Overview
The Redington P32-1026 is a 6-digit electromechanical counter designed for industrial counting and production monitoring. Manufactured by Redington (sold under the Trumeter brand by Trumeter Technologies), this Model 10 Series counter features panel-mount configuration with a rigid metal frame and housing for accurate mechanical counting. The unit operates on 115VAC input and reaches counting speeds of 1,000 counts per minute (16.6 counts per second), making it suitable for moderate-speed industrial automation applications.
Key Features
- 6-digit display: Large 5mm height white numerals on black background for clear visibility under various lighting conditions
- Panel mount design: Recessed mounting with standard 3.85″ × 1.75″ panel cutout dimensions
- Key reset mechanism: Secure lock-and-key reset prevents accidental counter reset during operation
- Counting speed: Up to 1,000 counts per minute with 30ms on/off pulse minimum requirement
- Rugged construction: Metal frame and housing provide rigid support for accurate long-term operation
Technical Specifications
The P32-1026 is rated for 115VAC input with ±10% tolerance and consumes 7.8W during operation. Maximum counting speed reaches 1,000 counts per minute, with a minimum pulse requirement of 30ms on and 30ms off timing. The 6-digit display uses 5mm-height numerals in white on black background for excellent contrast and readability. Panel mounting requires a standard 124mm wide × 44.5mm tall cutout (3.85″ × 1.75″ imperial). Operating temperature range extends from -26°C to +60°C (-15°F to +140°F), and the unit weighs 18-22 ounces in its compact form factor.
Typical Applications
The Redington P32-1026 counter is widely used in manufacturing and process control environments where mechanical, non-powered counting is required. Common applications include:
- Production line part counting and batch monitoring
- Packaging and labeling equipment totalization
- Machine cycle counters for preventive maintenance scheduling
- Industrial process control and gate counting
- Equipment runtime and cycle tracking
- Motor or compressor start-stop logging
