Encoder is cost effective for simple tasks
The EL63D square flange incremental encoder is a general-purpose rotary motion encoder designed for simple speed, direction and/or position monitoring.
The integration of incremental position encoders in drive systems is made so easy - no matter whether it is used for speed measurement, positioning control or synchronisation either in new or existing drives.
With up to 16,384 pulses, the EGM offers the highest resolution available.
Moreover, the EGM is suitable for all the most popular IEC flange motors with sises between 56 and 90 and motor shafts up to 35mm.
The compact design (only 12mm thick) makes mounting easy and no mechanical modification is required for the assembly.
The Hall-effect sensor has no moving parts, enabling high speed rotation at up to 8000rev/min and making the EGM a completely sealed unit (IP68).
The unit has a wide operating temperature range from -40 to +85C and high resistance to shocks and vibrations, making it a rugged solution suitable for flange connections such as DC motors, hydraulic/compressed air motors, pumps etc.
