Wire absolute encoder WPS with fieldbus interface

Wire transducers series WDS are composed by the draw-wire mechanics coupled to Elap multiturn absolute high-resolution encoder MEM-BUS or MEM. They can provide different communication protocols – EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, PROFINET, Profibus, CANopen or SSI output signal. The encoder grants high resolutions values (28 or 29 bit) and strokes ranging from 3000 to 15000 mm. The housing is out of aluminium, whilst the wire consists of coated poliamide stainless steel.

Stout, easy to install, highly protected against environmental agents: ELAP wire encoders series HLS are the ideal solution for those industrial applications which require high accuracy and measuring length up to 12 metres. The encoder HLS is available with strokes ranging from 1000 to 12000 mm, and resolutions ranging from 0.04 to 1 mm, push-pull or line driver output signal. The types HLS-S, HLS-M and HLS-L differ for mechanical size and measuring stroke. Series HLS-S: 1000 mm – Resolution mm: 0.04 – 0.1 – 0.2 – 0.5 – 1 Series HLS-M: 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000 – Resolution mm: 0.05 – 0.1 – 0.2 – 0.5 -1 Series HLS-L: 6000, 7000, 8000, 9000,10000, 11000, 12000 mm – Resolution mm: 0.5 – 1

The range of square-flanged incremental encoders includes the series RE620, with centering mask diameter 31.75 mm, compatible with the international standard SIZE25, and the series RE650, with centering mask diameter 50 mm. Both the types are housed in a metal case. The connection type and position can be chosen among different options, as well as the output signal formats and the shaft diameters. The pulses per revolution number ranges from 2 to 12500. The zero reference pulse option is available for both series (type RE621 – RE651).

The encoders series MEM can be supplied in single or in multiturn version, with high resolution values: up to 13 bits info/revolution (corresponding to 8192 info/rev.) x 15 bits rev. (corresponding to 32768 rev.), in binary or Gray code. The multiturn encoders provide the SSI serial output signal, while the singleturn type offer two output options: SSI or push pull parallel signal. Several mechanical versions are available to satisfy all application requirements: round flange, square flange, hollow shaft, with different options for the shaft diameter and connection position and type.
