Product catalog summary
Overview: The DF-150 is a rotary electric encoder designed for harsh environments, utilizing Netzer Precision's proprietary technology. It offers a low profile, high precision, and resistance to environmental extremes, making it suitable for critical applications like medical equipment and aerospace.
Mechanical Specifications: The encoder features a hollow, floating shaft with no bearings, allowing for a low profile of 13 mm. It has a rotor inertia of 427,882 gr·mm² and a total weight of 307 grams. The outer diameter is 150 mm, inner diameter 110 mm, and height 13 mm. It is made of aluminum with a nominal air gap of 0.6 mm.
Electrical Specifications: The encoder operates on a 5V supply with a maximum cable length of 1,500 mm. It supports digital interfaces with analog Sine/Cosine outputs and can be processed internally or externally for digital outputs.
Environmental Specifications: The DF-150 can operate in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C and can be stored between -50°C and +100°C. It has a relative humidity tolerance of 98% non-condensing, shock endurance of 100 g for 11 ms, and vibration endurance of 20 g from 10 to 2000 Hz. It is rated IP 40 for protection.
Performance: The encoder offers an angular resolution of 18-20 bits with a maximum static error of ±0.010° and extended accuracy static error of ±0.006°. It supports a maximum operational speed of 1,500 rpm with unlimited rotation range and adjustable rotation direction.
Interface and Communication: The encoder uses Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI) and BiSS-C Interface for data transmission, supporting clock frequencies from 0.5 to 2.0 MHz. It includes advanced calibration and monitoring options via Electric Encoder Explorer software.
Cable and Connection: The encoder uses a 30 AWG twisted pair cable with a braided shield and silicon rubber jacket. It supports various interconnection options, including flying leads and connectors.
Ordering Information: The product line includes options for extended accuracy, custom outputs, and built-in test features. The ordering code specifies interconnection, output type, and resolution.

Absolute Position Rotary Electric Encoder - DF-150 Data Sheet-1

ABSOLUTE POSITION ROTARY ELECTRIC ENCODER HARSH ENVIRONMENT The DF-150 is a member of the DF series of Electric Encoders™, based on Netzer precision proprietary technology. The Electric Encoder™ offers many advantages - some unparalleled • Low profile (13 mm) • Hollow, floating shaft • No bearings or other contacting elements • High resolution and precision • High tolerance to temperature extremes, shock, moisture, EMI, RFI and Magnetic fields • Low weight DATA SHEET The Electric Encoder™ is unique in being holistic, i.e., its output reading is the averaged outcome of the whole area of the rotor, This feature makes the Electric Encoder™ forgiving to mounting tolerances, mechanical wander etc. The absence of components such as ball bearings , flexible couplers, glass disc, light sources and detectors, along with very low power consumption makes the Electric Encoder™ virtually failure free. The internally shielded, DC operated Electric Encoder™ includes an electric field generator, a field receiver, a sinusoidal shaped dielectric rotor, and processing electronics. The output signals of Electric Encoder™ are analog Sine / Cosine representing the rotation angle. The digital outputs are obtained by further processing - which may be either internal or external to the encoder. • Holistic signal generation • Digital interfaces The combination of precision, low profile, low weight and high reliability have made Netzer Precision encoders particularly suitable to a wide variety of critical applications including, but not limited to medical equipment and aerospace.
