Better prices, availability for fieldbus
encoders
InterBus-S, Profibus-DP and CAN-bus interfaces are available on a range of single and multiturn absolute encoders, up to 32-bit, from Encoder Technology
Encoders that are universally adaptable for different fieldbus networks do provide instant flexibility but at a high price For cost-sensitive applications, a different approach is therefore required and thanks to recent changes at Encoder Technology, this company is now able to provide a wide range of dedicated fieldbus encoders at attractive prices and ex-stock

Encoder range covers all requirements
One of the main benefits of the new MEH series of hollow shaft encoders from Encoder Technology is its exceptional breadth making it a product suitable for all levels of sophistication.
The Encoder Technology fieldbus encoders are the latest models whose production has been transferred from Germany to ET's new manufacturing plant in Surrey.
Their UK manufacture has considerably shortened response times and also permits special requirements to be incorporated without introducing unrealistic delays.
InterBus-S, Profibus-DP and CAN-bus interfaces are available on a range of single and multiturn absolute encoders, up to 32-bit, with fixed or user-programmable codes to give Gray, Natural Binary, BCD, Gray Tree and Binary Tree options.
One of the most popular models is the EA58 which can specified for each of the three fieldbus systems.
This compact and heavy-duty industrial model has a housing diameter of 58mm and a shaft diameter of 6 or 10mm.
Its resolution specifications are max 25 Bit = 33,554,432 steps at 4096 revolutions. Request a free brochure from Encoder Technology ...
