Multiturn absolute rotary encoder TWK

Model TMN 50 is the world's first digital encoder with a maximum range of 32,768 revolutions (15 Bits). Its resolution ist 13 Bits per 360° which means a total capacity of 28 Bits. Besides the CANopen output data it supplies an additional speed signal. The outstanding performance is achieved by the Hall sensor technology along with a micro-processor and a counter circuit. A reset storage device restores the position value in case the supply voltage is cut off or lowered beyond 12 VDC, provided the shaft is not deflected by more than ± 90° during the interruption of the supply voltage.

The new encoder features a very robust and compact housing of 50 mm diameter and only 54 mm length. It has been designed for heavy duty applications such as cranes, transportation equipment or building machinery. It can also be supplied in stainless steel for use under aggressive ambiant conditions.
