Robust multiturn absolute encoders
The robust multiturn absolute encoders AM… 40 and AM…H 40 can be deployed in a wide variety of applications to detect positions and rotational speeds in rolling and steel mills, in mining operations as well as in ports and crane systems. They provide precise information about the position of the shaft and the number of revolutions. The multiturn absolute encoders are used, for example, in hoist gear applications to determine the exact position at all times.
Additional encoders can be easily attached to the second shaft end.
Safe
The multiturn absolute encoders of the AM… 40 series are characterized by their thick-walled, robust housing, which very safely protects the state-of-the-art electronics.
- High speeds up to 6000 rpm (solid shaft) and 4000 rpm (hollow shaft)
- Encapsulated electronics protected even when terminal box is open
- All screwed connections are vibration resistant
- Positive connection with feather key / feather keyway
- UL/CSA certification
Reliable
The multiturn absolute encoders of the AM… 40 series offer a very long service lifetime and high availability due to their robust design.
