POSITAL IXARC Heavy-Duty Incremental and Absolute Rotary Encoders

POSITAL's IXARC heavy-duty incremental and absolute rotary encoders are based on a housing design that has a 25-year record of surviving the toughest conditions.

• Features extra rugged impact-resistant Type 316L stainless-steel or aluminum housings
• Seals rated to IP67
• Available in wide variety of configurations 
• High mechanical shaft loads (up to 250 N Axial, 350 N Radial)
• High shock and vibration impact (200G and 20G Respectively)
• Optional mechanical overspeed switch can provide additional safety by sending warning signal to a motor control if rotational speed of shaft exceeds a pre-set limit
• Operating temperature range is -40-80 C (-40-176 F)
• Shaft-lock mechanism protects internal components 
• Dual-function models with incremental and absolute outputs available
• Incremental versions have resolutions of up to 2,500 PPR (pulses per revolution)
• Absolute versions are available with 16-bit resolution (0.005 degrees)
• Multi-turn variants of absolute encoders have measurement ranges as high as 16,384 revolutions (14 bit)
• Other resolutions are also available for both incremental and absolute encoders
• Incremental variants are available with Push-Pull (HTL) or RS422 (TTL) communications interfaces, while absolute models can be provided with either CANopen or SSI interfaces
• Dual-function models are available that provide both incremental and absolute outputs
