Product description: Optoelectronic Rotary Encoder MOL40
Durable optical encoder for industrial applications
The MOL40 series is a robust optical incremental encoder designed for a long lifetime with a 40 mm metal housing and a mechanically stable ball bearing. Thanks to its high resolution of up to 5000 ppr, it is ideal for precise position measurements. The high cut-off frequency of up to 300 kHz allows reliable signal processing, even at higher speeds.
The signal is transmitted via various output options:
- Push-pull (totem pole) or open collector: Flexible integration into control systems
- Voltage output: Direct connection to analogue circuits
- Line driver: Differential signal transmission for interference-free data transmission over longer cable runs
Thanks to the radial 2 m connection cable with optional plug connection, the MHL40 can be easily integrated into existing systems. The maximum speed is up to 5000 rpm, whereby the usable number of pulses is limited by the cut-off frequency of 300 kHz.
Options:
- Pulse numbers: 10, 50, 100, 256, 360, 500, 1000, 1024, 1200, 1500, 1800, 2000, 2048, 2500, 3000, 3600, 5000 rpm
- Shaft diameter: 6 mm, 8 mm
- Output electronics: Push-pull, open collector, voltage output or line driver
- Operating voltage: 5 VDC or 12-24 VDC
- Electrical connection: 2 m cable or 250 mm cable with plug
