Portable Pulse Counter

PPC-2

The SSI PPC-2 Portable Pulse Counter is a modern handheld field tool for testing a meter’s KYZ pulse outputs, designed as an upgrade to the PPC-1B with full Form C (3-wire) support and rechargeable battery operation. It supplies its own 6VDC wetting voltage to the meter’s Y and Z dry-contact outputs and counts closures from either one or both sides of the KYZ output — supporting both Form A (2-wire) and Form C (3-wire) pulse output devices from a single device.

The PPC-2 is housed in a rugged ABS handheld enclosure with a rubber protection boot, and comes with three color-coded banana jack test probes — Red (K), Yellow (Y), and Black (Z) — for quick, unambiguous connection to the meter. Its 8-digit display shows counts up to 99,999,999 and can be manually reset at any time. A rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides 40 hours of operating life, with recharging via an included 12VDC wall transformer or automobile cigarette lighter cord.

Product Highlights

The PPC-2’s ability to count both Form A and Form C outputs simultaneously — or independently — makes it the more capable field option compared to the PPC-1B, which tests only one side of a Form C output at a time. Its rechargeable battery eliminates the cost and availability concerns of disposable batteries, and the 40-hour runtime easily covers a full week of typical field work on a single charge.

The rubber protection boot and ABS handheld form factor are specifically designed for utility and metering fieldwork, where dropped or bumped equipment is a real-world concern.

Features

The SSI PPC-2 is a rechargeable-battery handheld pulse counter for Form A and Form C KYZ testing, with an 8-digit display, 40-hour run time, and color-coded K, Y, Z test probes.
  • Form A and Form C KYZ testing — counts closures from one or both sides of the KYZ output simultaneously; tests both 2-wire and 3-wire devices.
  • 8-digit display with manual reset — maximum count of 99,999,999; manually resettable at any time in the field.
  • Built-in 6VDC wetting voltage — supplies sense voltage to Y and Z outputs; compatible with electromechanical and solid-state relay outputs.
  • 40-hour rechargeable battery — lithium-ion battery; recharges in approximately 5 hours via wall transformer or cigarette lighter adapter.
  • Color-coded test probes — Red (K), Yellow (Y), Black (Z) banana jack probes for unambiguous connection to KYZ terminals.
  • Rugged ABS enclosure with rubber boot — handheld form factor designed for field durability and drop protection.
  • Dual charging options — 12VDC wall transformer or automobile cigarette lighter cord included.
