Kübler has introduced a line of Profibus-DP programmable multiturn absolute encoders, now available with the M12 eurofast quick disconnects and overmoulded mating cordsets. The M12 eurofast quick-disconnect offers higher performance, lower cost to enable fast and reliable installation.
These encoders are available in both a shaft and large bore hollow shaft construction with a Class 2 Profibus-DP fieldbus communication protocol and 25-bit resolution (8192 per turn and 4096 turns). Profibus-DP permits the communication between devices produced by various manufacturers without the need to adapt the interfaces. Profibus-DP is a bus system that has been optimised in terms of speed and low connection costs for quick data exchange at the field level.
The encoders incorporate intelligent sensing technology (IST) and integrated technology (IT). 'IST' and 'IT' are non-contact design and construction technologies using custom ASICs with all components mounted on a single PCB. Enhancing performance over traditional methods of construction enables shock loads up to 250 gs, high resistance to EMI, high reliability and long life. This model is suited for applications in and around drives, clutches and brakes.
