What it does

A simple, readable counter for conveyors and loaders. BC-0 uses two pairs of optical sensors beside the line: every bag that breaks the beam is counted on a 4 in display, and a potential-free contact switches at the preset count.

01
Two pairs of optical sensors for continuous-bag identification
02
4-digit 4 in display, readable from a long distance
03
Potential-free contact at the set count
04
MENU, UP, DOWN and RESET switches
05
Metal enclosure for dusty, rough atmospheres

Part of a system

Bag-counting & dispatch line

Bags counted at the loading point, with the count shown where the loading crew can see it. SMART bag counters sit on the chute, conveyor or loader and can stop the line at the set count.
