EPC MA58H absolute encoder for harsh environments

Jul. 17, 2017 – Encoder Products Company (EPC) says its new model MA58H absolute encoder is designed for harsh factory and plant floor environments.

Describing it as heavy duty, rugged and reliable, the hollow-bore absolute encoder is available in both single and multi-turn resolution. As an absolute encoder, it is suitable for applications where an encoder needs to retain position information after power-off scenarios. The absolute encode features: multi-turn resolution up to 39 bits; up to 14 bits of single-turn resolution; SSI and CANopen communications; 58-mm diameter housing; bores sizes up to 3/8″ or 14 mm; and an operating temperature range of -40 to 85 degree C.
