Avtron HS6A Optical Rotary Absolute Encoder

HS6A absolute rotary hollow shaft encoders fit shafts from 0.3" to 0.6" [8-15mm], and offer superior durability compared to ordinary optical absolute encoders. Also available:  AV6A solid shaft flange-mounted models, HS6M magnetic absolute encoders, HS40 severe-duty absolute magnetic encoders that fit shafts 5/8 - 1 1/8" [16-30mm].

HS6A encoder have superior shaft seals and bearings that stay sealed to keep contaminants out, despite temperature cycles or liquid sprays. HS6A encoder seals are protected by mechanical barriers to prevent flexing or failure.

The HS6A offers a broad range of communication options, from parallel output and SSI to the latest Profibus and Ethernet standards.
