ready for high-speed counting tasks.
