Product Description:
The Beckhoff KM3712 rotary encoder is a high-precision feedback device used for precise motion control in industrial automation systems. Part of the KM Bus Terminals line, this encoder has a 12 mm (Twelve millimeter) shaft diameter and produces 1024 pulses per revolution (PPR), making it perfect for uses needing consistent speed and position feedback. Operating on a 5V DC supply (Five volts of Direct Current), the KM3712 is designed to handle speeds of up to 6000 RPM, hence guaranteeing constant and responsive performance in dynamic motion applications. In small control cabinets or constrained installation situations, the radial cable exit connector enables effective wiring. Its IP65 protection level makes the encoder suitable for usage in severe industrial circumstances as it resists dust and water incursion.
Furthermore, this protection grade also protects this encoder from any other pollutants. Designed for smooth integration into Beckhoff's modular I/O (Input/Output) system, the KM3712 connects via the internal terminal bus (E-bus/K-bus), providing complete compatibility with current Beckhoff Bus Terminals, Bus Couplers, and Controllers. Installation simple and quick is its small size and tool-free, spring-loaded terminal wiring. The KM series shows Beckhoff's dedication to modular and scalable automation. It is a reliable option. This rotary encoder offers affordable system design under great performance by means of enhanced packing density and signal flexibility. Usage, like all Beckhoff gear, must to follow certain installation and safety policies and be done by competent automation experts. Now offered via Wake Industrial, the Beckhoff KM3712 provides a strong and adaptable encoder solution for sophisticated machine control and position feedback applications across a broad variety of sectors that include manufacturing, CNC, packaging, robotics, pharmacy, computers and so on.
