Incremental Encoder for I/46C Motors

Aluminum casing | Weight 100g | 6-8mm stainless steel shaft | Bearing life 1.5 x 10⁹ revolutions | Impact resistance 50g | Operating temperature 0-70°C | Pulses/revolution 1-5000 PPR | Max frequency 60kHz | Push-pull output | Power supply 5V/12V/24V

The I/46C solves the need for compact, high-resolution encoders in motor environments, facilitating direct mounting thanks to its integrated spring seal and precise mechanical tolerances according to UNI ISO standards.

Its electronics support resolutions up to 5000 PPR with flexible 5V, 12V, or 24V power supply. The Push-Pull output ensures clean signals for standard Line Driver or TTL controllers in servo and stepper systems.

Constructed of aluminum with long-life bearings (1.5×10^9 revolutions), it withstands vibrations of 12G and impacts of 50G within the operating temperature range of 0 to 70°C. Available in guemisa.es.

  • Configurable resolution up to 5000 PPR per revolution for high precision.
  • Lightweight aluminum casing with a reduced weight of only 100 grams.
  • Standard IP63 environmental resistance and IP65 option for total protection.
  • Compatibility with Push-Pull, TTL 7404 and Line Driver 26LS31/88C30 outputs.

Technical Frequently Asked Questions

How does the I/46C differ from the A/942XS model in the absolute series?

The I/46C is an incremental sensor with resolution up to 5000 PPR and an aluminum housing, while the A series offers absolute output. Weighing only 100g compared to larger models like the I/58M, the 46C provides a compact solution for standard motors.

What alignment precautions are required for the I/46C shaft during assembly?

The compensating joint allows axial ±0.2 mm and radial ±0.15 mm, but the maximum load of 0.5 kg must be respected to avoid damage to sealed or standard bearings during assembly. Precise shaft alignment is recommended.

What connectors and output options are available for the I/46C?

Cable end (CV) or terminal block (VM) connectors are offered, with NPN, PNP, Push-Pull Pro or TTL 7404 outputs, plus 26LS31 and 88C30 Line Driver options for flexible integration into industrial systems.
