Overview
Standard-housing Parallel absolute encoders SAS-M58 provide deterministic position feedback for industrial automation systems. Using a parallel interface, these encoders deliver real-time absolute position data to PLCs, controllers, and motion systems, ensuring precise control of machinery.
The 58 mm standard housing ensures mechanical robustness, compact size, and flexible integration into new or retrofit applications.
Key Functional Features
- Parallel absolute output: deterministic single-turn and multi-turn position feedback
- Single-turn resolution: up to 21 bits
- Multi-turn capability: up to 14 bits
- Stable operation in electrically noisy industrial environments
- Environmental protection: IP65 / IP67
- Shock and vibration resistance suitable for industrial machinery
These features enable reliable feedback for conveyor systems, packaging machines, and general automation equipment.
Mechanical Design and Mounting
SAS-M58 Parallel encoders feature standard housing supporting:
- Clamp flange – flexible, repeatable mounting
- Blind hollow shaft flange – allows direct integration on existing shafts
This housing ensures mechanical stability while supporting diverse machine layouts.
Shaft Interface Options
- Solid Shaft – recommended when shaft alignment is controllable, offering a stable mechanical reference
- Blind Hollow Shaft – ideal for retrofit or space-constrained installations
Proper selection guarantees long-term mechanical reliability and accurate position feedback.
Environmental Suitability
- Designed for indoor industrial environments
- Operates within moderate temperature ranges
- Controlled exposure to dust and moisture
Correct cable routing and grounding help maintain signal integrity.
Typical Applications
- Servo drives and rotary positioning axes
- Conveyor and material handling systems
- Packaging and assembly machinery
- Retrofit replacements for legacy parallel feedback devices
The standard housing allows adaptation to various machine layouts with minimal redesign.
Engineering Selection Summary
SAS-M58 standard-housing Parallel absolute encoders combine deterministic parallel feedback with a robust mechanical design. Engineers must consider shaft interface, flange type, and environmental conditions to ensure reliable long-term operation.
