Optical encoder has higher accuracy
An
EAO product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team
Aug 7, 2007
A more accurate optical encoder with integrated pushbutton enhances accuracy by providing more data points to measure changes in shaft position.
EAO has introduced a more accurate optical encoder with integrated pushbutton.
The Series 61L encoder, which features a one quadrature cycle per detent, enhances accuracy by providing more data points to measure changes in shaft position.
The company said that the Series 61L will provide a trouble-free one million rotational cycles even in the harshest conditions.
The optional pushbutton allows it to be used in applications involving menu choice and selection.
The Series 61L's higher accuracy makes it suitable for equipment requiring high rotational sensitivity, including precision test and measurement equipment and medical applications.
EAO also recommended it for any applications within challenging environments including military and avionics communications equipment.
It is RoHS compliant and tested to MIL-STD-202.
Switch and control specialist, Grayhill, represented in the UK by EAO, manufactures the Series 61L.
EAO can customise the Series 61L for uses such as the following.
* Optional shaft and panel sealing.
* Multiple termination and cabling options.
* Integration into a Grayhill custom front panel assembly.
