Product Description:

The SH2-256-5-1N Encoder Sensor is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat. It is designed for high-precision position feedback in automation systems. The unit features a compact and durable design built for industrial use. The sensor weighs approximately 0.3 lbs or 0.14 kilograms. Its dimensions are 10.0 cm in length, 4.5 cm in height, and 3.0 cm in width.

The SH2-256-5-1N sensor is an incremental magnetic type with a defined resolution. It supports 256 pulses per revolution, ensuring accurate shaft positioning. The unit is equipped with a sturdy aluminum housing for mechanical protection. It includes integrated electronics on a curved PCB for signal processing. This device typically operates on a supply voltage of 5 VDC. Current consumption stays under 100 mA under normal operation. The SH2-256-5-1N sensor offers differential output signals in standard TTL format. It is compatible with many Indramat drives and control modules. The output signals include channels A, B, and Z with their complements. The device maintains stable signal transmission even under high-speed conditions. It supports ambient temperatures from 0°C to +60°C during operation. Storage conditions allow for -25°C to +85°C temperature range. Relative humidity must remain between 5% and 95% non-condensing.

The SH2-256-5-1N sensor can operate at elevations up to 1000 meters above sea level. It withstands vibrations up to 10 Hz–58 Hz at 0.15 mm amplitude. Shock resistance is up to 30 g for durations of 11 ms. Shielded cables are required to ensure noise-free signal transmission. The mounting hole and shaft bore allow secure installation onto drive assemblies. The sensor's metal shielding helps protect internal circuits from external interference. It is suitable for closed-loop control systems in industrial environments. It ensures consistent performance in high-vibration and electromagnetic interference zones.
