Product catalog summary
Overview: The Draw Wire Encoder System DWS 60 is designed for absolute and incremental measurements with a range of up to 1500 mm. It features easy installation, variable encoder options, and a high-flex stainless steel wire.
Mechanical Specifications: The system is constructed with an aluminum body and stainless steel measuring cable. It has a drum circumference of 150 mm/turn and a cable diameter of 0.60 mm. The standard linearity is ±0.05% full scale, with a maximum velocity of 10 m/s and acceleration of 20 m/s². It is rated IP64 for protection and operates in temperatures from -20° to +85°C, weighing approximately 1 kg.
Electrical Specifications: The system supports various output types including current, incremental, SSI, and voltage outputs. Each type has specific supply voltage requirements, current consumption, and output characteristics. For example, the current output operates at 20 to 30 VDC with a 4 to 20 mA output current, while the incremental output supports a pulse frequency of up to 100 kHz.
Connections: The encoder system provides multiple connection options with different pin configurations and cable color codes for current, voltage, incremental, SSI, and parallel outputs.
Ordering Code: The ordering code is structured to specify the group function, measurement type, output circuit type, basic series number, connection type, resolution, measuring length, connector location, linearity, and output signals. Special functions and designs are indicated by a code at the end of the part number.
Additional Information: The document includes details on geometry and dimensions, available in various file formats. For custom requirements or further assistance, consultation with the regional office is recommended.
