Low cost and rugged electromagnetic
encoders

A new range of rugged noncontact and low-cost encoders comes in four models: absolute 9bit serial, absolute 9bit parallel, sine-cosine 360-degree and incremental 128pulse/rev.

A new range of rugged noncontact and low-cost encoders comes in four models: absolute 9bit serial, absolute 9bit parallel, sine-cosine 360-degree and incremental 128pulse/rev In the absolute serial interface model, absolute angle information derived by the encoder is converted into serial information by the internal electronics and then transmitted to a receiving electronic circuit synchronised with a clock

This provides the twofold advantages of a low number of data lines and high reliability.

The resolution is remarkably high, given the package size of the encoder.

The main body of the encoder is 22mm diameter with an overall height of 19mm and protection up to IP67.

The separate magnetic actuator is in stainless steel with bores from 4 to 10mm.

All four devices are ideal for hostile environments, and with a one off price of around GBP 100 make good economic sense in a wide variety of applications. Request a free brochure from Encoder Technology ...
