Encoders

Encoders are sensors used to measure position, speed, direction of motion, and other types of motion. They are used to detect changes in physical properties such as speed, position, rotation, and other such measures. They can be used for a variety of applications, from encoders and speed sensors on industrial or commercial machinery, to accuracy and calibration in aerospace and automotive applications.

The PEC11R-4215K-N0024 is a rotary encoder which uses two methods of detecting the rotation of a shaft. It uses Quadrature, which is a two-channel system, where the two channels have different phases so that the direction of rotation can be determined, and Pulse Train, which is a one-channel system that sends a train of pulses that are counted in order to determine the speed and position of the shaft.

Application Field

The PEC11R-4215K-N0024 rotary encoder is well-suited for applications requiring economical solutions as well as motion control systems that require precise position feedback and speed monitoring. It is commonly used in many industries for feedback control and speed monitoring, including automotive, aerospace, appliance, medical, and industrial machinery. It is also used for large scale production cycles in industries such as packing, assembly lines, food & beverage, and printing.

Working Principle

The working principle of the PEC11R-4215K-N0024 is based on two sensing elements. The first element is an array of contact pads, and the second is an optical sensor whose objective is to emitter and detect the light pulses in the absence of an obstacle. The device works by sensing the presence of an obstacle and generating a signal when it is detected. The array of contact pads consist of two detector elements organized in four contact pads which are placed in a circular pattern. The optical sensor provides a separate signal when an object is sensed. Both signals are sent to the output terminal where they are combined and then compared to determine the direction of rotation. The rotation may be in either a clockwise or counterclockwise direction.The PEC11R-4215K-N0024 can also measure the speed of rotation and sends the feedback signal back as a voltage or a current signal using pulse-width modulation for further processing, making it very suitable for controlling motor speed.

Conclusion

The PEC11R-4215K-N0024 is an economical and suitable alternative to mechanical encoders. It is used for feedback control, speed monitoring, rotation detection, and other motion detecting applications. It combines the elements of quadrature and one-channel pulse train technology into a single device in order to measure the speed and position of a shaft.
