POSITAL‘s kit encoders offer a unique combination of accuracy, reliability and cost efficiency. Absolute measurement versions provide 17 bit electrical resolution and multiturn position measurements with a range of more than one million revolutions.

• Electrical Resolution: Up to 17 Bit, Multiturn: Up to 32 Bit
• Accuracy: 0.1°
• Compact Size: 36 mm diameter, 24.2 mm Height
• Operating Temperature: -40 to +105°C
• Auto Calibration − No Complex Equipment
• Extensive Diagnostic Coverage
• Various Programmable Parameters

POSITAL’s contact free measurement technology has no moving parts and is highly resistant to shock and vibration. POSITAL’s kit encoders are available with several non-proprietary electrical interfaces including BISS and SSI for absolute measurements. Additional protocols based on the RS485 interface can be implemented.

• Absolute Multiturn & Incremental Interface
• Electrical Interface: BiSS C, BiSS Line, SSI, RS485
• No Battery – No Maintenance
• No Ball Bearings & Compact Design
• Insensitive to Dust and Moisture
• High Shock and Vibration Resistance

Making your transition from incremental to absolute position sensing easy, POSITAL provides a full line of versions that are mechanical drop in replacement for common US Digital and Broadcom (Avago) incremental kit models.

• Same Footprints as E5 and HEDS-5500 Models
• Various Hub Diameters from 4 mm to 10 mm (and 1/4 to 3/8 inch)
• Identical Assembly Procedure - No Training Required
• Magnetic Technology Which Is Generally More Robust Than Optical
• Improved Connectivity via M12 Connector Additional Available

The energy harvesting system is based on the Wiegand effect and eliminates the need for backup batteries or complex gear systems.

A built-in self-calibration capability can compensate for small sensor-to-shaft alignment errors.
