Industrial encoder has both incremental and absolute outputs
As part of its range of Leine & Linde industrial encoders, McLennan can supply ruggedised shaft encoders that provide a dual electrical output with two incremental outputs or combined incremental and absolute outputs. The Leine & Linde RSD525 series offers options of TTL, HTL or RS422 incremental output and single- or multi-turn absolute SSI output to 25 bits. The absolute encoder is available with a preset zero position, or the datum reference can be set from an input or a pushbutton fitted to the case of the encoder. These dual encoders are typically used where both absolute high-precision angular position and incremental speed is required in the same motion control application but where space constraints or cost and convenience prescribes the choice of a combination encoder.
The encoders feature a highly durable construction with IP67 ingress protection (IP66 for the shaft inlet) and high resilience to shock and vibration, and with long life with low maintenance over an operational temperature range of -40degC to + 70degC. Other Leine & Linde industrial encoders available from Mclennan include ATEX versions, extra robust encoders with HTL, TTL or RS422 electrical output, encoders with built-in advanced diagnostics and dual-redundant encoders for extreme levels of safety and reliability.
