01 · The essential

Shaft angle within 5 arc-minutes

The unit mounts on the end of a rotating shaft. It connects strain gages, thermocouples or other rotating sensors through up to ten circuits, and at the same time gives pulses for rotational velocity and angular position. The zero-circuit version is the precision encoder alone.

The optical encoder has two outputs of 512 pulses per revolution in quadrature, which give the direction of rotation, and a third output of 1 pulse per revolution, the index used as reference for angular position. Shaft position is true within 5 arc-minutes, which matters for torsional vibration, instantaneous velocity and angular position. Analog position and speed signals are available with Michigan Scientific's frequency-to-voltage encoder electronics.

Standard models have color-coded solder terminals on the rotor and the stator. Weatherproof models take terminals or a military-style connector on the rotor; the stator terminals are sealed with a rubber boot or with 3145 RTV silicone. The bearings are lubricated for life.
