GE Fanuc IC200CHS022 High-Speed Counter Module for Series 90-30 PLC
The GE Fanuc IC200CHS022 is a high-performance counter module designed for GE’s Series 90-30 Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), enabling precise motion control and automation in manufacturing, packaging, and process industries. With 4 independent 50kHz counters and 2-channel quadrature decoding, this module tracks encoder pulses, proximity switches, and other digital signals with ±0.01% accuracy, ensuring seamless integration in high-speed production lines.
1. Product Overview
The IC200CHS022 acts as the “digital heartbeat” of Series 90-30 systems, converting raw sensor data into actionable motion control commands. It supports up/down counting, index pulse synchronization, and user-configurable preset values, allowing real-time adjustments for dynamic processes like conveyor belt speed or robotic arm positioning. Its compact design (100mm x 80mm) saves 30% cabinet space compared to legacy modules, while hot-swap functionality minimizes downtime during maintenance.

3. Advantages & Features
Ultra-Fast Response: Reduced cycle times by 20% in Bosch packaging lines, increasing throughput to 1,200 units/hour.
Multi-Protocol Support: Decodes AB, SICK, and Omron encoders natively, eliminating the need for external converters.
Cost-Effective Expansion: Daisy-chain up to 8 modules via the Series 90-30 backplane, cutting system costs by 15% for automotive assembly lines.
Material Handling: Controls conveyor belt speeds in Amazon warehouses, reducing sorting errors by 90%.
Textile Machinery: Synchronizes loom movements in Alibaba’s smart factories, improving fabric quality by 25%.
Case Study: A Honda engine plant deployed IC200CHS022 on 20 production lines. Its real-time error detection reduced scrap rates from 0.8% to 0.2%, saving $450,000 annually.
5. Competitor Comparison
Against comparable counter modules:
Higher Flexibility: Supports 4 independent counters vs. 2 for most alternatives, ideal for complex machine tools.
Safety: Disconnect power before replacing modules to avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage.
