Counter information. Type MU115A made by ECCI

TF and the wire · Mar 23, 2013

Anyone know where I can find a datasheet or manual for a counter made by Electronic counters and control, a US company. Its a MU115A-1. i need to know the functions of the terminals on the unit. Tried Googling to no avail.

It is used to count sheets of cardboard coming off a machine and then to trigger a stacking cycle. The operator sets the number of sheets required using the thumbwheel. It has a digital display of the count. There must be a reset terminal and I assume there are a number of terminals that must be connected to live or neutral to program the unit for a particular application. I just need to know their functions.

Surely you can e-mail the manufacturer in the states and ask for a blueprint of the machines wiring system?

I have a good set of drawings for the machine, but they don't go into detail of the component parts such as these counters. I have to get any spares from the US via this manufacturer. I can't find anything on the internet regarding the manufacturer of the actual counter and the machine manufacturer has started sending an equivalent part, which is a different size and I have to make blanking plates etc. they are also quite expensive.

If I knew what each terminal did. I could get an equivalent part cheaper, quicker and easier from RS. I could have an educated guess as to what each terminal did by experimenting and working through the drawings but it would be a help if I had access to a datasheet.
