Product Introduction
The Yokogawa AAP149 Pulse Input Module is a high-performance input interface designed specifically to acquire and process pulse-type signals from field devices such as flow meters, encoders, and position sensors. As part of Yokogawa’s advanced input/output module range, it offers reliable and high-speed signal capturing for critical industrial processes that depend on accurate event or flow counting. It is ideally suited for systems within power generation, water management, oil and gas, and other process automation sectors.
The AAP149 excels in applications where precision timing and frequency detection are paramount. The module supports a wide range of pulse types—open collector, contact, and voltage pulses—and provides galvanic isolation between channels and the backplane to ensure signal integrity in electrically noisy environments.
