Electromechanical Pulse Counters are durable, maintenance-free devices designed to record and display the total number of electrical pulses received from sensors, switches or control systems. Using a proven electromagnetic stepping mechanism, these counters provide a permanent, tamper-proof indication of events, cycles or process counts. Built for industrial reliability, they operate without batteries or data loss and are ideal for long-term monitoring in control panels, production equipment and OEM systems. Charter Controls supplies a full range of electromechanical pulse counters designed for precision, longevity and simple installation.
