Absolute shaft encoders

Single turn absolute encoders are designed for industrial and professional applications.

• External metal casing
• Good protection to environmental conditions (dust, oil, moisture)
• Made with stainless steel shaft and bearings
• LED light source with 100.000 hours minimum life
• Max. number of divisions/revolution is 65536 equal to 16 bits (varies from model to model)

Accurate design engineering and extended at high and low temperatures assure high reliability.

This series of transducers have two matched encoders: absolute and incremental. Typical application of these encoders is the keying on “Brushless” motors in which the “absolute” section describes the motor’s strokes.

• Max. incremental resolution is 2.540 pulses/rev.
• Max. absolute resolution is 256 divisions/revolution equal to 8 bit (varies from model to model)

The ME90 transducer is the only model available for the “coded incremental” series. For this model is possible choice the max number of pulses / revolution to be multiplied by 1, by 2 or by 4. In addition to the number of pulses / revolution, different outputs are available: 6 decades (999999) in BCD code version; 24 bits (16777216) in binary or Gray version.

•  Incremental encoder with internal counting circuitry
• Its low power consumption allows it to be used with a portable battery to continue operating even in the event of a blackout
• Low purchase cost

These features make this encoder a valid replacement of multiturn absolute encoder.

This series of transducers are shaft encoders which give absolute measurements on more than one revolution of their shaft. Made with a system of mechanical reductions which transmits the movement of its main disc to a series of secondary discs for shaft revolution counting. An electronic circuit cancels any mechanic backlash of the gear train, thus yielding a detection’s. They are mechanically strong and properly engineered in their electronics, optical and mechanic parts, being thus able to withstand heavy duty conditions.

Thanks to the certifications ATEX II 2 G Ex d II C T6 Gb e ATEX II 2 D Ex tb III C T85°C Db IP6X according to CENELEC rules and CESI, this series of absolute encoders can be used in working environments with explosive atmosphere due to gas and / or dust (except for mines with grisù).

• Made with stainless steel shaft and precision bearings
• The models are extremely sturdy
• *On request this encoders can be completely stainless steel

The transducers of the “PROFIBUS” series they are absolute rotary encoders with an interface to connect to field bus systems according to the “PROFIBUS” standard. This series of transducers is available in two version: singleturn or multiturn. The multiturn version is made with a system of mechanical reductions which transmits the movement of its main disc to a series of secondary discs for shaft revolution counting. An electronic circuit cancels any mechanic backlash of the gear train, thus yielding a detection’s. They are mechanically strong and properly engineered in their electronics, optical and mechanic parts, being thus able to withstand heavy duty conditions. Very good quality/price ratio.

The transducers of the “CANopen” series they are absolute rotary encoders with an interface to connect to field bus systems according to the “CANopen” standard. This series of transducers is available in two version: singleturn or multiturn. The multiturn version is made with a system of mechanical reductions which transmits the movement of its main disc to a series of secondary discs for shaft revolution counting. An electronic circuit cancels any mechanic backlash of the gear train, thus yielding a detection’s. They are mechanically strong and properly engineered in their electronics, optical and mechanic parts, being thus able to withstand heavy duty conditions. Very good quality/price ratio.

The transducers of the “DEVICENET” series they are absolute rotary encoders with an interface to connect to field bus systems according to the “DEVICENET” standard. This series of transducers is available in two versions: single turn or multiturn. The multiturn version is made with a system of mechanical reductions which transmits the movement of its main disc to a series of secondary discs for shaft revolution counting. An electronic circuit cancels any mechanic backlash of the gear train, thus yielding a detection’s. They are mechanically strong and properly engineered in their electronics, optical and mechanic parts, being thus able to withstand heavy-duty conditions. Very good quality/price ratio.

The transducers of the “PROFINET” series they are absolute rotary encoders with an interface to connect to field bus systems according to the “PROFINET” standard. The models with 2 flanges Ø58 mm can be supplied in single turn or multiturn version. he multiturn version is made with a system of mechanical reductions which transmits the movement of its main disc to a series of secondary discs for shaft revolution counting. An electronic circuit cancels any mechanic backlash of the gear train, thus yielding a detection’s. They are mechanically strong and properly engineered in their electronics, optical and mechanic parts, being thus able to withstand heavy-duty conditions. Very good quality/price ratio.
