RL General Purpose and Heavy Duty
The model RL rotary shaft encoder comes with a 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", 8mm, 10mm, or 3/8-16 or 1/4-20 threaded shaft for heavy duty applications where a face mounted encoder is required. The rugged 3" diameter by 2-3/8" deep enclosure is constructed of 1/4" thick aluminum with a 5, 6, or 10 pin connector on the side.
Metric bolt holes are available - see M96 and M105 modifications below.
***Optional modification number (see modified versions table below)
***For other accessory options, see the accessories table below
Notes: * 120AC supply voltage and Triac output require the 3/8" single or double ended shaft.
Note: Not all features are listed. Some combinations are mutually exclusive.
Standard Features and Options
- Shaft: 3/8" x 1.25" length, single or double ended. 1/2" x 1.25" length. 5/8" x 1.25" length. 8mm x 32mm. 10mm x 32mm.
- Short-Circuit, ESD, and Surge protection are available
- CE Marked (specific models only)
RL-P Programmable Heavy Duty Shaft Encoder
The RL-P rotary shaft encoder directly couples to a rotating shaft and produces a specified number of square wave output pulses per revolution of the shaft. The number of pulses per revolution is determined by setting configuration switches accessible through an access port near the connector. Any one of a predefined set of pulses per revolution are available.
It comes with a 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", 8mm, 10mm, or 3/8-16 or 1/4-20 threaded shaft for heavy duty applications where a face mounted encoder is required. The rugged 3" diameter by 2-3/8" deep enclosure is constructed of 1/4" thick aluminum with a 5 or 6 pin connector on the side.
Metric bolt holes are available - see M96 and M105 modifications.
Standard Features and Options:
- Heavy duty bearings
- 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", Metric Shaft Diameters
- Double ended 3/8" shaft option
