Engine tests are now even expanding to vehicle testing on the road (RDE). AVL has developed a new optical encoder 366C that is much smaller, lighter and has less inertia than its predecessor. It has been designed to enable a precise and reliable acquisition of the rotating shaft characteristics. It monitors angle marks on a revolving shaft and transmits them via a fiber optic cable. The Angle Encoder 366C is designed for the shaft end and is ideal for use in the test cell as well as in-vehicle. Why You Need an Angle Encoder The use of an angle encoder in a test cell is a standard application. Today’s customer expectations are “plug and play”: Easy installation of the encoder, precise and secure measurement of many different values in parallel and highly resolved and reliable data acquisition – these are requirements for all engine types no matter whether they originate from a passenger car, heavy duty vehicle, race car, or two-wheeler. The Angle Encoder 366C offers you highly accurate results. Thanks to its fiber-optic signal transmission, the mechanics are neither influenced by high temperature nor by high vibration or electrical interference. Additionally, it can operate at loads of up to 500 g permanently, and 1,000 g temporarily. This means that you can use it with the utmost confidence, whatever your application.
