Overview
The ZeroErr eCoder11 is an axial-reading magnetic absolute encoder with RS485 versions for single-turn or multi-turn absolute value measurement. Select 17-bit or 19-bit resolution configurations. The multi-turn version is available with or without a multiturn counting battery.
Features
- 11 mm through-hole design for routing mechanical structures, cables, air lines, and similar items through the encoder.
- Non-contact multi-turn absolute operation is available with the multi-turn RS485 option.
- RS-485 protocol compatibility with Tamagawa absolute encoders.
- 8-pin connection; the encoder board has two top-edge connectors and one bottom-edge connector.
- Programmable zero position stored in internal EEPROM.
- Point-by-point position compensation is programmable and storable on the 19-bit multi-turn configuration.
- Specified for use in dust, heavy oil contamination, high- and low-temperature, and complex electromagnetic environments.
- Designed for convenient installation and controllable accuracy, with a precision positioning reference for fast, accurate installation.
Options
- Single-turn RS485: 17-bit or 19-bit resolution; multiturn counting battery not included.
- Multi-turn RS485: 17-bit or 19-bit resolution; multiturn counting battery not included or included (two pieces per pack).
- 19-bit multi-turn RS485: up to 19-bit resolution, 216 counting revolutions, stated repeatability of ±15âł, and programmable, storable point-by-point position compensation.
