BEI’s HS25 combines the rugged, heavy-duty features usually associated with shafted encoders into a hollow-shaft style. Its design includes dual bearings and shaft seals for NEMA 4, 13, and IP65 environmental ratings, a rugged metal housing, and a cable gland. This low profile design, just 2” deep, is easily mounted on a through shaft. Securing the encoder to the shaft is simple with a collet-style single screw clamp. A tether arm and tether block are available options to maintain housing stability during operation.
The new GEN2 Generation includes enhanced protections and performances improvements (reverse voltage protection, overvoltage protection, short circuit protection, increased frequency response, increased line driver current and increased noise immunity).
Sensata offers HS25 Series variations with intrinsic safety, non-incendive and non-sparking ratings for use in certain hazardous locations.
