Product catalog summary
Mechanical Specifications
The SCA24 encoder features a brass housing and an electroplated steel cap, with an option for aluminum for flat cable configurations. The shaft is made of stainless steel, and the encoder weighs approximately 35 grams, with the cable adding 50 grams per meter. It supports a shaft speed of up to 12,000 rpm and a starting torque of less than 0.005 Nm at 25°C. The encoder can handle axial and radial shaft loads of up to 20 N.

Electrical Specifications
The encoder operates on an incremental code with a resolution range from 1 to 7500 pulses per revolution (ppr). It requires a supply voltage between 4.5 Vdc and 30 Vdc, with a maximum output current of 25 mA per channel. The frequency response is up to 200 kHz, and it features two-channel quadrature output with an optional index channel. The encoder is protected against reverse polarity and output short circuits and complies with EMC standards EN61000-6-2:2005 and EN61000-6-3:2007.

Environmental Specifications
The operating and storage temperature range is -40°C to +85°C. It can withstand shocks of 100 G for 11 ms and vibrations from 10 to 2000 Hz at 10 G. The enclosure has an IP rating of 64, with an option for IP 50 for flat cable configurations.

Connection Options
The encoder offers various cable options, including an 8-lead differential cable and a 5-lead standard cable, both shielded and twisted pairs. A 10-lead flat cable with an IDC connector is also available.

Output Waveform and Resolutions
The encoder supports multiple disk resolutions ranging from 1 to 7500 pulses per revolution, with specific tolerances for channel and phase differences.

Ordering Code
The ordering code for the SCA24 encoder includes options for output type, IP rating, connector type, shaft diameter and length, cable takeout, and cable length. Additional options are available upon request, and specific configurations are designed for wind power applications.
