Rotary incremental encoders

April 2010 Motion Control & Drives

Instrotech’s range of rotary incremental encoders has been in use in the toughest environments where precision is required under high mechanical stress.

Known for durability due to a heavy duty zinc diecast housing with waterproof connector, the encoders are available in both through hollow shaft and solid shaft. An ideal application is for belt weigher’s with pulley and counter weight to run under the belt. Both single channel, for speed measurement, and dual channel with reference pulse, for quadrature positioning, are available.

Resolution is a maximum 1024 pulses/revolution and the encoder provides various electronic outputs such as PP, LD, LD24 and OC to ensure compatibility with connecting devices.

The Siko model 1G07 has through hollow shaft diameters of up to 20 mm, while the IG17 solid shaft unit diameters are up to 16 mm and also offered in an IP68 version as an option.
