AFS60B-THAA008192 Sick AFS/AFM60 SSI Series Absolute Encoder, 8192 ppr, SSI Signal, 15mm Shaft

Overview_x000D_ At a glance_x000D_ High-resolution absolute encoder with up to 30 bits (AFM60) or 18 bits (AFS60)_x000D_ Face mount flange, servo flange, blind hollow shaft or through hollow shaft_x000D_ SSI, SSI + incremental or SSI + sin/cos interface_x000D_ Resolution, offset, etc. can be programmed (depending on the type)_x000D_ Connectivity: M12 or M23 male connector or cable connection_x000D_ Enclosure rating: IP67 (housing), IP65 (shaft)_x000D_ Operating temperature: –40 °C ... +100 °C (depending on the type)_x000D_ Your Benefit_x000D_ The programmability of the encoder results in reduced storage, high machine availability, and easy installation_x000D_ Precise positioning thanks to high resolutions_x000D_ Large selection of mechanical interfaces and electrical contacting options: suitable for all applications_x000D_ Suitable for applications with limited space (extremely short installation depth of 30 mm)_x000D_ Excellent concentricity properties due to long bearing distance_x000D_ Suitable programming tools are available as accessories for every application_x000D_ With a high resolution of up to 18 bits (AFS60) or up to 30 bits (AFM60) and a large selection of programmable parameters, the AFS60 absolute singleturn encoder and the AFM60 absolute multiturn encoder set new standards when it comes to rotary encoders. The high resolution combined with the high IP protection class enables use in a multitude of industrial applications. Both encoders are equipped with the SSI interface while the AFM60 is also available with the SSI + Incremental and SSI + Sin/Cos combined interfaces. A shaft bearing distance of 30 mm means the AFS60/AFM60 product family has significantly better rotation accuracy than encoders with blocked ball bearings. Yet despite their large bearing distance, the AFS60/AFM60 have a compact design. Programmable variants of the AFS and AFM60 SSI can be programmed via the same PC-based programming tool (PGT-08-S) or the hand-held PGT-10-Pro programming tool._x000D_ Applications_x000D_ Measurement of absolute position using one or more revolutions in various machines and systems such as tool machines, packaging systems, wood processing machines, presses, printing machines_x000D_ Shelf assignment_x000D_ Measurement of press stroke with absolute encoder_x000D_ Height adjustment of press stroke_x000D_ Pitch motor control_x000D_ Blade angle monitoring_x000D_ Azimuth motor control_x000D_ Azimuth motor control_x000D_ Speed measurement on the elevator engine_x000D_ Speed and position monitoring of elevator cars with encoders_x000D_ Position determination of high speed gates_x000D_ Heliostat – tracking in concentrated solar power plants_x000D_ Damper positioning at duct system_x000D_ Inlet and outlet damper position at main fans_x000D_ Position of ladle furnace roof during second metallurgy process_x000D_ Roof position detection at vacuum degasser during secondary metallurgy_x000D_ Reactor vessel position detection at Ruhrstahl-Heraeus degasser_x000D_ Inlet and outlet damper position for main fans_x000D_ Note_x000D_ Product details cover the whole product family.
