For real-time communication: Industrial Ethernet encoders with EtherCAT interface.
The absolute encoders Multiturn Sendix 5868 / 5888 with 2nd-generation EtherCAT interface and optical sensors can be used in all applications with EtherCAT technology. The data communication is based on CAN over EtherNet and is ideally suited for real-time applications. These encoders are available with shafts up to a maximum diameter of 10 mm or as blind hollow shafts up to 15 mm.
Reliable
- EtherCAT conformance tested.
- Integration of the latest slave – EtherCAT stack from Beckhoff, Version 5.01.
- Ideally suited for use in harsh outdoor environments, thanks to IP67 protection and rugged housing construction.
Flexible
- Use of CoE (CAN over EtherNet).
- Genuine new position information as a result of minimal cycle time of 62.5 μs in the DC mode.
- Faster, easier error-free connection thanks to M12 connectors.
- Supports Hot Connect.
