SICK AFS60, AFM60 and DFS60 Inox encoders

Click2Contact

Simple configuration and flexible programming options are important features of SICK encoders. Based on optical and magnetic technologies, the encoders offer solutions for a variety of different sectors.

With a high resolution of 18 bits (AFS60 Inox) or 30 bits (AFM60 Inox) and a large selection of programmable parameters, the AFS60 absolute single-turn encoder and the AFM60 absolute multi-turn encoder offer a high-resolution, high IP enclosure rating, and stainless steel housing, so they can be used in applications with harsh ambient conditions and strict requirements regarding resistance to aggressive media such as cleaning agents or salt.

The encoders are equipped with an SSI interface, while the AFM60 Inox is also available with combined SSI and incremental or SSI and sin/cos interfaces. Both encoders can be programmed via the PGT-08-S PC-based programming device or the PGT-10-Pro handheld programming device.

The DFS60 Inox is a high-resolution incremental encoder with a diameter of 60 mm in stainless steel design. It offers a large range of mechanical and electrical interfaces and can be programmed by the user if desired. The rugged mechanical design, the wide temperature range as well as the IP67 enclosure rating also make the DFS60 Inox a suitable encoder for applications in harsh ambient conditions. There is a large range of options for programming the electrical parameters, including the output signal level, the number of pulses per revolution and the zero pulse width.
