Product Description

The 2210003A46 is a new-generation encoder series built by Danaher automation as part of its effort to revolutionize automation systems. This encoder design is particularly suited for use in tough industrial applications like metal forming, wood cutting, and rubber processing factories where the measurement of mechanical motion and position is critical to production standards. The design of this encoder unit provides it with a high degree of resistance to vibrations and shocks. This encoder unit is also equipped with several features that are not available in conventional encoder design; these includes a significantly expanded operation resolution of between 8192 to about 10,000 pulses per revolution, a two-channel quadrature output with optional index, and an operation accuracy of ±10.8 degrees per pulse per revolution.

The 2210003A46 encoder unit features a phased Application Specific Integrated Circuit sensor technology that significantly reduces the number of board-level components in the encoder and significantly increases the product lifetime. Customers that purchase this encoder are guaranteed more than five years of top operation performance without the need for any maintenance operation. The 2210003A46 encoder operates with an electrical input voltage supply of between 10 to about 30 volts, and its minimum frequency response is also about 200 kilohertz.

The housing of the 2210003A46 converter unit is built according to the IP66 protection sealing category. This high degree of protection is perfectly suited for harsh industrial automation applications for which the encoder is intended. The maximum permissible operation speed featuring this converter is about 10,000 revolutions per minute, and the rated inertial of the encoder is also about 2.83 x 10-4 ounces per second. The total weight of this product is determined to be about 1.5 pounds.
