Rotary Position Sensor Line Guide - Honeywell Sensing and Control - #1

Text version of the page

Select Rotary Position Sensors. Firmly positioned as the leader. The Honeywell Sensing and Control (S&C) Rotary Position Sensor lineup is comprised of encoders, potentiometers, and precisioncrafted resolvers. Our Encoders are available in both mechanical and optical versions, and are best for potential applications requiring panelmounted, manually-operated rotary sensing. Potentiometer Sensors utilize precision technology developed for potential military applications. Our proprietary conductive plastic offers extensive temperature range and infinite resolution, and is designed to provide precision position measurement. Resolvers are offered in pancake, brushless, and canned styles. Honeywell S&C is one of a handful of companies offering this highly precise sensor technology. But that’s what you’d expect from an industry leader. FEATURES ENCODERS 388E Series. Features: Mechanical encoder • Employs a 2-bit gray code with 16 or 24 positions • Multiple sections (up to six) • Various bushing and shaft sizes • Several mounting styles • Rugged horizontal or vertical mountings with support plates • Nickel-plated brass shaft • Ultrasonic welded, gold-plated terminals for strength. Benefits: Operates as a compact, dustfree incremental switching device. A positive detent feel, it can be combined with other modular switches that have push-pull, or momentary actions. Often used with local memory to store relative reference data regarding settings for functions in limited-space, panel-mount applications. Potential applications include audio and lighting controls, level control, cursor control, frequency control, temperature control, time control, and position sensing. Rotary Position Sensor Line Guide continued on page 7 510E Series. Features: Mechanical encoder • Employs 2-bit gray code with up to 36 positions or a 4-bit code • Cost effective • Eliminates need for A/D converters • Stability from -40 °C to 105 °C [-40 °F to 221 °F] • Positive detent feel • Continuous electrical travel • Horizontal and vertical mounting Benefits: Operates as a cost-effective, high-resolution incremental switching device. The “L” channel leads the “R” channel by 90° electrically in the clockwise position. Often used in limitedspace panel-mounted applications where the need for costly, front-panel displays can be completely eliminated. Potential applications include welding/heating equipment, sprinkler systems, manual controls, level control, cursor control, frequency control, temperature control, time control, and position sensing. 600 Series. Features: Optical encoder • Dual quadrature output generating 128 pulses per channel • Cost effective • Eliminates need for A/D converters • Stability from -40 °C to 65 °C [-40 °F to 149 °F] • Cable and printed circuit terminations available • Stainless steel shaft • Nickel-plated bushing • PC terminals and cable leads available • Outputs are TTL compatible Benefits: Enhanced life, no contact device capable of approximately 10 million revolutions. Outputs two square waves in quadrature at a rate of 128 pulses per channel per revolution as a standard with other resolutions down to 60 pulses available. Potential applications include robotics, welding/heating equipment, manual controls, motion sensing and control, motor and flow control, low-to-high input for test and measurement, medical and instrumentation, and computer peripherals.
