Product catalog summary
Overview of Rotary Encoders: Rotary encoders are devices that provide position information by converting rotary mechanical movement into an electrical signal. This is achieved through an optical disc with opaque and transparent sectors, which, when rotated, allow light from LEDs to pass through and be detected by photosensitive diodes. The resulting analogue signal is amplified and converted into a square wave signal for processing.
Osicoder Encoders: The Osicoder encoders are innovative and simplified devices that support multi-protocol communication, particularly with Telemecanique PLCs and variable speed drives. They are designed for easy selection and setup, offering improved performance and robustness.
Key Features:
  • Open to Networks: These encoders are compatible with CANopen and PROFIBUS-DP, featuring simplified cabling and diagnostic LEDs.
  • Mechanical Flexibility: They offer modular hollow shafts ranging from Ø 6 to 15 mm and high performance with 14-bit resolution up to 8000 points per revolution.
  • Practical Parametering: A single product can adapt to various applications with resolutions adjustable via a dip switch, eliminating the need for software.
  • Robust Mechanics: The encoders feature a zinc alloy cover, stainless steel shaft, and sealed ball bearings, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion, mechanical shock, and vibration.
  • High-Performance Electronics: The optical element has a long life due to controlled LED emission, and the encoders offer high signal frequency up to 800 kHz.
Applications: These encoders are suitable for various applications, including packaging, cutting machines, automotive, machine tools, robotics, cranes, materials handling, and continuous process machines.
Product Variants: The document lists several models with different housing sizes, shaft diameters, resolutions, and output stages, catering to specific application needs.
Global Presence and Support: Schneider Electric offers a wide range of products available in over 130 countries, with technical assistance and a comprehensive range of accessories to simplify installation.

Principle of an optical encoder Mechanical + Electronic An encoder provides position information by transforming a rotary mechanical movement into an electrical signal (servo-system for counting, measuring, control loop…). Mechanically coupled to a driving spindle, its shaft rotates an integrated optical disc. The disc comprises a succession of opaque and transparent sectors. Light from light emitting diodes (LEDs) passes through the transparent sectors of this disc as they appear and is detected by photosensitive diodes which, in turn, generate an analogue signal. This signal is electronically...
