Incremental rotary encoder FGH 14

absoluteopticalhollow-shaft

The optical rotary encoders FGH 8 with a through hollow shaft up to Ø 80 mm are suited for speed monitoring and speed measurement under severe environmental conditions. Thanks to their flat design, they are ideal for attaching additional sensors such as speed switches, absolute encoders or a combination of these. In addition, there is the possibility of a redundant design with two identical scanning systems and evaluation electronics. The optical rotary encoders are attached directly onto the application shaft or to the application shaft by using a suitable adapter flange. Description The optical rotary encoders FGH 14 with a through hollow shaft up to Ø 150 mm are usually mounted directly onto the application shaft. Due to their flat design, they are suitable for the attachment of additional sensors such as absolute encoders, speed switches or a combination of these. Furthermore, there is the possibility of a redundant design with two identical scanning systems and evaluation electronics. The optical rotary encoders’ maintenance-friendly scanning system facilitates simple changeover without separating motor and gearbox. Reliable The optical rotary encoders of the FGH 14 series offer a very long service life and a very high level of reliability – even under harsh ambient conditions. Extremely robust, thick-walled housing High shock and vibration resistance Large bearings with high dynamic load rating Saltwater-proof, wet areas in rolling mills Compensation of large axial shaft movement Tailor-made The optical rotary encoders of the FGH 14 series offer a wide range of device and signal options and can be supplemented by the attachment of up to 4 further encoders.
