Encoders & Rotary Transducers Features These sensor classes engage angle changes of rotating parts with highest precision. The measurement process of the Digital Encoders are based on periodic graduation marks that are available as incremental TTL, HTL, or absolute in terms of Bus Interfaces like Profibus or SSI. On the contrary analog Rotary Transducers are working by Potentiometers. ► Wide spectrum of output signals ► Solid shaft, hollow shaft and through hollow shaft ► Miscellaneous kinds of flanges ► ATEX variants ► Protection class up to IP67 ► Flange-mounting on wire rope mechanics
