SIZE 15 MAGNETIC ENCODER RESISTS SHOCK, VIBRATION, AND COLD

Automated Control Engineering (A.C.E.) in partnership with AMCI introduce a heavy-duty size 15 magnetic encoder that resists shock, vibration, and cold temperatures.

Based on a magnetic design, AMCI's ME15 rotary shaft encoder is available in either SSI or Analog output versions. Designed for cost sensitive applications that require bullet-proof reliability, the ME15 magnetic encoder measures just less than 1.5" in diameter and is engineered for heavy-duty operation across a variety of industries, such as use on construction machinery, gantry cranes, filling plants, utility vehicles, and any industrial application classified as heavy-duty.

The encoder's IP67 rating protects against dust and moisture, and the sensor's compact design only relies on two components, ensuring trouble free operation. Plus, AMCI’s ME15 encoder boasts an operating and storage temperature range of -40ºC to 85ºC, capable of withstanding various environmental conditions.

  • Ideal for high-shock and vibration applications
  • IP67 rating (dust tight, water tight)
  • Compact low cost design
  • 10 bit resolution
  • Single or Multiplex applications
  • (2) connection options
  • Servo mounting styles
