The H38 is an explosion proof version of the field proven H25 encoder series.
The same Explosion Proof rated encoder as the H38 Incremental, in an absolute encoder version with output up to 13 bits of resolution. When your application needs the ability to recover position information quickly after a power loss and you are operating in a hazardous area – the H38 Absolute is the solution for your requirements.
Explosion Proof Housing are an enclosure that can withstand an internal explosion of the most volatile gas-to-air mixture that can penetrate into the interior of the enclosure. The encoder’s enclosure contains the explosion without damage and without allowing the flame to leave the enclosure through any joints or other openings.
These encoders are ideal for use in petroleum services industries, solvent refining operations, spray painting applications, and explosive dust environments.
