PEC11-4220F-S0012

Encoders are rotating and linear electronic devices used to detect position, track motion, and count objects in automated manufacturing and robotic systems. PEC11-4220F-S0012 is a type of rotary encoder, a device used to measure the angular position of a shaft having a rotating disc at its end.

Application Field

The PEC11-4220F-S0012 is specifically designed to be mounted as an indexer on motor shafts, allowing the detection of angular position. It is primarily intended for industrial use, and can be employed in a variety of applications, from monitoring the position of a motor shaft in motor control, to tracking the motion of objects such as robotic arm joint positions.

The encoder is preset to operate over a range of 360 degrees and can detect periods of rotation, with a high degree of accuracy and resolution. It can also be employed as a potentiometer and is therefore suitable for use with the majority of motor and gearbox shafts.

Working Principle

The PEC11-4220F-S0012 uses a disc with a number of “slots” evenly distributed around its circumference. As the disc is rotated, a series of electrical signals is generated at the slots, allowing for the measurement of the angular position of the shaft. The signals generated are used as the input for a processor, which outputs a signal proportional to the angular position of the shaft.

The PEC11-4220F-S0012 is a versatile and robust encoder, offering durability and reliability for a variety of applications. It is simple to install and integrate with existing systems, requiring no external power or other components. With its superior performance in all conditions and its wide range of applications, the PEC11-4220F-S0012 is the perfect choice for any industrial needs.
