Why Choose the Unitronics EXF-RC15 High-Speed Remote I/O Module?

The Unitronics EXF-RC15 is a powerful high-speed remote I/O module designed for demanding industrial automation applications requiring fast counting, pulse generation and distributed control. As a stand-alone remote I/O solution, it connects directly to compatible Unitronics Vision controllers via UniCAN CANbus communication, eliminating the need for a separate adapter module.

The EXF-RC15 combines 9 digital inputs, 4 high-speed transistor outputs and 2 relay outputs in a compact DIN rail-mounted unit. With support for high-speed counters, shaft encoders, PWM and PTO functions, it is ideally suited to machine control, motion applications, packaging equipment and industrial automation systems requiring precise timing and positioning control.

Designed for flexibility and performance, the EXF-RC15 offers reliable communication, simple installation and seamless integration into Unitronics automation architectures, making it an excellent choice for OEM machine builders and control engineers.

Key Advantages

  • Standalone high-speed remote I/O module requiring no separate adapter.
  • 9 digital inputs including 3 high-speed counter inputs.
  • 4 high-speed transistor outputs supporting PWM and PTO functions.
  • 2 relay outputs for switching external loads.
  • Direct integration with Unitronics Vision PLCs via UniCAN CANbus.
  • Suitable for encoder feedback, motion control and pulse applications.
  • Compact DIN rail-mounted design for industrial control panels.

Key Features

  • Unitronics EXF-RC15 High-Speed Remote I/O Module.
  • 9 digital inputs.
  • 3 high-speed counter inputs.
  • 4 NPN transistor outputs.
