Posital Heavy-duty encoders for severe environmental conditions

These heavy-duty IXARC incremental and absolute rotary encoders are built to stand up to extreme environmental conditions. The sensors feature impact-resistant Type 316L stainless-steel or aluminum housings with seals rated to IP67. Features include bearings that can stand up to mechanical shaft loads up to 250 N axial and 350 N radial and the ability to stand up to high shock and vibration impact (200 g and 20 g, respectively). A shaft-lock mechanism protects internal components from damage resulting from extreme thrust loads on the shaft. The operating temperature range is -40 to 80 °C.
