Rugged encoders fit into tight spaces

High-resolution analogue-output encoders are ideal for high-reliability and high-precision industrial-automation and process-control applications.

Micronor's new ENA361M (hollow shaft) and ESA361M (solid shaft) series high-resolution analogue-output encoders provide 12bit resolution with choice of analogue output - ideal for high reliability and high precision industrial automation and process control applications The units are extremely rugged with high levels of shock (500g minimum) and vibration (30g minimum) resistance

The products can be used in outdoor applications over wide temperature ranges and fluctuations (-40 to +85C) and protected against humidity and condensation.

Standard units are IP67 sealed with IP69K option available for use in high-temperature/high-pressure washdown applications.

These single-turn absolute encoders are offered with choice of 4-20mA or 0-10V output and measuring range options of 45, 90, 180 or 360 degrees.

These units also operate over a wide input power range of 18-30V DC.

The 4-20mA option includes a red LED fault indicator for sensor break detection and monitoring of power supply.

With an overall diameter of 36mm, these encoders are very compact and are ideal where space is tight.

The ENA361 series offers blind hollow shaft in range of 6 to 10mm along with either stator coupling or torque stop mounting options.

The ESA361 series offers solid shaft in range of 6 to 8mm along with standard synchro flange mounting.

Unit price is US $285-$415 (depending on options) in OEM quantities of 100 pieces with typical 3-4 week delivery. Request a free brochure from Micronor ...
