Encoders: 62H2222-H9-050C

Encoders are commonly used in motion control systems due to their ability to measure the rotation and linear position of a moving object. Encoders generate a digital signal output based on the relative motion of a shaft or wheel as it rotates and converts the motion into a binary output that can be used by controller systems. The 62H2222-H9-050C encoder is a rotary optical encoder that is designed for accurate performance in a variety of applications.

Application Field: The 62H2222-H9-050C has a wide range of applications including: factory automation, robotics, medical equipment, CNC machine tools, printing equipment, vehicles, and stepper motors. It is particularly well suited for applications that need precise position or velocity control. Its is also suited for applications requiring higher speed and acceleration, such as servo drives. This is why encoders are suitable for use in a variety of motion control systems.

Working Principle: The 62H2222-H9-050C uses a two-channel absolute optical encoder. It consists of two components, an LED source and a receive silicone. The light is directed onto the silicone, which is then transferred onto the first row of coding elements and onto a memory array. The silicone has two rows of coding elements to provide two channels of position feedback. The memory array contains the position information of the position feedback. The memory array is composed of 64 storage locations divided into 2 banks. Each position information is stored in the corresponding storage locations.

When the encoders angular resolution is set to 180 PPR (Pulse Per Revolution), each channel outputs 90 pulses per revolution. On each channel, the number of pulses represents five degrees of rotation. When the output signal is open collector or tri-state type, a multiturn counter is used to provide a full 360 degree rotation. This ensures that the position information remains accurate even when the motor moves over multiple rotations.

The 62H2222-H9-050C also features a fast response time that enables a faster response to position or speed requests. It has a high centerline tolerance of up to 0.008 inches without loss of performance. This makes it suitable for use in applications that require higher levels of precision, such as robotics and automation.

The 62H2222-H9-050C also offers a wide range of digital outputs and analog input interfaces, allowing the user to choose the most appropriate output for their application. It also offers built-in protection against electrical noise and over-currents, as well as protection from dust, moisture and extreme temperatures.

Overall, the 62H2222-H9-050C is an accurate and reliable absolute optical encoder that is ideal for applications requiring position or velocity control. Its wide range of features and digital outputs make it suitable for a variety of motion control applications.
