Switching cam encoder NOCN

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document details the NOCN model electronic digital switching cam encoder, suitable for stationary and mobile machinery like wind turbines and cranes. It features up to six electronically controlled switching outputs and an integrated absolute multiturn encoder with a CANopen interface.
Design: The encoder is encased in robust, seawater-proof aluminum or stainless steel, featuring a shaft with ball bearings for angular position recording and a multiturn transmission for absolute revolution counting. The main chamber houses electronic components for position recording and output.
Technical Specifications:
  • Mechanical Data: Operating speed up to 1000 rpm, angular acceleration of 105 rad/s², and a shaft load of 250 N axial and radial.
  • Electrical Data: Operating voltage range from +11 VDC to +28 VDC, resolution of 12 or 13 bits per revolution, and a measuring range of 4096 revolutions.
  • Environmental Data: Operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, shock resistance of 250 m/s², and vibration resistance of 100 m/s².
Switching Outputs: The encoder uses mechanical relays and PhotoMOS semiconductors for switching processes. Outputs are galvanically separated and can be parameterized via CANopen objects.
Interface CANopen: Integrates into the CANopen network, supporting various modes and profiles as per CiA standards, including emergency messages and heartbeat signals.
Order Code and Variants: Detailed order codes are provided for different configurations, including housing material, flange and shaft design, and galvanic separation options.
Additional Features: Includes fault monitoring, a bootloader function for firmware updates, and various parameterization options for specific applications.
Specifications: The encoder's switching outputs, controlled by relays and PhotoMOS semiconductors, are galvanically separated from the operating voltage and CANopen bus. Outputs can be parameterized via the CANopen bus using specific objects according to CiA, DS 406, rev. 4.01.
Parameterization: Each switching output can be individually set using CANopen objects. The document lists objects for setting low and high limits, hysteresis, and enabling or disabling cams. Switching behavior can be inverted, and relays deactivate when the operating voltage is cycled.
Connector Configurations: Describes three versions of galvanic separation for connectors: V1 (full separation), V2 (partial separation), and V3 (no separation). V1 is recommended for maximum EMC resistance and data transfer security. Pin assignments for standard and custom configurations are provided.
Installation and Materials: Installation drawings and dimensions are provided for model NOCN58-KP. Materials include an aluminum housing, stainless steel shaft, and nickel-plated brass connectors.
Recommendations: For maximum voltage ratings and connector configurations, refer to specific pages as indicated. Emphasizes using the recommended version V1 for optimal performance and safety.
Programming Examples: Includes CANopen output with a resolution of 4096 steps per revolution, example programming for relays and cams with specific angle values and revolutions, and customization options according to customer specifications.
Accessories: Play-compensating toothed gear ZRS for mechanical drive without play, various couplings, and securing clamps available with specific data sheets.
Key Notes: Installation recommendations include specific torque and adhesive requirements. Programming allows for customization of switching outputs and CANopen signal presets.

Switching cam encoder NOCN-7

Switching outputs Function The function of the switching outputs (cams) is implemented by means of relays and PhotoMOS semiconductors. The relays provide changeover contacts and the PhotoMOS semiconductors provide normally open contacts (NO). All switching outputs are galvanically separated in terms of operating voltage and the CANopen bus.

Switching cam encoder NOCN-8

Electronic digital switching cam encoder model NOCN Switching outputs Parameterisation of the switching outputs (cams) Each of the switching outputs can be parameterised via the CANopen bus. To achieve this, a range of objects is assigned to each switching output in the CANopen profile according to CiA, DS 406 revision 4.01. These objects enable each switching output to be set individually: Object 6310: Low limit Cam 1 > Cam 1 switches on in this position (relay picks up) Object 6320: High limit Cam 1 > Cam 1 switches off in this position (relay drops off) Object 6330: Hysteresis Cam 1 > Switching...
