Advantages
POSITAL’s contact free measurement technology has no moving parts and is highly resistant to shock and vibration. POSITAL’s kit encoders are available with several non-proprietary electrical interfaces including BISS and SSI for absolute measurements. Additional protocols based on the RS485 interface can be implemented.
- Absolute Multiturn & Incremental Interface
- Electrical Interface: BiSS C, BiSS Line, SSI, RS485
- No Battery – No Maintenance
- No Ball Bearings & Compact Design
- Insensitive to Dust and Moisture
- High Shock and Vibration Resistance
Upgrade Your Existing Motion Control Application
Making your transition from incremental to absolute position sensing easy, POSITAL provides a full line of versions that are mechanical drop in replacement for common US Digital and Broadcom (Avago) incremental kit models.
- Same Footprints as E5 and HEDS-5500 Models
- Various Hub Diameters from 4 mm to 10 mm (and 1/4 to 3/8 inch)
- Identical Assembly Procedure - No Training Required
- Magnetic Technology Which Is Generally More Robust Than Optical
- Improved Connectivity via M12 Connector Additional Available
Energy Harvesting – No Battery
The energy harvesting system is based on the Wiegand effect and eliminates the need for backup batteries or complex gear systems.
Plug and Play
A built-in self-calibration capability can compensate for small sensor-to-shaft alignment errors.
