In 2026, we began supplying the new version of the Junior-D model with a 6-digit display, a direct evolution of an indicator conceived, designed, and tested for real industrial counting—not for laboratory demonstrations or overly optimistic catalogs.
The novelty is easy to explain: two more digits compared to its predecessor.
The importance of the change, however, is only understood by those who work with continuous industrial processes, where stopping a machine because the counter has reached its limit is not an anecdote, but an operational problem.
Two more digits in industrial counting are not a minor detail
In industrial automation, counting is not decorative. It means traceability, production control, predictive maintenance, and very often, billing.
The new Junior-D allows:
- Industrial counting / totalization
- Direct display up to 999,999
- Extended totalization up to 9,999,999,999
- Industrial tachometer
- Stable reading up to 999,999
This eliminates a practice that is far too common in industrial environments:
forced resets, artificial scaling, or additional PLC logic just to compensate for display limitations.
Here, industrial counting adapts to the production process—not the other way around.
An industrial indicator for different industrial realities
One of the historical strengths of the Junior-D is its ability to integrate into heterogeneous industrial automation systems, something this new version keeps fully intact.
It accepts real industrial signals, not “ideal cases”:
- High AC voltage (10 to 600 V) directly from the machine
- Industrial magnetic sensors
- NAMUR sensors commonly used in heavy industry
- Standard industrial NPN and PNP sensors
- Industrial encoders TTL / 24 V
- Dry contact for simple industrial applications
With operating frequencies of up to 25 kHz, accuracy of ±(0.01% of reading + 1 digit), and a minimum frequency of 0.01 Hz, the Junior-D covers everything from slow industrial counting to high-speed signals without auxiliary electronics.
This is key: fewer components, fewer failure points, greater industrial reliability.
More industrial counting capacity, the same robustness
Increasing the number of digits has not meant sacrificing the device’s philosophy. The Junior-D remains a clearly industrial indicator:
- Universal industrial power supply 20–265 V AC / 11–265 V DC
- Low power consumption (3 W)
- IP65 front panel, designed for dust, moisture, and rough handling
- Standard industrial format 92 × 45 mm
- Two industrial relays (2RE) up to 8 A
- Compliance with CE, EN 61010-1, and EN 61326-1
In short: more industrial counting information without weakening overall reliability.
Industrial setpoints that work in production
The Junior-D retains its industrial setpoints, with operating modes designed for real industrial automation:
- Independent
- Stop
- Reset
- Clear
No confusing configurations or opaque logic. Direct access to values, parameter locking, and factory reset are designed around a basic plant-floor premise:
the device must be usable without turning the operator into a programmer.
Which industrial applications is this Junior-D suited for?
This 6-digit Junior-D is aimed at those already working with:
- Continuous industrial counting
- High-volume production lines
- Industrial systems without frequent stoppages
- Accumulation of cycles, parts, or real pulses
- Industrial processes where the counter must not dictate control logic
If industrial counting has never limited you, you may not need it.
If you have ever had to “invent” a reset because the display could not go any further, this version is designed exactly for you.
Industrial evolution, not disruption
We are not introducing a new product just to change names.
We are presenting a coherent industrial evolution, compatible with existing installations and aligned with how industrial production works today.
The Junior-D grows because industrial counting has grown.
And because in industry, it is still cheaper to measure correctly than to fix things afterward.
