Monday, 02 July, 2012 | Supplied by: Motion Technologies Pty Ltd


The Elap WDS absolute multiturn pull-wire encoder features Profibus, CANopen or SSI outputs.

Measurement strokes from 3 to 15 m are available as standard, with resolution ranging from 0.6 to 1.5 mm. Special lengths of 30-50 m are available on request.

The WDS cable mechanism, constructed with an aluminium case with coated polyamide stainless steel pull wire, is built to suit harsh environments and temperature range -20 to +80°C.

Coupled with the MEM520 multiturn absolute encoder with 29-bit resolution, industry standard fieldbus protocols are now available for long-length measurement applications requiring absolute position feedback.
