Turck RI360P-QR24 non-contact inductive universal encoder

The RI360P-QR24 is a non-contact inductive universal encoder with high-resolution, wear-free operation, which is at the same time immune to magnetic fields.

The sensor and the positioning element of the encoder are fully encapsulated and therefore designed as two independent and fully sealed units that work together without contact. Any vibration or shock from the shaft is not passed on to the sensor. With a high degree of protection to IP69K and over 18-bit resolution, machine downtimes and maintenance times resulting from encoder wear are eliminated, even with high-precision and high-speed applications.

Turck has developed a new parameterisation and mounting concept for the encoder. This turns the RI360P-QR24 into a universal encoder for any standard industrial application. Users can parameterise the device either as an incremental, multiturn or singleturn encoder. This variant allows operators to also set output signals, switch points and measuring ranges individually via IO Link.

Turck also offers a high-resolution variant with an SSI output, a Modbus and voltage/current version, as well as an encoder compliant with the e1 specification, for use on mobile machines. The mounting concept of the encoder also extends its application range - adapter rings enable the encoder to be fitted on all standard shafts with diameters up to 20 mm.
