The Model SST is a fully enclosed, short stroke linear encoder offering resolutions
of .000050”, .0001”, .001mm, .002 mm (when used with external 4X circuitry).
Designed for applications requiring a simple mechanical interface, the Model SST
is available with a spring loaded probe and a ball tip. This arrangement allows the
user to install and align the Model SST in a matter of minutes.
In its standard configuration, the Model SST is dust resistant, making it suitable for
use in relatively clean environments such as semiconductor wafer processing and
general metrology applications. For the harsh environments imposed by machine
tool and process control applications, the Model SST is available in a splash
resistant configuration. The Model SST’s complementary TTL compatible outputs
provide high immunity to ambient noise and are easily interfaced to multiplication
circuits and conventional up/down logic. An optional zero reference output can be
specified at the beginning or end of the travel or at 1” intervals throughout the
stroke length
