Sick ACS/ACM36 Series Absolute Absolute Encoder, Analogue Signal, Solid Type, 6mm Shaft

The ACS36 (single turn) and ACM36 (multitier) encoder families have an analogue interface with a maximum resolution of up to 3723 steps (for single turn and multitier). Using the teach-in function on the membrane keyboard, the measuring range can be intuitively programmed directly on the device in just a few clicks.

A current signal of 4-20 mA or a voltage signal of 0-10 V is output depending on the device version.

Compact 36 mm absolute encoder with up to 3723 steps (for single turn and multitier)
Servo flange
Radial cable connection
Analog interface 4 to 20 mA or 0 to 10 V
Programming via keypad on the encoder
IP65 protection class
Operating temperature: –30 °C to +80 °C

Intuitive configuration of the measuring range directly on the device using membrane keyboard (teach-in function) saves time
and requires no special expertise.
The compact size (36-mm format) allows the encoder to be used in confined spaces and thus provides greater freedom for development and machine design.
The analogue interfaces (current/voltage) offer a low-cost solution for detecting the position and path, and thereby help to reduce overall system costs.
