Explosion-proof Incremental Encoder I/0L80EXS
- Manufacturer: ELCIS Encoder
- Category: Encoder, Incremental Encoder, ATEX Explosionproof Incremental Encoder, SENSORS
In industrial environments with explosive atmospheres, conventional sensors pose an unacceptable risk due to internal sparking or surface heat. The I/0L80EXS Encoder eliminates this hazard through rigorous ATEX certification (Ex d II C T6/T5), allowing for safe installation in areas where flammable gases or conductive dust are handled without compromising the system's operational integrity.
The technical solution incorporates an anodized aluminum housing that efficiently dissipates heat, maintaining a maximum surface temperature of 100°C (T5) or 85°C (T6). The system offers a bearing life of 1.5 x 10^9 revolutions and withstands vibration peaks of 12 G, ensuring stability in heavy machinery with frequencies up to 2000 Hz without degrading the incremental signal.
Constructed with grade 8.8 screws and 100°C certified wiring, the device withstands shocks of 50 G x 11ms and storage temperatures between -30 and 85°C. Its robust mechanical design allows it to operate under extreme conditions without premature failure, making it a reliable component for critical industrial automation. guemisa.es.

- Vibration resistance of 12 G in the range of 10 ÷ 2000 Hz.
- Operating life of bearings of 1.5 x 10^9 revolutions.
Technical Frequently Asked Questions
What are the critical precautions when mounting the encoder on hollow shafts?
Ensure that the axial and radial alignment of the shaft does not exceed ±0.25 mm and ±0.05 mm respectively to prevent premature wear. Always use screws of at least grade 8.8 for mounting and verify that the wiring is connected to a cable with a minimum temperature rating of 100°C.
What types of connectors or terminals are compatible with this model?
The device supports multiple connection options, including terminal boxes (CV1) and specific connectors such as VM, TM, VL, and TL for standard or sealed output. For T6 environments, the optional non-breakable disk is recommended if required by the application, according to the manufacturer's specifications.
How does ambient temperature affect sensor performance?
The operating range is defined by protection class T5 (-20–60°C) or T6 (-20–40°C). The case surface can reach up to 100°C in T5 mode. It is essential to respect these limits to avoid damage to the internal electronic components and maintain current ATEX certification.
