Industrial encoders for dummies
US manufacturer BEI has teamed up with the iconic "For dummies" brand to produce an innovative tutorial guide on industrial encoders.
These units are designed to mate directly to commercially available coupling flange halves.
The 2000-700 units consist of strain gauge technology coupled with digital telemetry which provides a non-contact method of transferring the output signal.
Sensor capacity ranges from 20,000 ft.lbs to 60,000 ft.lbs.
This new design has a high level output at rated capacity of +/- 5 volts or 4 - 20 mA.
Non-linearity and hysteresis specifications of +/- 0.25% or better with a Repeatability of 0.05%.
The maximum speed of operation is 3.000 rpm.
In addition to the Model 2000-700CS Variohm can supply a complete range of rotary in-line and reaction torque sensors as well as fatigue rated and general purpose loadcells.
These products are ideal for precision measurement in R and D, manufacturing, process control and many other applications in a broad range of markets.
