The GEL 2701, 2710 and 2712 multichannel rotary encoders were specially designed for the requirements of the rail vehicle industry. The rotary encoder was designed such that it supplies independent output signals for different control system electronics such as motor speed sensing, anti-skid protection, train control and rolling distance measurement. Depending on the requirements, up to 8 output channels can be configured. The measuring scale is of robust design so that it can even withstand extreme impacts and vibration.

Advantages
  • Solution individually tailored to the specific application, as numerous combinations of channels and pulse numbers possible
  • Due to the flexible design the rotary encoder is not only ideal for new projects, but also excellently suited to upgrades
  • Maintenance-free, durable operation in the harshest ambient conditions due to selected bearings and a magnetic measuring system
