Features:
- 6 HP front width of approximately 30 mm
- DIN 41612 form F 48 M rack connector
- Approximately 320 g net module weight
The /06 designation identifies the narrow A6312 mechanical version. Its 6 HP front assembly must be matched to the available rack space rather than substituted by the wider /08 construction.
Two green channel-clear indicators and four yellow function indicators provide local status. The front panel also carries SMB signal access and the mini-DIN configuration connection.
Use the documented Euro-card mounting arrangement and provide appropriate cabinet ventilation. The selected slot, rack connector, supply source, and card marking should all be checked before insertion.
The Emerson A6312/06 Dual-Channel Speed and Key Monitor is listed as Active / Available from OEM. Apter Power supports official documentation and configuration review.

Transducer interface details
- Input channels: Two independent measurement paths accept separate shaft-related sensor signals.
- Sensor types: The monitor is documented for eddy-current measuring chains or Hall-effect sensors such as PR 9376.
- Sensor supply: Each channel has a 26.75 VDC sensor supply with ±2% tolerance and 35 mA maximum current.
- Frequency range: Input processing covers signals from 0 to 20,000 Hz for the configured speed or key function.
Configured monitoring functions
- Independent speed: The channels can monitor rotational speeds from two separate shafts.
- Independent key: Each channel can process a shaft reference pulse from its own trigger mark.
- Rotation direction: Combined channels compare phase-shifted marks to establish forward or reverse rotation.
- Speed difference: A paired-channel configuration can calculate the difference between two shaft speeds.
Available signal paths
- Current signals: Channel-related current outputs provide conditioned measurement values for connected monitoring equipment.
- Collector pulses: Open-collector paths make pulse information available for external logic interfaces.
- TTL pulses: Separate TTL outputs reproduce channel pulse information at the front signal connections.
- Service interface: The mini-DIN RS-232 connection supports configuration and visualization with the approved software.
Rack and commissioning checks
- Power source: Operate the module from the specified 24 VDC SELV/LPS supply arrangement.
- Card seating: Align the Euro-format PCB with the correct slot and fully engage the DIN 41612 connector.
- Air circulation: Maintain the documented cabinet clearance or cooling so rack temperature remains within the allowed range.
- Signal verification: Confirm sensor polarity, gap, trigger geometry, shielding, and channel configuration before enabling alarms.
