Product catalog summary
Overview: The RM22 is a compact, high-speed rotary magnetic encoder designed for harsh environments. It features a non-contact, two-part design that eliminates the need for seals or bearings, ensuring long-term reliability and easy installation. The encoder consists of a magnetic actuator and a separate encoder body, with the actuator's rotation sensed by a custom encoder chip.
Specifications: The encoder provides resolutions up to 13 bits (8,192 positions per revolution) and supports high operational speeds. It offers output signals in industry-standard absolute, incremental, analogue, or linear formats. The encoder body is 22 mm in diameter and offers dirt immunity up to IP68.
Product Range: The RM22 series includes various models such as RM22AC (analogue), RM22BC (complementary analogue), RM22DC (BiSS C interface), RM22IC (incremental), RM22SC (SSI), and RM22Vx (linear voltage output). Each model has specific features and output formats.
Installation and Compliance: Power must be supplied from a DC SELV supply complying with EN (IEC) 60950. EMC compliance requires correct integration, particularly in shielding arrangements. The encoder is designed to meet relevant EMC standards.
Environmental and Electrical Specifications: The encoder operates at speeds up to 30,000 rpm and temperatures from -40°C to +125°C (IP64) or -40°C to +85°C (IP68). It has a power consumption of 30 mA and supports various output types with specific signal amplitudes and offsets.
Applications: The RM22 is suitable for marine, medical, print, converting, industrial automation, metalworking, motor control, and instrumentation applications.
Important Notes: The product is not intended for use outside specified environmental limitations and operating parameters. It is not designed for medical, military, aerospace, automotive, or oil & gas applications without specific agreement from the seller.

Data sheet RM22D01_05 Issue 5, 19th January 2023 RM22 rotary magnetic encoder The RM22 is a compact, high-speed rotary magnetic encoder designed for use in harsh environments. The non-contact two part design removes the need for seals or bearings ensuring longterm reliability and simple installation. The encoder comprises a magnetic actuator and a separate encoder body. Rotation of the magnetic actuator is sensed by a custom encoder chip within the body, and processed to give the required output format. The encoder chip processes the signals received to provide resolutions to 13 bit (8,192 positions per revolution) with high operational speeds. Output signals are provided in industry standard absolute, incremental, analogue or linear formats. The compact encoder body is just 22 mm in diameter and provides dirt immunity up to IP68. Non-contact, frictionless design High speed operation to 30,000 rpm Compact - 22 mm diameter body Complementary analogue outputs with a single sine/cosine cycle per revolution Absolute - to 13 bit (8,192 positions per revolution) BiSS C interface with up to 8,192 counts per revolution and optional revolution counter. Industry standard absolute, incremental, analogue and linear output formats Simple installation The RM22 can be used in a wide range of applications including marine, medical, print, converting, industrial automation, metal working, motor control and instrumentation. Product range RM22AC Analogue with a single sine /cosine cycle per revolution Incremental with 80 to 2,048 pulses per revolution (320 to 8,192 counts per revolution with x 4 evaluation) RM22SC Synchro serial interface (SSI) with 320 to 8,192 positions per revolution RM22Vx Linear voltage output in a ran
