Hollow shaft Ø10 H7, optional Ø6, 8 or 9.52 | Up to 65536 steps × 16384 revolutions | SSI (RS422), optional preset | 10–30 V power supply | IP65 shaft (IP66 sealed) | Star coupling, ±3 mm ax. | Gray code or binary

El ELCIS 990FS (A/990FS) es un encoder absoluto SSI multivuelta de eje hueco con acoplamiento interno patentado en forma de estrella (como el mod. 72), que absorbe hasta ±3 mm axiales, ±0,05 mm radiales y ±2° angulares, y ofrece hasta 30 bit en 16384 vueltas. Codifica en Gray o binario y transmite el dato por SSI (RS422), con reloj externo de 100 kHz a 1 MHz y opción de preset (S1). Monta carcasa de aluminio y eje hueco de acero inoxidable, con rodamientos sellados opcionales para IP66, trabaja entre -40 y +85 °C (-5…+70 °C con salida por cable) y resiste impactos de 30 G y vibraciones de 10 G.

As an SSI absolute encoder with a hollow shaft and patented internal star coupling (like the Mod. 72), the A/990FS absorbs up to ±3 mm of axial displacement, ±0.05 mm radial displacement, and ±2° angular displacement. It encodes position in Gray or Binary, with a resolution of up to 30 bits in 16384 revolutions, and transmits data via an SSI serial interface (RS422), with an external clock from 100 kHz to 1 MHz and a preset function option (S1).

It features an aluminum housing and a hollow stainless steel shaft, with optional sealed bearings for IP66, operates between -40 and +85 °C (-5…+70 °C with cable output) and withstands shocks of 30 G (11 ms) and vibrations of 10 G (10–1000 Hz).

  • Resolution of up to 30 bits in 16384 laps (Gray or Binary code).
  • Star coupling with axial compensation ±3 mm, radial of ±0.05 mm and angular of ±2°.
  • Serial interface SSI (RS422), with an external clock of 100 kHz a 1 MHz and preset function option.
  • Impact resistance of 30 G (11 ms) already vibrations of 10 G (10–1000 Hz).

Technical Frequently Asked Questions

What compensation does the star coupling of the A/990FS allow?

According to the manufacturer, the coupling allows a maximum compensation of ±3 mm axial, ±0.05 mm radial and ±2° angular.

What resolutions does the A/990FS offer?

Up to 30 bits in 16384 turns, with steps per turn of 4096, 8192, 16384, 32768 or 65536, in Gray or Binary code.

How is the position transmitted and what is the difference between SL and S1?

Via SSI serial interface (RS485/RS422): the value is stored in the encoder and transmitted starting with the most significant bit using an external clock from 100 kHz to 1 MHz. The (S1) version adds a preset function compared to the (SL) version.
