The Model A36S with SSI output is a heavy-duty absolute rotary encoder with robust magnetic technology and standard SSI (RS422) interface. It is available as a single-turn encoder with up to 12 bits of resolution (4096 steps per revolution), or as a standard multi-turn with a range of 225 (12-bit (4096) words/turn +13-bit (8192) turns). These encoders are used in a wide variety of position sensing applications for the measuring of angles and distances. Mechanical features include a 36 mm aluminum housing, a 6 mm stainless steel shaft, and precision ball bearings.
