The OEL8G-K absolute encoder (formerly OGR8G-M1) produces a gray coded digital output with a resolution of 255 discrete counts in each direction. This contactless system uses optoelectronics to identify each position, which eliminates the wear usually associated with analog potentiometer outputs.
Overview
• Gray coded digital output with a resolution of 255 discrete counts in each direction, plus (2) directional bits
• Contactless system uses optoelectronics to identify each position, which eliminates wear
• Special shaft with sealed ball bearing
• 15 pin Sub-D connector
• Cable length with connector 1.6' [0.5M]
• LED for zero pulse operation
• High quality electronic design with high noise immunity
• All photoelectric LED principle on a chip, not discrete components
• Push button for setting zero
In addition to the 255 steps in each direction, the OEL8G-K has (2) directional bits and an LED to indicate zero position. The encoder seamlessly mounts to VNSO, VNS2, and NSO-SFA controllers via an adapter mounting plate, creating a heavy duty control solution for digital variable speed drives.
• Long life and high accuracy
