SIKO WH58MR Absolute Safety Rotary Encoder

With the WH58MR, SIKO is presenting an absolute safety rotary encoder with a hollow shaft.

• Can be fitted with hollow shaft of 10-15 mm (0.4-0.6 in.) open on one side as an option
• External diameter of 58 mm (2.3 in.)
• Includes M12 plug (single or with BUS IN/BUS OUT), and variants available with a cable outlet or customized plug connectors
• Resistance to UV and high shock and vibration loads
• Optional salt-spray-resistant housing available
• Features protection type IP67
• Based on PURE.MOBILE technology platform, meaning it meets EMC requirements for construction, forestry and agricultural machines, requirements of E1, and is based on wear-free, magnetic sensing technology
• Can be equipped with additional functions, such as an integrated tilt sensor, DIP switches for configuration or digital inputs and outputs
• Can be configured as single-turn or multiturn variant
• Measurement range of 4,096 revolutions (12-bit multiturn) is broken down into 16,384 steps (14 bits) per revolution
• Use of extremely reliable gear allows multiturn to capture information and continues delivering position values reliably for years, in contrast to battery-powered or self-contained multiturn technologies
• Temperature range of -40-85 C (-40-185 F)
• Two galvanically separated sensor units record positions entirely autonomously
• Absolute position and speed are continuously sent to control system through interface
• Choice between CANopen Safety, redundant CANopen or redundant SAE J1939 interface
• Can be used for applications up to performance level “d” (PLd as per EN ISO 13849)
