The Keyence RC-15 is a highly functional 1-level preset counter/timer designed to provide precise and adaptable measurement control in automated systems. Built with a 48-mm square, 6-digit, 7-segment LCD display, it delivers clear, easy-to-read results, making it ideal for operators working in various industrial environments. This unit combines both counting and timing capabilities in one device, offering exceptional versatility for a wide range of applications. The mode can be switched between counter and timer through a simple selector switch, eliminating the need for multiple separate devices and reducing installation complexity.

When used as a counter, the RC-15 supports addition, subtraction, and phase difference counting, enabling accurate tracking of events, rotations, or production quantities. For timing functions, it can operate in on delay, one-shot, flicker, and range distinction modes, providing flexibility for precise process timing. These advanced features ensure that the RC-15 can adapt to different control requirements, whether for production monitoring, machine cycle control, or quality inspection.

The unit also features multiple reset methods—manual, external signal-based, or automatic—allowing seamless integration into various control systems. For example, in counter mode, the automatic reset function ensures continuous and uninterrupted operation in repetitive tasks, while in timer mode, the flicker setting provides cyclic timing for repetitive on/off control sequences.

Engineered with industrial reliability in mind, the RC-15 runs on a DC power supply for stable and consistent operation. The rugged design ensures dependable performance even in demanding factory conditions, minimizing downtime and maintenance requirements. Its compact size and panel-mount compatibility make installation straightforward, saving valuable space on control panels.

In summary, the Keyence RC-15 is an excellent choice for facilities seeking a multi-functional, compact, and reliable counter/timer solution. Its wide range of operational modes, flexible function selection, and durable build quality make it ideal for applications across manufacturing, packaging, assembly lines, and other automated processes where precision and adaptability are essential.
