Incremental Hollow Shaft Encoders

Baumer's newHS35 family ofincremental hollow shaft encoders includes a fully-programmable version, forheavy-duty positioning and speed control applications. Available in an IP67version, these rugged encoders withstand shocks up to 200g, high-pressurecleaning and ambient temperatures from -40 to +212F. The encoders' opticalscanning system has positioning with accuracy to 60 arcsececonds. Baumer HS35encoders are available in programmable square wave, square wave and sine waveversions.

Baumer HS35encoders are available for shaft diameters from 0.5 to 1.0 inches and can becustomized further via shaft insert adapters. These isolation shaft insertsprovide electrical isolation against voltages up to 2.5 kV, preventing bearingcorrosion and wear. The encoder's ShaftLock system with its large diameterbetween ABEC5 bearings allows the shaft to reliably endure high mechanicalloads even at speeds up to 5000 rpm and 60 arcsec or better accuracy.

The heavyduty design of the HS35 encoders includes durablecastings and wall structures that withstand long-term exposure to harshenvironments. Dual seals, lubricants and a durable powder coating on thebearing housing and cover effectively protect against corrosion and allowoperation in nearly all environmental conditions. In IP67 versions, highperformance impermeability seals protect against high pressure wash down.Tether mounting allows for easy installation. The HS35P offers fully-programmableresolution, index and outputs, allowing customization and minimizing encoderinventories. The resolution is PC programmable to between 1 and 8,192 ppr inincrements of one. Zero pulseposition/width, HTL/TTL outputs and rotational direction are also programmable.The encoder can be programmed directly via the supply line using theuser-friendly software.
