ABSOLUTE POSITION ROTARY ELECTRIC ENCODER INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION The VLX-64 is a member of the VLX series of Electric Encoders™, based on Netzer precision proprietary technology. The Electric Encoder™ offers many advantages - some unparalleled for the induatrial automation market. 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. • Hollow, floating shaft • Absolute position • No bearings or other contacting elements • High resolution and precision • High tolerance to temperature extremes, shock, moisture, EMI, RFI and Magnetic fields • Very low weight • Holistic signal generation • Digital interfaces 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 of Electric Encoder™ is a digital serial with absolute position single turn. The combination of precision, low profile, low weight and high reliability have made Netzer precision encoders particularly suitable to a wide variety of industrial automation applications. Angular resolution Supply voltage Maximum tested static error Maximum operational speed Measurement range Unlimited rotation Rotation direction Adjustable CW/CCW* Position measurement Absolute, single turn Operating temperature range Storage temperature Relative humidity Shock endurance Vibration endurance * Default same direction from bottom side of the encoder Mechanical Allowable mounting eccentricity Allowable axial mounting tolerance Rotor inertia Total weight Outer Ø /Inner Ø/ Height VLX-64-V02 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. Material (stator, rotor)
