Product Description

The AI2512141C92F is an absolute optical encoder that offers precise position input through a serial synchronous interface. It is made by Danaher, a renowned name in industrial automation field. It is designed to generate binary output with resolutions of either one turn or many turns. The encoder can be connected to a variety of control systems that require precise input.

The AI2512141C92F has an absolute optical sensing system that gives a 12-bit precision for positions with one turn and multiple turns. There are 24 bits of precision, which includes both single-turn and multi-turn data. At ±½ LSB and ±1 LSB for levels higher than 13 bits, linearity is kept. The mechanical accuracy is ±0.01° and the precision is ±0.002°. Many different types of control tools can work with the encoder's binary output format over SSI. It is also possible to get sin/cos analog outputs with 2048 pulses. The voltage range for the input is 10 to 30 VDC. Each output bit can send 60 mA and has to short-circuit safety. The output code is binary. For both 5V and 10–30V bands, the current needs are 100 mA for single-turn and 150 mA for multi-turn. The maximum load that can be put on the scanner is 30 mA. The fastest speed is 500 kHz, and the longest wire that can be used is 400 meters. The encoder meets the noise and electrical protection standards of EN61326-1 that makes it suitable for use in industrial automation.

The AI2512141C92F features additional features, including alarm and warning bits that facilitate state monitoring. These bits generate an alarm when the LED current exceeds a certain threshold, and they transmit a warning when the temperature exceeds a certain threshold. Standard compliance makes sure that the encoder works reliably with set electrical settings and keeps the signal quality stable.
