AC61 Stainless Steel Absolute Rotary Encoder with CANopen

Hengstler AC61 stainless steel absolute rotary encoders developed with CANopen (Controller Area Network) fieldbus technology deliver a high level of transmission reliability and speed of data transfer. The CANopen network protocol, initially developed for automotive applications, is now prevalent in many areas of industrial automation.

The Hengstler AC61 absolute rotary encoder is built using high-grade stainless steel. It is exceptionally robust and suited to applications where high resistance to corrosion is required, for example, chemical areas, food production or marine applications.

Mounting options are a square flange and threaded fixing holes to the front and rear of the encoder, allowing for multiple mounting positions.

Resolutions of 16-bit single-turn and 12-bit multi-turn with shaft sizes of 9.52mm and 10mm with protection class ratings of IP67 are available.

The supply voltage is 10 to 30V DC. The bus covers with sealed cable exits are radial; cable exits are radial or axial.

Encoders are RoHS-compliant, UL-approved, and CE-marked.
