Special Incremental Encoder I/159
- Manufacturer: ELCIS Encoder
- Category: Encoder, Incremental Encoder, Special Series Incremental Encoder, SENSORS
This incremental encoder is designed for demanding industrial environments where robustness is critical, such as when cutting sheet metal, wood, or glass. Its construction allows it to withstand the vibrations and mechanical loads typical of heavy machinery without compromising counting accuracy.
The technical solution lies in its cantilevered metric wheel that pivots on a sintered lubricated bushing, ensuring highly robust operation. The integrated electronics offer multiple output and power supply configurations, adapting to different control needs without compromising the sensor's mechanical integrity.
The construction uses an anodized aluminum base and cover for heat dissipation and corrosion resistance, along with an 11mm diameter stainless steel shaft capable of withstanding radial and axial loads of up to 10 kg. This Special Incremental Encoder I/159 is available in guemisa.es.
- Stainless steel shaft Ø11mm for high radial and axial load up to 10 kg.
- Cantilevered metric wheel pivoting on sintered lubricating bushing.
- Lifespan of ball bearings greater than 1.5 x 10^9 revolutions.
- Impact resistance of 50 G and vibration of 12 G across a wide frequency range.
Technical Frequently Asked Questions
How does the I/159 differ from the standard E00 model?
The I/159 belongs to the Special series, designed for extreme loads and heavy industrial environments with a cantilevered metric wheel. The E00 model is a standard incremental version with lighter configurations. The I/159 prioritizes mechanical robustness (Ø11mm axle, 10kg load) over compactness.
What alignment precautions does the I/159 shaft require?
Since it supports up to 10 kg of radial and axial load, proper alignment of the Ø11 mm stainless steel shaft is critical to prevent premature wear. It is recommended to ensure installation free from excessive lateral stress and to adhere to the operating temperature limits between 0 and 70°C.
What connectors and output options are available for the I/159?
The model offers multiple connection configurations, including 7-pin (IP65), 10-pin, or 12-pin connectors with IP66/IP67 protection. Outputs include standard PNP, open-collector NPN, push-pull, and 26LS31 or 88C30 line driver outputs, adapting to different control circuits.
