The precision encoders GEL 295x are designed as a modular, application-specific encoder system and consist of a housing component and modular sensor systems. All rotary encoders GEL 295x are manufactured to drawing or application description.
The series GEL 295x rotary encoders are extremely robust sensors for the measurement of rotary movements or positions on machines and vehicles.
Due to their high resistance to condensation, spray and condensed water, as well as the very wide temperature range, they are particularly suitable for use in rail vehicles or in heavy industry. The housing component is available with solid shaft or hollow shaft including an integrated flexible precision hollow shaft coupling.
The resilient encoder housing with a standard flange size of 115 mm is made of stainless steel.
Applications
- Rail vehicle industry – Traction monitoring – Electronic anti-skid protection – Motor rotational speed – Anti-slip protection
- Machinery and motors
- Heavy industry
- Metallurgy
- Composting plants
- Sewage treatment plants
Advantages of the magnetic system
- Solution individually tailored to the specific application, as up to 5 sensors can be integrated in one housing
- Maintenance-free, durable operation in the harshest ambient conditions due to selected bearings and a magnetic measuring system
- Highly resistant to condensation, spray, condensed water and aggressive chemical substances
