Serial Encoder - Rotary Encoder – Absolute Encoder

catalogue

ENCODER CATALOGUE

A publication containing the data sheets for all our incremental and parallel output rotary shaft encoders, a number of products to assist with encoder installation, an outline of the principles of encoder operation, and a summary of interface devices most commonly used with shaft encoders to expand and convert the signals to other logic formats.
   
ENC-HELP

TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE

An explanation of the principles of operation for shaft encoders, rotary encoders & serial encoders, a guide to mounting both solid and hollow shaft encoders and general installation precautions.
   
 

INSTALLATION ACCESSORIES

Data sheets for encoder mounting devices, including brackets, flexible shaft couplings and adapter flanges which provide direct replacement of other manufacturer’s encoder products.
   
ENC-IN-Shaft

INCREMENTAL SOLID SHAFT

Our encoders housing range in size from 28mm to 90mm diameter, with increments from 1 to 65,000 per revolution. Three of the series are assembled in Australia providing a 24 hour delivery for those emergency applications.
   
ENC-IN-HOLLOW

INCREMENTAL HOLLOW SHAFT

We have a selection of housings that will fit onto shafts ranging in size from 6mm to 100mm, the main advantage of this mechanical style is that it simplifies the shaft alignment issues.  The shaft is the actual mounting medium and there is just a simple tie rod between one hole in the housing and the equipment frame, to stop the housing rotating.
   
ENC-ABS-PAR-Solid

ABSOLUTE SOLID SHAFT PARALLEL OUTPUT

There is one wire required for each Bit of the output code however the exact position is always available even after power failure and movement while power is lost.  Models are available with Gray or Binary output codes, reading resolutions up to 16 Bits or 65,536 and housing 58mm and 90mm diameter.
   
ENC-ABS-PAR-Hollow

ABSOLUTE HOLLOW SHAFT PARALLEL OUTPUT

There is one wire required for each Bit of the output code however the exact position is always available even after power failure and movement while power is lost.  Models are available with either Gray or Binary codes, reading resolutions up to 16 Bits or 65,536 and suitable for shaft sizes from 6mm to 26mm diameter. We have a selection of housings that will fit onto shafts ranging in size from 6mm to 100mm, the main advantage of this mechanical style is that it simplifies the shaft alignment issues.  The shaft is the actual mounting medium and there is just a simple tie rod between one hole in the housing and the equipment frame, to stop the housing rotating.
   
 

ABSOLUTE SERIAL OUTPUT

This is a selection guide to the operation and use of the large range of Posital serial output encoders, there are single and multi-turn models to suit all the common industrial buss protocols, Profibus, Canbus, Devicenet etc, and both solid and hollow shaft housings. User installation manuals, software drivers, and mechanical drawing for each individual product are available from the selections following
