Magnetic Encoder P9500 - 18383 P9500

HIGH RESOLUTION INCREMENTAL ENCODER Features:

• Two Channel Quadrature Output • Wide range of standard magnet targets • Up to 1024 PPR @ 10K RPM • Rotary or linear measuring system • Higher pulse counts available • Operation from –25°C to 85°C • Operates in dirty environments • No Moving Parts Tachometer/Encoder Description:
The P9500 Series encoder is by design, a rugged cost-effective industrial grade product that usesmagnetic technology to address the weakness of the more frangible optical encoder counterpart. Intended for high-resolution applications, it functions as an incremental angular position encoder whenused with a multi-pole permanent magnet target wheel. Direction of rotation can be obtained from thetwo output channels that are 90° electrically out of phase. The final PPR count can be selected by thecombination of internal programing of the sensor and magnetic pole count of the permanent magnettarget. In linear applications, this sensor can also provide linear position information when used with a multi-pole permanent magnet strip instead of a magnet target wheel.Like other PAI Sensors, the magnetic / non-contact technology used in this sensor series providessuperior reliability in harsh industrial environments that contain dust, smoke, or lubricants. Greases,oils, steam / chemical wash-downs, machining chips, cutting fluids and most common industrial solvents have no effect on performance. No special considerations are required for flexible couplings,dynamic seals or bearing limitations since this sensor does not require these additional components andtheir associated cost additions.
