The SG121 wire-actuated encoder is suitable for measuring lengths up to 12 m. Its robust aluminum housing is coupled with impact-resistant plastic, so it survives harsh operating conditions. It can handle temperatures between -40 and 80 °C, high shock and vibration loads, dirt, dust and water. For outdoor applications in low temperature ranges, a version with integrated water drain holes also is available. This prevents water that has penetrated the sensor from freezing at below-zero temperatures. The flexible 58-mm flange system can be used with almost any interface, be it an incremental or absolute interface.
