AMCI DuraCoder (Rotary Encoders)

Product catalog summary
Overview: AMCI's DuraCoder® brand encoders are designed for heavy-duty applications such as mill-duty and earth mining equipment. These encoders are known for their durability and strength, featuring a non-contact sensor design that avoids the use of sensitive optics or plastic gears.
Construction and Design: The encoders are available in aluminum or stainless steel, both offering an IP67 rating for full sealing. They come in solid shaft and hub shaft versions, with an oversized double row bearing supporting shaft loads up to 100 lbs radial and 50 lbs axial.
Specifications: The encoders are available in two body sizes: 2.5” diameter (DC25 & NR25) and 4.25” diameter (DC425). They operate within a voltage range of 12 to 26.4Vdc and a temperature range of -20°C to 85°C. Connection options include side or end connectors.
Mounting Options: Flange, Servo, and Hub mounts are available, with shaft diameters of 1/4”, 3/8”, 5/8”, and 10mm, and inner diameters of 3/8”, 1/2”, 10mm, and 12mm.
Output and Resolution: The encoders support various output codes and resolutions:
  • EtherNet/IP, Modbus-TCP: Single-turn = 16 Bits, Multi-turn = 30 Bits Max
  • Profibus-DP: Single-turn = 16 Bits, Multi-turn = 28 Bits
  • Binary, Gray Code: Single-turn = 12 Bits, Multi-turn = 24 Bits
  • Quadrature with index: 4096 cycles/turn max
  • Binary, Gray Code, BCD: Single-turn = 12 bits
  • Current or Voltage: Single-turn = 12 bits, Multi-turn = 16 Bits Max
Manufacturing and Quality: DuraCoder encoders are manufactured at AMCI’s headquarters in Terryville, CT, USA. The company emphasizes quality through rigorous research, design, and testing processes.
